An Introduction to Moral Philosophy

Empower students to think critically about ethical theories and moral dilemmas.

From his influential scholarship to his popular writings to his appearances on the BBC, Jonathan Wolff has a knack for making moral philosophy vivid and exciting for any audience. In An Introduction to Moral Philosophy, he wields this talent to deliver a text that students enjoy reading. In addition to surveying the basics of ethical theory and critical thinking, Wolff guides students through debates about some of today’s most urgent moral issues, including the ethics of race, gender, artificial intelligence, and public health. The text invites students to think for themselves about real-world issues and provides them with an accurate, appealing sense of what moral philosophy is all about.
