This revised and expanded Second Edition uses a new format to invite moral deliberation in the concrete contexts of specific ethical dilemmas. Each chapter is organized to challenge thinking. First, a hypothetical case is presented. This case is followed by a dispute in the form of a dialogue that points out salient ethical issues in an intuitive way. Next is a discussion of concepts, which brings major ethical issues to bear. Then, analysis shows what decisions could ultimately be reached based from both consequentialist and nonconsequentialist perspectives. Finally, each chapter ends with additional similar cases for practice, discussion, and resolution.
