Reviews

I have long used James and Stuart Rachels excellent reader for my ethics courses. It contains a fantastic sampling of essays by leading philosophers in most of the key areas in ethics. This newest edition preserves all that is best about earlier editions, while adding some very contemporary and relevant updates. These are much needed, and I will surely be using this latest edition in my courses. -- Matthew Wion, University of San Diego, USA

""James and Stuart Rachels' text has long been perfect for introduction to philosophy courses. As strong as ever with great updates and an improved chapter on Free Will, I highly and enthusiastically recommend this new edition of Problems from Philosophy!"" --Matthew Wion, University of San Diego
