Product Description:
Scott Rae's Moral Choices is a primary textbook in ethics. Specifically, it focuses on what is called normative ethics - that is, the discipline that produces moral norms or rules as its end product. So it explores how to make decisions in individual and social behavior, and how to judge what is right and wrong in both general and specific circumstances. The book deals with (1) general issues such as the biblical foundations for resolving ethical questions, a brief history of ethical thought, ethical systems, and leading philosophers, and the pros and cons of trying to legislate morality; and (2) specific issues such as abortion, reproductive technologies, euthanasia, capital punishment, war, and sexuality. This edition has a new chapter on genetic technologies and human cloning, reflects substantial changes in the chapters on euthanasia and reproductive technologies, and updates other matters.
