"A great resource for beginning ethics courses. McGinn hardly claims to have the last word on the complex issues he discusses, and students will find many exciting problems and points to take up.". —Owen Flanagan, Duke University.

About this product

Product Information

"A great resource for beginning ethics courses. The book is short and yet it richly embodies the methods of ethical thinking about practical moral problems that are hard for students to learn unless they see them in action. McGinn perspicuously sets out a small set of basic principles and then attacks the problems of our treatment of animals, abortion, sex, censorship, and so on, with a masterful blend of attention to real-life cases and imaginary thought experiments. McGinn hardly claims to have the last word on the complex issues he discusses, and students will find many exciting problems and points to take up." ' Owen Flanagan, Duke University

McGinn at the level of the normal person
I purchased this book for my ethics class and thought that I would not be able to understand the technical philosophical language, but McGinn's style of writing, makes this book very easy to understand. He raises some good points that stimulate your mind. He talks about ethical issues that the normal every day person deals with. This is a book that I will definitely keep in my library.
