The Routledge Handbook of Global Ethics (Routledge Handbooks in Applied Ethics)

"This handbook offers a comprehensive account of current thought in global ethics, a concept that emerges as a late-20th-century effort to account for transnational challenges, effects, and values in fixing ethical conceptions...The chapters are evenly paced and rigorous, providing thorough coverage of the literature and conceptual landscapes.  The role of international agencies and efforts is emphasized throughout.  Questions of intrinsic value appear in some but not all the treatments--nearly constituting a subtheme, and at least raising the possibility for a meta-reading of the handbook fruitful for students... Summing Up: Highly recommended." - R. Ward, Georgetown College, CHOICE
