Negative Positive
Title: wrong title
Review: This so-called textbook should have been entitled "The Moral Philosophy of James Rachels." It is one-sided, tendentious, and has a decidedly pro-liberal and anti-Christian subtext. For example, having introduced Utilitarianism in chapter seven, devoting a grand total of two pages to it, Rachels gratuitously gives utilitarian arguments in favor of abortion, euthanasia, and the legalization of marijuana. Why? I thought the topic was utilitarianism. The presentation is unfair. Opposing positions are dismissed with a few sentences. Clearly, Rachels's agenda is obvious. Many other examples could be cited. I have used many other ethics textbooks over the years, but this is one of the worse.
Is the review positive or negative?
