> ABOUT THE BOOK:
> Love him or hate him, you certainly can't ignore him. For the
past twenty
> years, Australian philosopher and professor of bioethics Peter Singer
has
> pushed the hot buttons of our collective conscience. In addition
to
writing
> the book that sparked the modern animal rights movement. Singer
has
> challenged our most closely held beliefs on the sanctity of human life,
the
> moral obligations of citizens of affluent nations toward those living
in
the
> poorest countries of the world, and much more, with arguments that
intrigue
> as often and as powerfully as they incite.
>
> Writings on an Ethical Life offers a comprehensive collection of Singer's
> best and most provocative writing, as chosen by Singer himself.
Among the
> controversial subjects addressed are the moral status of animals,
> environmental accountability, abortion, infanticide, euthanasia, and
the
> ultimate choice of living an ethical life. This book provides
an
unsurpassed
> one-volume view of both the underpinnings and the applications of Singer's
> governing philosophy.
>
> "Peter Singer may be the most controversial philosopher alive; he is
> certainly among the most influential."
> ~ The New Yorker
>
> "Peter Singer has probably had a larger popular readership than any
> professional philosopher since Bertrand Russell, and more success in
> effecting changes in acceptable behavior."
> ~ New England Journal of Medicine
>
> "Singer's documentation is unrhetorical and unemotional, his arguments
right
> and formidable, for he bases his case on neither personal nor religious
nor
> highly abstract philosophical principles but on moral positions most
of us
> already accept."
> ~ New York Times Book Review
>
> ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
> Peter Singer is the author of Animal Liberation, Practical Ethics and
> Rethinking Life and Death, among many others. He is currently

> DeCamp Professor of Bioethics at Princeton University's Center for Human
