Thinking Critically About Ethical Issues - Softcover

Every chapter concludes with approximately fifteen case studies.
Unique organization: The text first provides an overview of the need for ethics and then focuses on strategies for effective ethical decision making; the history of ethics and the key contributions of important moral philosophers are presented in a concluding chapter.
An appendix on writing helps students draft and revise their papers.
Brief and affordable, this is a perfect supplement for introductory ethics and applied moral problems courses.

This accessible supplementary text emphasizes the doing of philosophy rather than focusing on ethical theory or the history of ethics. With the aid of the text, students apply ethical principles to case studies that exemplify the kinds of moral issues that permeate their everyday lives.
