Everyday Morality

The book is aimed at courses that combine theory and applied (practical) ethics, with an emphasis on the practical topics of everyday interest. This book is an introduction to the philosophy of morality as it applies to practical moral needs. Moral character is explored in all its dimensions: virtues, vices, attitudes, emotions, commitments, and personal relationships, in addition to right and wrong conduct. The aim is to stimulate personal reflection and group dialogue, rather than offer solutions. It seeks to sharpen ideas which we use as tools in coping responsibly with our daily lives.
