This collection of classic and contemporary readings in ethics presents sharp, competing views on a wide range of fundamentally important topics including moral relativism and objectivism, ethical egoism, value theory, utilitarianism, deontological ethics, virtue ethics, ethics and religion, and applied ethics.
