The Moral of the Story: An Introduction to Ethics

Rating:
Summary: Useful and a good book to snare reluctant students.
Review: I am a philosophy instructor at a community college, and have been using this book as a text for both Intro to Philosophy and Applied Ethics. My students love the subject matter addressed, and the ease with which it can be read. I incorporate some of the movies and stories suggested at the end of the chapters and now I have students who come back in later semesters to add their suggestions for viewing/reading from things they have seen recently. A great book for getting the reluctant student to start "doing" philosophy and analyzing things they see and read using philosophical principles addressed in this book.

Summary: An excellent choice for philosophers and film lovers!
Review: I highly recommend this book to students, teachers, and anyone who wants to get more out of their movie rentals. Rosenstand uses literature and films to introduce the reader to some of the main themes and theories of moral philosophy. It's great for "Introduction to Ethics" courses, or as a resource for video ideas to spice up your classes -- or your Saturday nights.

Summary: A great book which deals with Ethics and philosophers.
Review: I read and studied this book during my third year at UCO. This was our text book for the semester. The class was called "Contemporay Moral Problems" dealing with philosophers and their beliefs in ethics and morals. Religion, women, and right and wrong is covered in this book. This is a great book for anyone who wants to know more on ethics and philosophers
