Product Description

"Peter Singer is probably the world's most famous or infamous contemporary philosopher," writes Gordon Preece. Singer, recently appointed as professor of bioethics in Princeton University's Center For Human Values, is best known for his book on animal rights, Animal Liberation, and his philosophical text Practical Ethics. Underneath his seemingly benign agenda lies perhaps the most radical challenge to Christian ethics proposed in recent times. What does Peter Singer say about issues such as abortion, infanticide, euthanasia and animal rights? What does he say about Christianity? What exactly is his philosophy>? These and other important questions about Peter Singer's views are addressed in a respectable but incisive way in this book by four fellow Australian scholars-Gordon Preece, Graham Cole, Lindsay Wilson and Andrew Sloane. This is a book not only for those who want to understand Peter Singer's views but for all those who want to understand the thinking that more and more informs all of our society's views on moral issues.
