Title: Philosophical ethics
First published: 1998
Description: Philosophical Ethics introduces students to ethics from a distinctively philosophical perspective, one that weaves together central ethical questions such as "What has value?" and "What are our moral obligations?" with fundamental philosophical issues such as "What is value?" and "What can a moral obligation consist in?" Throughout, the reader is invited to do - rather than just read about - philosophical ethics and, in doing so, to think through questions that face all thoughtful human beings.

Themes include the nature of value and moral obligation, freedom and choice, human flourishing, excellence and merit, radical critiques of morality, and the importance of relationships for human life.
