Book Synopsis The Triumph of Practice Over Theory in Ethics by : James P. Sterba
Book excerpt: This work combines the two most common approaches used to introduce students or general readers to ethics: the historical and the applied. Using these approaches, Sterba examines traditional ethical theories and disagreements, exploring Aristotelian, Kantian, and utilitarian ethics, as well as their contemporary defenders.
