Abstract

This book is an introduction to ethical theory, and is intended for people who have had no previous exposure to philosophy. It might be used with profit as a text in a high school philosophy course. In his efforts to be clear to the uninitiated reader, Bond ends each chapter with a summary in point form and some “Questions for Thought.” In some early chapters, he even includes charts and graphs summarizing and collating points in the text. At the end of each part, there are suggestions for further reading, and there is a useful glossary at the end of the book.
