Details on the Third Edition
Environmental Ethics is one of my three texts on applied ethics (the other two being Business Ethics and Medical Ethics). The idea behind each book is to begin with theoretical material about ethics, in general, and then some comments on the underpinnings of this particular direction of applied ethics. Next, the texts take up important issues in the practice of the given area of practice (the environment, the business community, the practice of medicine). Finally, are chapters on contemporary issues in public policy.
