“Shelley called poets ‘the unacknowledged legislators
of the world.’ Peter and Renata Singer have made novelists
and playwrights (and poets!), its acknowledged ethicists. An
intriguing collection.” Randy Cohen, writer of “The
Ethicist” for the New York Times Magazine
“This excellent, wide-ranging anthology reminds us that
there is as much ethics in Tolstoy or Dostoyevsky as in Kant or
Mill. Philosophy departments should leave around copies for
students to dip into and be inspired by.” Jonathan Glover,
King’s College London
“An essential and enriching anthology, selected with
wisdom and care by Peter and Renata Singer…an invaluable
light on the moral and ethical landscape.” Carol Rocamora,
New York University
"The Moral of the Story is an extremely stimulating collection. Its examples are mostly drawn from classics, but there are enough idiosyncratic contemporary choices to give it a distinct flavour." James Ley, The Age
