"This new edition of Ethics in Practice offers a cornucopia of 72 expertly-edited texts – both canonical and contemporary – on a wonderfully wide selection of topics in moral theory and applied ethics. Students, teachers, and researchers will find in it a practically endless source of thought-provoking and conversation-sparking readings."
STUART GREEN, Distinguished Professor of Law, Rutgers University
“Those of us who write and teach in practical ethics owe a debt of gratitude to Hugh LaFollette for assembling this superb collection of important contributions to the core theoretical questions and pressing contemporary issues in moral philosophy.”
