Pressezitat
'This is an extremely thorough and versatile book that will effectively meet the demands of the diligent student and support the needs of the teacher delivering the new A Level course. It is a very welcome addition to the important subject area of ethics and religion.'--Richard Gray, author and Senior Examiner'Coffey and Brown have addressed every aspect of the Ethics option of the new OCR Specification for AS and A Level Religious Studies. The text will prove an excellent handbook both for teachers and for students. The authors have paid special attention to the greater weight given in the new examination to the need to critically evaluate normative ethical theories and the applied ethical topics. It is an essential text for the OCR Course and for similar courses offered by other examination boards, and it has an academic depth which will stretch students to reach their full potential.'--Keith Noakes, Latymer Upper School
