Synopsis

This well-known classroom-developed course, first published in 1991 to great acclaim, is designed specifically for students of General Studies, Philosophy and Religious Education at sixth-form and college level. Primary texts on ethics and ethical theory are combined with accessible and stimulating commentary, comprehension exercises and essay questions, set out in handy units of work which can be spread over the school or college year. The course bridges both the arts and the sciences, encouraging students to debate the different positions of authors on subjects such as justice and punishment, free-will and euthanasia, duty and civil disobedience. Now widely used in schools and colleges, it has proved extremely useful to students of all disciplines, demanding precision in language and clarity in argument.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Dr. Michael Palmer has taught extensively in schools and universities on both sides of the Atlantic. Following the prestigious award of the Alexander von Humboldt Fellowship at the University of Marburg, he was invited to found a philosophy course at Manchester Grammar School, where he remained for eight years as the Head of the Department of Religion and Philosophy. The course attracted national attention, and much of the material covered was based on this book.
