Ethical Choices by Richard Burnor
Ethical Choices is a concise and highly accessible introduction to ethics, ideal for students with little or no background in philosophy. Employing a student-friendly writing style, the text surveys a wide range of ethical theories and perspectives, and includes a variety of compelling case studies addressing practical issues students can relate to such as the drinking age, credit card debt, grade inflation, and video games.
It's clear that the authors are excellent teachers: the details they include in the text, and the apparatus surrounding the text, are obviously designed by people who have spent ample time thinking about how best to connect with undergraduatesThe cases themselves are great: current; containing enough detail without being overly complex; and followed by good questions. * Bob Fischer, Texas State University *
Ethical Choices is extremely comprehensive, super clear, and very practically oriented. * Bas van der Vossen, University of North Carolina, Greensboro *
As an introduction to ethical theory, this book is thorough in coverage, unusually concise in its treatment of topics while still being conceptually sound, clearly presented, and yet with fewer total pages compared to other books in the area. It has pedagogically and practically useful study questions and case studies. * Dana Flint, Lincoln University *
