Purchase options and add-ons

For undergraduate courses in ethics.

With a clear presentation, Ethics: Theory and Practice educates readers about ethical theory and has them apply what they learn to specific classic and contemporary moral problems (lying, cheating, establishing ethical business practices, honoring ethical obligations in medicine, etc.).

Jacques P. Thiroux first wrote this text 1977 in order to educate readers about ethical theory and its applications in a way that beginning students could understand. The result is an accessible text that isn't too technical and doesn't plunge into complex readings without sufficient background.

“This text is perfect for students who have no background in philosophy.”

-Dr. Marlene San Miguel Groner, SUNY Farmingdale

“Students with little or no background in ethics find it easy to understand and really appreciate the application of theories to real-world problems.”

-Beth Rene Reopnack, DeVry University, Georgia

Needed for an ethics assignment... interesting and thought provoking. A relatively easy read- not that I've read it all, just dipped into it and of course there is a more up to date copy out there in the world!

5.0 out of 5 stars Very through, very readable.

There are two things to consider with a textbook of this sort: how thoroughly does it cover the material, and how well does it manage to communicate that material to the reader? This book succeeds gloriously on both counts. Obviously, if the subject of Philosophy in general and Ethics in particular don't interest you, you won't enjoy this book. But if you have an interest in the subject, and need a basic intro to it, you'd be hard-pressed to find a better one.
