Product Information

A Practical Companion to Ethics is an accessibly written, concise introduction to the basic attitudes and skills that make ethics work, like thinking for oneself, creative and integrative problem-solving, and keeping an open mind. This unique volume illuminates the broad kinds of practical intelligence required in moral judgment, complementing the narrower theoretical considerations that often dominate ethics courses. It offers practical instruction in problem-solving by demonstrating how to frame an ethical problem and deal effectively with ethical disagreements. This book also addresses issues of the heart--the call to responsiveness and care that underlies formal ethical theories. Appendices offer students advice about writing papers and offer instructors a range of creative and participatory ways to teach ethics. The optimistic tone and brisk pace of the narrative provide an entertaining and intelligent guide to "everyday" morality. This highly practical volume is ideal for courses in introductory ethics, with applications in any course related to critical thinking and applied ethics.

Reviews
"What a great little gift from Anthony Weston to all who want to teach and learn ethics. It is a coherently and humanly written 'conversation' that distills the kinds of things we discuss in class and sets the ethos of an ethics course. It is rich with references, yet a conversation that givesus the benefits of Weston's teaching experience and wisdom. In true Weston style, it is a book that asks students to bring their hearts and minds to the understanding of everyday problems, of fashioning their integrity, and of guiding them to spend time on questions." --Indira Nair, Carnegie MellonUniversity, "Best text I've used in my introductory ethics course. My students respond enthusiastically to Weston's observations and suggestions."--Verna Gehring, Hood College, "This well-crafted volume is a valuable addition to undergraduate coursesin Ethics. The language is illuminating and the work concisely introducesstudents to the process of ethical thinking. In addition, a helpful narrative,'How to Write an Ethics Paper,' enables students to have a much-needed practicaltool before them. A most useful work."--Harold C. Warlick, Jr., High PointUniversity, "This book eloquently fills the gaps between a standardtheory-plus-problems text and real-life decision making. The suggestions givenin the appendix for teachers are wonderful and daring."--Robert M. Gordon,University of Missouri, St. Louis, "Finally, a book has been published that explains the basics of ethics and their study in language that is easily understood by students. Many of the problems that students confront when studying ethics, and that I have struggled to explain, are clearly addressed by Weston."--Terry L. Derting,Murray State University, "A very clear exposition of questions that introductory students need to address but are unable to formulate. A perfect supplement to standard texs in the area."--Ben Mulvey, Nova Southwestern University, "A useful companion to introductory ethics courses. The book is writtenwith heart and would serve as a balance to the more theoretical aspects ofethics courses. I like the emphasis on re-framing problems; too often ethics istaught as dealing with dilemmas. The "discovery paper" is a novel approach thatI will try in my class."--Darryl Mehring, University of Colorado atDenver, "A useful companion to introductory ethics courses.
