About this product

Product Information

For undergraduate courses in ethics. With a clear presentation, Ethics: Theory and Practice educates readers about ethical theory and has them apply what they learn to specific classic and contemporary moral problems (lying, cheating, establishing ethical business practices, honoring ethical obligations in medicine, etc.). Jacques P. Thiroux first wrote this text 1977 in order to educate readers about ethical theory and its applications in a way that beginning students could understand. The result is an accessible text that isn't too technical and doesn't plunge into complex readings without sufficient background.

For the premium price and description as new condition, I was disappointed that this book was not wrapped or carefully packaged and arrived in very worn condition as if used.

  • the book was great

    I loved the book but unfortunately my teacher changed the book to a book that he wrote. I am stuck with this book and will have to reference back to it later.

  • Decent textbook

    I bought it for a Contemporary Ethical Issues class I'm taking. I have only started reading it but it is not difficult for me to follow and understand the applicable concepts.

  • Great Book!!!

    I have no complaints about this book!!! My class was for the Maymester and I usually sell all of my books once the semester is over, but this one i'm KEEPING because its so interesting!
