Ethics in Practice : An Anthology Paperback / softback

Edited by Hugh LaFollette

Part of the Blackwell Philosophy Anthologies series

Paperback / softback

Description

The fourth edition of Ethics in Practice offers an impressive collection of 70 new, revised, and classic essays covering 13 key ethical issues.

Essays integrate ethical theory and the discussion of practical moral problems into a text that is ideal for introductory and applied ethics courses. * A fully updated and revised edition of this authoritative anthology of classic and contemporary essays covering a wide range of ethical and moral issues * Integrates ethical theory with discussions of practical moral problems, and includes three essays on theory written specifically for this volume * Nearly half of the essays are written or revised exclusively for this anthology, which now also features eleven essays new to this edition, as well as expanded sections discussing theory, reproductive technologies, war and terrorism, and animals * Content allows teachers to discuss discrete practical issues (e.g., euthanasia), focus on the broader grouping of topics (e.g., life and death), or focus on common themes which bridge sections (sexism, moral standing, individualism and community) * Section introductions not only outline the basic issues discussed in the essays, but relate them to theoretical perspectives and practical issues discussed elsewhere in the book. * Guides students with supporting introductory essays on reading philosophy, theorizing about ethics, writing a philosophy paper, and a supporting web site at www.hughlafollette.com/eip4/
