Science and technology confront us with some of the most challenging and unprecedented ethical questions in the world today. These issues encompass what it means to be human, how we relate to others and our world, and how we find meaning in life. In 'The Ethical Imagination', Margaret Somerville discusses how we can find a shared ethics for an interdependent world.
Renowned ethicist and McGill University professor, Margaret Somerville, tackles some of the most contentious issues of our times, and proposes a brilliant new kind of ethical language and thought to help us navigate them.
She eloquently proposes that it is only through our willingness to undertake a journey of the human imagination – by heeding our stories, myths, and moral intuition – that we can truly see, understand, speak about, and relate to the world around us, and thereby develop an ethics to guide us.
