Praise for the Routledge Philosophy Companions:


‘The Routledge Philosophy Companions series has a deserved reputation for impressive scope and scholarly value.’ – CHOICE

‘This marvellous book covers theoretical and practical aspects of ethics with admirable intelligence and freshness. As useful as it is enjoyable, it is sure to become an indispensible companion.’ – Samantha Vice, Rhodes University, South Africa

‘To describe this volume as ambitious would be a serious understatement. … full of scholarly rigor, including detailed notes and bibliographies of interest to professional philosophers. ... Summing up: Essential.’ – CHOICE

‘If someone were to ask me to select a book to be placed in a cornerstone or time capsule to be
opened 100 years hence, this book would be on my short list, for it will offer the intellectual
historian working in 2110 a clear view of how the mind of our time is understood.’ – Contemporary Psychology: APA Review of Books
