"This comprehensive and authoritative collection embraces any of the most influential texts, and all the central contemporary approaches to the nature of morality. It will be an essential resource for any philosophy student wanting to understand that area, which in effect means any philosophy student at all." Simon Blackburn, Cambridge University
"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
Foundations of Ethics is a collection of seminal articles in metaethics. Organized into two parts, the first section investigates issues in the ontology of morality, such as whether there are objective moral standards. The second section considers related topics, such as whether moral considerations are essentially reason-giving, the nature of moral knowledge, and the differences between ethics and natural science. Designed for students of ethical theory, this volume provides an extensive selection of primary sources and corresponding expert commentary.
