Overview

The Dimensions of Ethics presents a concise survey of moral philosophy, mapping core questions about moral truth, relativism, and the connection between ethics and religion. The text pairs clear exposition with careful engagement of objections and debates.

It examines five major approaches—utilitarianism, Kantian deontology, Ross's ethical pluralism, virtue ethics, and feminist ethics—outlining central principles and common critiques while using concrete examples.

Dedicated sections on metaethics clarify the status of moral claims, and applied-ethics examples show how theory bears on real-world decisions.

• Metaethics and debates over relativism
• Utilitarian, deontological, pluralist, virtue and feminist approaches
• Illustrative applied ethics discussions

Well suited to undergraduates, instructors, and readers seeking a balanced, accessible introduction to ethical theory.
