This short and accessible book is designed for those learning about
the search for ethical rules that can apply despite cultural
differences. Robert Audi looks at several such attempts: Aristotle,
Kant; Mill; and the movement known as "common-sense" ethics
associated with W.D. Ross. He shows how each attempt grew out of
its own time and place, yet has some universal qualities that can
be used for an ethical framework. This is a short, accessible
treatment of a major topic in ethics by a senior and
highly-respected figure.
