Résumé

What would you do? Would you always do the right thing? Is there a right thing? From overcrowded lifeboats to the censor's pen, Martin Cohen's stimulating and amusing dilemmes reveal the subtieties, complexities and downright contradictions that make up the rich tapestry of ethics. From DIY babies and breeding experiments, by way of ethically dubious chemical factories and the " School of Terror ", before finally ending up in the " Twinkies courtroom drame " and Newgate Prison, there is a dilemma for everyone here. Dilemmes from the worlds of medical, business, legal and war ethics, dilemmes in the shape of beautiful and ugly sisters, frog kings, ancient volcanic islands and suspiciously exotic villages. This book may net help you become a good person, but at least you will have had a good think about it...
