"Ethics in Practice is an extraordinary anthology. Not only has LaFollette done an excellent job selecting seminal essays on the crucial issues, but he has lined up authors famous for their abilities to bring their deep theoretical insights to bear on everyday moral questions." Christopher Heath Wellman, Georgia State University "This is perhaps the best collection of articles on applied ethics that I know. It covers many of the areas that comprise the general topic, with articles of note, by philosophers of quality. It is a superb volume not only for teaching applied ethics but also for introducing students to rigorous thinking in philosophy." R. G. Frey, Bowling Green State University "A good aid for introducing non-philosophers to ethical problems without over-simplifying matters. LaFollette has succeeded in finding texts that are not only representative but also accessible." Jan Jans, Ethical Perspectives, Ethics in Practice is an extraordinary anthology.
