This book is a collection of twelve essays devoted to Michael
Boylan's important work in moral philosophy, A Just Society. The
collection is thematically organized to mirror Boylan's own volume,
so the first half explores fundamental issues of justification in
ethics while the second half focuses on issues involving ethical
discourse, social justice, and the moral foundations of public
policy. In their critical and engaging essays, the authors
challenge many of the original and controversial arguments
developed and defended by Boylan in his book, and Boylan responds
in a lengthy and philosophically rich reply. The book will appeal
both to philosophers working on the cutting edge of moral and
political theory and to public policy practitioners working to make
society more just

Based on the results of their successful eight-year faculty
seminar, Michael Boylan and James Donahue provide a practical
framework and concrete suggestions for engaging questions of ethics
in the university curriculum. This framework will enable college
and university professors to address a full range of ethical issues
as they arise in classroom discussion, both in the academic
disciplines and in professional education. This book contains the
insights of both a philosopher and a theologian as it draws on
classic theories of ethics in multiple disciplines. It is designed
for use by humanists and theists alike. The book provides means for
educators and students to work through the following kinds of
questions: What ought I to do when faced with ethical choices? What
kinds of persons do we aspire to be? What are the ethical messages
conveyed in our intellectual disciplines? How do the professions
and professional choices reflect ideas of a good society? Ethics
across the Curriculum: A Practice-Based Approach will be an
essential guide for developing curriculum and pedagogical goals to
meet the challenges of ethics education. It will be a great help
for professors, school administrators, and all interested in ethics
in the university context.
