It gets students to struggle with the big questions of morality while it also relates these questions to practical issues, especially racism, global warming, moral education, and abortion. Providing a practical method for thinking about moral issues--a method based largely on the golden rule--it is written simply and clearly throughout. College students who are new to philosophy or who have already taken an introductory-level course will benefit from its use. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKey Features: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eServes as either the sole textbook for a lower-level introduction to ethics\/moral philosophy course or a supplementary text for a more advanced undergraduate ethics course.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides clear, direct writing throughout, making each chapter easily accessible for an engaged undergraduate student.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOffers a philosophically rigorous presentation of the golden rule.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes helpful study aids, including: bolded technical terms; boxes for key ideas; summaries, study questions, and suggested readings for each chapter; and a comprehensive glossary\/index at the back of the book.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eKey Additions to the \u003cem\u003eThird Edition\u003c\/em\u003e: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cli\u003eEach chapter now offers additional, optional sections on more advanced topics for students wishing to dig deeper into the material (advanced topics include: Kohlberg's moral psychology, whether morality is gendered, types of relativism, early Greek ethics, Hume, and the prisoner's dilemma).\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOther improvements include: better chapter organization, clearer explanations, improved examples, new names for key arguments, and a better Kindle version.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAn updated and improved EthiCola instructional program (with a score-processing program, teacher's manual, and class slides), which can be downloaded from the web for free (from www.harrycola.com\/ec or www.harryhiker.com\/ec).\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHarry J.
