Summary: A good textbook for Introductory Ethics
Comment: I have used this textbook in my Intro to Ethics class... for three years. I would highly recommend it; it presents ethical theory in a concise and interesting fashion appropriate for a undergraduate level introduction to ethics. I especially like applied ethics aspects of the book. Thiroux presents compelling and controversial case studies in which students can apply the theory that they have learned in the first 4-5 chapters.
A few problems with the text:
(1) I'm not a big fan of Thiroux's personal ethical position -- this position is far too prominent in the text.
(2) Related to (1), I don't like the inclusion of the Appendices. In them, Thiroux further expounds on his position of Humanitarian Ethics and applies the position to most of the case studies that he presented the student with in the book. In my experience, I have found that once students find this section of the book, they use it almost as an answer key.
Overall, this is a good introductory text with far more plusses than minuses.
