"An outstanding text for a graduate-level course on contemporary metaethicsA collection such as this has been needed for some time now and will quickly replace the bulky course-packs that (up to now) professors have had to assemble on their own."--Jordan J. Lindberg, Central Michigan University "An excellent collection, with a very helpful introductory essay by the editors. [The] book as a whole is challenging."--Carol Tauer, College of St. Catherine "Nice selection of topics and author."--O. A. Robinson, Central Methodist College "Excellent selections that span theories and a nice theoretical overview of ethical studies."--Emily Dial-Driver, Rogers University "A first rate and wide-ranging collection of classic contemporary writings in metaethics, introduced by an essay that nicely puts the whole thing in context."--Mark van Roojen, University of Nebraska-Lincoln "Almost ideal. Includes most all of the main articles I want to assign in an upper-level metaethics class."--James Dreier, Brown University "This text would fit in well with my senior ethics seminar readings because it presents an array of interesting metaethical issues."--William Hannaford, Champlain College "An excellent selection--extremely useful for upper-level courses on moral theory."--Troy Jollimore, California State University, Chico
