In this clear and accessible book, Gernot Bohme places
philosophical ethics in the context of our individual and social
lives. Arguing against the conception of ethics as a body of
knowledge, Bohme defines morality as a matter of 'serious
questions'. In the case of an individual, a serious question is one
that determines that person's mode of living. In the case of
society, a serious question is one that shapes our social norms.
In Ethics in Context, Bohme explores the key areas of moral
living and moral discourse. He examines some of the urgent issues
affecting society today, such as the moral implications of
reproductive technology, man's mastery over nature and the right of
citizenship.
This book is a lucid and engaging guide to ethics, which will be
of great interest to students of philosophy and, indeed, to all
those interested in the subject.
