This approach reveals opportunities for more nuanced and evolving ethical positions. It also promotes a culture of civility too often destroyed in politicized debates in scholarly and popular forums. \u003cbr\u003eThe book covers standard issues in metaethics, normative ethics, and applied ethics, such as the objectivism\/subjectivism debate, the consequentialism\/deontology\/virtue ethics\/ethics of care debate, and the abortion debate. It also introduces more advanced issues such as distributive justice and environmental ethics, as well as less standard questions often of interest to laypeople and students, such as whether crime can be eliminated.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Samuel Kahn\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1538195259\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781538195253\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rowman \u0026amp; Littlefield Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/03\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.94d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2025","brand":"Samuel Kahn","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47579793457407,"sku":"9781538195253","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4e3ca189-57ff-4bc9-aa60-1f08eac209bf.jpg?v=1763876690","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/problem-based-ethics-samuel-kahn-9781538195253","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
