Exploring Practical Philosophy: From Action to Values

This title was first published in 28/11/2001: The broad label 'practical philosophy' brings together such topics as ethics and metaethics as well as philosophy of law, society, art and religion. In practical philosophy, theory of value and action is basic, and woven into our understanding of all practical and ethical reasoning. New essays from leading international philosophers illustrate that substantial results in the subdisciplines of practical philosophy require insights into its core issues: the nature of actions, persons, values and reasons. This anthology is published in honour of Ingmar Persson on his fiftieth birthday. Contributors: Roger Crisp; Fred Feldman; Göran Hermerén; Derek Parfit; Wlodek Rabinowicz; Michael Smith; Paul Snowdon; Galen Strawson; Larry S.Temkin; Torbjörn Tännsjö; Michael J. Zimmerman
