The Second Edition of this bestselling book is now split into two parts. Part I considers the foundations of every person's values and provides a background to moral philosophy. Part II examines key ethical issues and how they determine practice, such as using power, allocating resources, treating others with respect and celebrating diversity.
For the Second Edition, two new chapters have been added to the book, on:
- The political dimension in ethical decision making
- Realism as a guiding ethical principle
