Jacques Thiroux's, "Ethics: Theory and Practice (Eleventh Edition)," is a discussion of both theoretical and practical ethics. The first part includes chapters on consequentialist ethics, deontological ethics, virtue ethics, relativism, freedom and determinism, and reward and punishment.Thiroux presents the arguments in favor and against each position in an even-handed fashion.The applied ethics portion, which takes up more than half the book, includes issues such as capital punishment, abortion, euthanasia, sexual morality, bioethics, and environmental ethics. In addition, there is a chapter devoted to business and media ethics. Thiroux includes a section on how the various ethical theories would deal with the issue in question. This is definitely a plus for this book. Another plus is the extensive list of supplementary readings found at the end of each chapter. The biggest drawback is a lack of primary-source readings.
