In this book, White compiles and explains information on major modern moral problems. I have never been more enthralled by philosophical debates, and I found myself wanting to learn more about every issue. White does an excellent job of providing the writings of leading philosophers voicing an array of opinions, so the reader always gets a full picture of the moral debates of our time.
