This is the definitive companion to the study of ethics. It
provides students with an accessible, comprehensive and
philosophically rigorous introduction to the major thinkers, issues
and debates. Ideal for use on undergraduate courses, but also of
lasting value for postgraduate students, the structure and content
of this textbook closely reflect the way ethics is studied.
Thematically structured, the text provides a historical overview of
the subject and a comprehensive introduction to the main branches
of ethics: meta-ethics, normative ethics and applied ethics. The
book also includes coverage of key aspects of value-theory and key
issues concerning agency and moral responsibility. It applies
ethics to contemporary issues such as climate change, the
environment, development, poverty and war. Crucially, the book
encourages students to do ethics for themselves, equipping the
reader with a wide-ranging grasp of the discipline in all its
central areas of contemporary study and reflection. Robin
Attfield's cogent and thorough analysis is supplemented by
student-friendly features, including chapter summaries, study
questions, exercises, and a comprehensive guide to further reading
and other resources.
