Reviews
[This book] is an excellent companion to The Fundamentals of Ethics and a strong anthology in its own right. Indeed, I cannot envision a better anthology that meets similar length and price constraints. Shafer-Landau is an exceptionally clear writer." Robert Farley, Assistant Professor of Humanities at Hillsborough Community College
The writing style is excellent. Shafer-Landau does a very good job of summarizing the content of the individual readings. It covers a good mix of theoretical and applied topics, and provides a good mix of classic readings and newer readings, and that the price is right." Daniel Star, Associate Professor of Philosophy at Boston University
The text is an excellent source of primary materials for an ethics course. The study questions require students to engage in more than a cursory reading or skimming of the text, forcing them to seriously weigh the content of the chapters they read. It is approachable for our student demographic, the ancillaries are exemplary, and the content if both text reflects how instructors may approach ethics, either historically or topically." John Holder, Associate Professor of Philosophy at Pensacola State College
