Synopsis:

This hands-on workbook helps readers develop the conceptual tools and argumentative strategies that will enable them to move beyond merely having opinions to discovering and evaluating the information, values, and assumptions that underlie different positions on controversial issues and cases. It shows them how to move from contentious debates to productive dialogues, and how to increase a group's resources so they can make better decisions. Covers topics such as: Introduction to The Ethical Process; The Resources for The Ethical Process; The Logic of The Ethical Process; Evaluating Arguments from Different Ethical Approaches; The Ethical Process as an Argumentative Dialogue; How to Use the Syllogism to Uncover Implicit Value Judgments; An Example of an Argumentative Dialogue. For anyone interested in applied ethics.
