“An enormously effective anthology, Foundations of
Ethics contains well-chosen, important papers in metaethics as
well as helpful introductory essays by the editors. A highly
commendable work!” David Copp, University of
Florida
“Shafer-Landau and Cuneo have assembled an excellent mix
of old and new influences, featuring authors who bring out the
excitement in their fields. With 38 essays, Foundations of
Ethics allows for considerable flexibility and provides a
highly useful introduction to metaethics.” Philip Clark,
University of Toronto
"The rationale of this particular work, Foundations of
Ethics, is to identify some of the best writing on meta-ethics
– what makes ethics ethics – and bring it together in
one convenient volume for students, lecturer, and other interested
parties. This makes this work…of value to the academic
library and to courses where ethics and meta-ethics are seriously
studied. It is a work for early on in such courses as well as for
more seasoned readers to check back on to be sure of the facts and
arguments…The arrangement and editorial plan is excellent,
making this a thoroughly worth-while book to buy." Library
Review
"The selection is challenging yet accessible to readers with some background in ethics...This comprehensive collection is indispensable to anyone wishing to be conversant with the major traditions in the field." Choice
