The Elements of Moral Philosophy
About the Third Edition
Readers familiar with previous editions of this book may want to know what changes have been made. The most conspicuous change is that a chapter on feminist ethics has been added. Other changes have been made here and there, mostly adding materian on different topics, but the only chapter that has been substantially altered is the concluding chapter on "What Would a Satisfactory Moral Theory Be Like?" My opinion about the proper answer to that question has changed since the second edition, and the revised chapter reflects that.
A number of people have given wise and generous advice. I have to thank especially Joseph L. Lombardi, Don Marquis, Rober J. Deltete, Donald N. McCloskey, Rick Gordon, Heather J. Gert, Keven M. Clermont, William O. Stephens, J. Angelo Corlett, David Phillips, Hal Walberg, Mark Franklin, David Johnson, Jonell DePetro, and James Baley.
