Rezensionen

--Hugh LaFollette, University of South Florida, St. Petersburg
"This is a superb collection of engaging and specially commissioned paired essays advancing competing solutions to fourteen important practical moral issues. The addition of six new topics makes this edition even more valuable than the first."

Praise for the First Edition

--Christopher Morris, University of Maryland
"It's hard to think of a better general introduction to contemporary debates in applied ethics and public policy. The editors have enlisted well-known philosophers to pair off on particular controversies, and they do so ably and instructively. This volume will work well as a textbook for university courses."

--David Schmidtz, University of Arizona
"Great writers joining debate on great topics. Cohen and Wellman have assembled an admirably compact volume, given its breadth. It will be of considerable service to teachers of moral problems courses and to anyone with an interest in the cutting edge of applied ethics."
