Philosophers Take On the World, Paperback / softback Book

Philosophers Take On the World Paperback / softback

Edited by David (Uehiro Centre for Practical Ethics, Oxford) Edmonds

Paperback / softback

Description

Every day the news shows us provoking stories about what's going on in the world, about events which raise moral questions and problems.

In Philosophers Take On the World a team of philosophers get to grips with a variety of these controversial issues, from the amusing to the shocking, in short, engaging, often controversial pieces.

Covering topics from guns to abortion, the morality of drinking alone, hating a sports team, and being rude to cold callers, the essays will make you think again about the judgments we make on a daily basis and the ways in which we choose to conduct our lives.

Philosophers Take On the World is based on the blog run by the Uehiro Centre for Practical Ethics at the University of Oxford, one of the world's leading centres for applied ethics.
