Thinking Critically About Ethical Issues
by Vincent Ruggiero
On This Page
Description
This concise, accessible text emphasizes doing ethical analysis and thinking critically about ethical issues, rather than focusing on ethical theory or the history of ethics. Ruggiero's readers are invited to apply ethical principles to issues that exemplify the kinds of moral challenges encountered in everyday life. It engages students' minds, stimulates enthusiasm, and makes teaching more effective and rewarding.Tags

This book is an excellent introductory into the study of the field of ethics. You can start to understand that ethics is more than just right and wrong by reading the book. It delves deep into the analysis and thoughts behind modern ethical dilemmas. It also presents us with several important figures in the history of ethics as well. For a college textbook this was highly readable and enjoyable!
A book I am being forced to read for my Soc. 120 class. This book while informative is extreamly dry.
