Reviews

"Teachers of introductory ethics and applied ethics classes will have a hard time resisting Charles Cardwell' Hornbook Ethics . I am a big fan. The author has a remarkable gift for briefly introducing the basics of moral philosophy, and his book is so clear and concise that any serious student will be able to learn much from it. Not every philosopher will share its views or priorities of course, but these are set forth with such clarity that it will be easy to use even disagreements as teaching moments. I am unaware of better introduction to ethics whose brevity approaches this one'." --Peter Tramel, Department of Philosophy, Fort Hays State University
