Ethics Study Guide Peter Baron

The Ethics Study Guide is designed to help GCE A level students ask the right questions by unpacking key theories and applications according to structures of thought, and by doing the exercises, to build essay-writing skills step by step. By analysing assumptions and worldviews, and making principles crystal clear, the student is able to build an ethics toolkit which can help answer questions on any applied issue. Business ethics, euthanasia and sexual ethics are considered as applied issues, including discussions on how the major ethical theories of Kant, The utilitarians Bentham and Mill, Fletcher's situation ethics, and Aquinas' natural law theory. Detailed evaluation helps build the critical sense and the book comes with its own website of additional material, peped.org. An essential book for those who wish to be liberated to think philosophically, with rigour and flexibility.
