Critical Moral Reasoning: An Applied Empirical Ethics Approach

This textbook introduces students to contemporary moral issues through a casuistry-based approach. Unlike traditional anthologies, it emphasizes case based reasoning and empirical evidence to strengthen critical moral analysis. Students learn to distinguish legality from morality, formulate moral arguments, and apply normative theories such as utilitarianism, deontology, virtue ethics, and feminist ethics of care.

Through authentic case studies ranging from tipping and piracy to abortion, civil protest, and AI ethics, the book provides an engaging framework for developing moral reasoning skills essential for today’s complex ethical landscape.
