| 520 #0 - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc | The book serves as an introduction to ethical theory as it applies to environmental issues, and as a casebook on contemporary problems of science, industry, and individual decision-making. It provides a readable, yet philosophically careful survey of the field of environmental ethics. It is comprehensive, covering topics from the relevance of Aristotle's ethics for environmental issues to Deep Ecology and Ecofeminism.-- Concise and easy-to-read.-- The only introductory book that covers both ethical theory and policy.-- Cases and empirical concerns integrated with philosophical discussions. Chapters begin with discussion cases and end with questions for further discussion and suggested readings.-- Epilogue on moral pluralism has been expanded to include a more thorough discussion of objectivity in ethics and diversity among ethical perspectives. |
