"Written by distinguished philosophical experts these pieces address a full range of issues in ethical and meta-ethical theory, as well as giving a considered voice to the various defenders of ethical anti-theory. As a whole they testify to and exemplify the current vibrancy and richness of work in ethical theory." David Archard (University of St Andrews) "For students, this guide provides helpful introductions to themes and topics which they are to study in more detail, and lucid surveys of other aspects of ethical theory. It will also be read with profit by academics unfamiliar with the field; and some of the papers are not just guides, but original contributions, to the subject." Antony Duff (University of Stirling) "The Guide provides a wide-ranging survey of the major topics in contemporary ethical theory and includes a good amount of new and important work. It should be of use to anyone wanting acquaintance with the subject in its current state." Barbara Herman (UCLA) "The Blackwell Guide to Ethical Theory is, for its size, perhaps the best single-volume resource guide to contemporary ethical theory." Robert B. Louden |
