PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Bryan Hall is Dean of the College of Contemporary Liberal Studies and Professor of Liberal Arts at Regis University, USA.
An expert and well-laid-out tour through various approaches to ethics … Hall knows what he is talking about and writes in nice clear crisp prose. * Times Higher Education * Refusing to break the “fourth wall,” this book takes a refreshing approach to otherwise well-traveled material. A welcome addition for anyone seeking to engage the interests and imagination of students while also providing a substantive introduction to ethical theory and practice. Highly recommended. * Robert Smid, Senior Lecturer, Curry College, USA * A remarkable book, offering a highly engaging and original treatment of core issues in ethics and moral theory using zombie horror conventions. Hall has an excellent grasp of the normative ethical theories and meta-ethical views considered as well as a deep affinity for and familiarity with zombie horror writing. He deftly investigates an impressive range of substantive moral issues that are fruitfully explored by taking this novel approach to thinking about ethics and morality. This book would be a terrific ethics primer for an Introduction to Philosophy course, and it will undoubtedly attract a broader general audience, including horror genre fans. * Anne Margaret Baxley, Associate Professor of Philosophy, Washington University in St. Louis, USA * [A] wonderfully engaging primer for students of philosophy, while also serving as a fascinating fiction novel for fans of the zombie genre. The ethical principles are firmly based in Kantianism, but often offer post-apocalyptic scenarios that would challenge even your most deeply held beliefs, and that’s a good thing! Because you should always be prepared and as we say; what you don’t know can eat you. * Zombie Research Society *
