ETHICS: A PLURALISTIC APPROACH TO MORAL THEORY, FIFTH EDITION provides a comprehensive yet clear introduction to the main traditions in ethical thought, including virtue ethics, utilitarianism, and deontology. Additionally, the book presents a conceptual framework of ethical pluralism to help readers understand the relationship among various theories. Lawrence Hinman, one of the most respected and accomplished professionals in ethics and philosophy education today, presents a text that gives readers plentiful opportunities to explore ethical theory and their own responses to them, using fascinating features such as the 'Ethical Inventory' sections that appear at the beginning and the end of the text. End-of-chapter discussion questions, and the use of current issues and movies help students retain what they've learn and truly comprehend the subject matter.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

I am a Professor Emeritus at Philosophy at the University of San Diego, where I taught philosophy for several decades. My principal interest in the last ten years has been in ethics at the frontiers of science, including issues about search engines, stem cells and regenerative medicine, neuroscience (especially memory and compassion), and robotics. Both of my current books were written in conjunction with teaching courses at USD on these topics, and I am now working on a new book on ethics at the frontiers of science. In addition, I am currently working on two Amazon Singles, one on the movie "Gattaca" and the ethics of enhancement, the other on the movie "Dead Man Walking" and the ethics of the death penalty. Both of these come out of my teaching experience as well. Currently I am researching and writing in New York City.

In 1994, I started my first website--Ethics Updates, http://ethics.sandiego.edu--which is still going today. I am particularly interested in the possibilities offered by multimedia authoring, a medium pioneered in ethics by Robert Cavalier at CMU. I hope to do more int his medium.
