Review:

This collection has a good mix of selections by philosophers and social scientists...an excellent book for ethics courses. (Martin P. Golding, Duke University)

The selected studies on this perennial and stubborn problem represent salient approaches in philosophy and social science, and the anthropological materials are particularly good. Ladd's own discussions go far below the surface. It is an ideal collection for class use. (Abraham Edel, University of Pennsylvania)
