Character and Environment: A Virtue-Oriented Approach to Environmental Ethics
ISBN: 9780231141079 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Virtue ethics is now widely recognized as an alternative to Kantian and consequentialist ethical theories. However, moral philosophers have been slow to bring virtue ethics to bear on topics in applied ethics. Moreover, environmental virtue ethics is an underdeveloped area of environmental ethics. Although environmental ethicists often employ virtue-oriented evaluation (such as respect, care, and love for nature) and appeal to role models (such as Henry Thoreau, Aldo Leopold, and Rachel Carson) for guidance, environmental ethics has not been well informed by contemporary work on virtue...

The Ethics of Species: An Introduction
ISBN: 9781107023468 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. We are causing species to go extinct at extraordinary rates, altering existing species in unprecedented ways, and creating entirely new species. More than ever before, we require an ethic of species to guide our interactions with them. In this book, Ronald L. Sandler examines the value of species and the ethical significance of species boundaries, and discusses what these mean for species preservation in the light of global climate change, species engineering and human enhancement. He argues that species possess several varieties of value, but they are not sacred. It is sometimes permissible...

Designer Biology: The Ethics of Intensively Engineering Biological and Ecological Systems
ISBN: 9780739178218 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Advances in our scientific understanding and technological power in recent decades have dramatically amplified our capacity to intentionally manipulate complex ecological and biological systems. An implication of this is that biological and ecological problems are increasingly understood and approached from an engineering perspective. In environmental contexts, this is exemplified in the pursuits of geoengineering, designer ecosystems, and conservation cloning. In human health contexts, it is exemplified in the development of synthetic biology, bionanotechnology, and human enhancement...

Environmental Virtue Ethics
ISBN: 9780742533905 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. There is one certainty regarding the human relationship with nature-there is no getting away from it. But while a relationship with nature is a given, the nature of that relationship is not. Environmental ethics is the attempt to determine how we ought and ought not relate to the natural environment. A complete environmental ethic requires both an ethic of action and an ethic of character. Environmental virtue ethics is the area of environmental ethics concerned with character. It has been an underappreciated and underdeveloped aspect of environmental ethics-until now. The selections in this...

Environmental Justice and Environmentalism : The Social Justice Challenge to the Environmental Movement
ISBN: 9780262693400 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Although the environmental movement and the environmental justice movement would seem to be natural allies, their relationship over the years has often been characterized by conflict and division. The environmental justice movement has charged the mainstream environmental movement with racism and elitism and has criticized its activist agenda on the grounds that it values wilderness over people. Environmental justice advocates have called upon environmental organizations to act on environmental injustice and address racism and classism in their own hiring and organizational practices,...
