Series: Bloomsbury Handbooks

Updated and expanded to represent the fundamental questions at the heart of philosophical ethics today, the second edition of The Bloomsbury Handbook of Ethics covers the key topics in metaethics and normative ethical theory. This edition includes 12 fully revised chapters, and 3 newly commissioned contributions from a range of esteemed academics who provide accessible introductions to their own areas of expertise.

The first part of the book covers the field of metaethics, including subjects such as moral realism, expressivism, constructivism, practical reason, moral psychology, experimental ethics, and evolutionary ethics, as well as two new chapters that respond to ethical debates concerning moral relativism and moral responsibility that enable students and scholars to better navigate this complicated ethical terrain. Moving onto normative ethical theory, the second part of the book ranges across morality and religion, consequentialism, and particularism, as well as Kantian, virtue, feminist, and Confucian ethics.

This comprehensive edition provides a one-stop resource for students of ethics, which includes updated detailed overviews of the field and methodological issues, as well as an appendix of additional resources, including technical terms in ethics.

Reviews for The Bloomsbury Handbook of Ethics

This contribution to the Continuum Companion series, edited by Miller (Wake Forest Univ.), rivals and in a few ways surpasses similar titles. [...] Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students through faculty/researches. (for the 1st edition) * CHOICE Magazine * This is a very original companion and one that would certainly be of value to most universities' libraries.(for the 1st edition) * Neelke Doorn, Ethical Perspectives * The Continuum Companion to Ethics, edited by Christian Miller, is an excellent volume. The book provides a reasonably comprehensive survey of contemporary analytical work in ethical theory. The authors and editor all supply knowledgeable summaries of their domains of expertise, and almost all the essays are clearly written. (for the 1st edition) * Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews *
