Description

This widely anticipated volume offers a systematic introduction to and striking analysis of the central issues animating current debate in moral philosophy. It will be of interest to anyone with a serious interest in the philosophical foundations of ethics.Topics discussed include: realist vs anti-realist accounts of moral truth, cognitivist vs expressivist accounts of moral judgement: internalist vs externalist accounts of the relation between moral judgement and the will: Humean vs anti-Humean theories of motivation: and the debate between those who think that morality is a system of hypothetical imperatives and those who think that moral requirements are categorical.In 2000, The Moral Problem received The American Philosophical Association's first APA Book Prize for excellence in scholarship.
