Public debate on ethical matters would be a good deal more sophisticated if the pundits pronouncing on current issues such as Kosovo and GM food had read this book.' - Network'Critical Reasoning in Ethics offers a practical hands-on approach in dealing with ethical issues, and does not presume any prior knowledge of moral theories.' - Philsophers' Magazine
'Ann Thompson writes in a clear and lively style ... I have rarely read a book where it has proved quite impossible to let the words slip past the eyes without the mind being forced to keep awake.' - The Expository Times
