Rezensionen

Praise for previous editions:

"Basic Ethics is an unusually rewarding text. It takes the student through central topics of normative ethics and metaethics, but it does so in a critical and constructive way that sheds new light on their basic issues. Boylan also adds helpful sections on applied ethics, as well as challenging and illuminating discussion of the importance of personal worldviews-both for moral philosophy and for human life as a whole. The book is written in a style that is at once engaging and rigorous."
Alan Gewirth, University of Chicago



"I really like the underlying theme of a worldview throughout the book. The opportunity for students to reflect on values, where they stem from, and what is right and wrong and why is something everyone should explore."
Jeff Anstine, North Central College, Naperville, IL

"Basic Ethics nicely combines a survey of the main contending ethical theories with a reasonable procedure for enabling students to select among these. It should make an excellent text!"
James Sterba, University of Notre Dame
