Ethics at 3:AM: Questions and Answers on How to Live Well

by Richard Marshall

What do ethicists and moral philosophers really think about? What are the most pressing concerns in the discipline today? This collection of interviews with a range of interesting and original thinkers in the field provides a snapshot of contemporary ethics in all its complexity and nuance. It contains 26 probing interviews conducted by Richard Marshall of the cultural magazine 3AM, each consisting of a carefully condensed version of the interview, preceded by a brief biography of the interview subject. Marshall's questions are deeply knowledgeable while always accessible to the layperson, and the interviewees respond in kind with rich and opinionated responses. The result is a deeply engaging entrée into the state of ethics today.

It's a pretty broad and intriguing overview of the different contemporary fields of ethics. This book got me excited for the progress and future of ethics! There's a few formatting and grammar mistakes, so could use a bit more proof reading for the 2nd edition maybe?
