Environmental Ethics

Intercultural Perspectives

丛编：

Volume Editor:
King-Tak Ip
This book shows that environmental protection is a global concern that must enlist all of humanity’s cultural, religious, and moral resources. The nine essays in this volume explore the foundations of environmental ethics in the Western philosophical tradition as well as from the perspectives of Christianity, Islam, Daoism, and Buddhism and propose morally responsible attitudes towards nature and the environment.

”…this collection makes an important contribution to the growing sub-field of philosophy known as environmental ethics. … the collection’s appeal lies in the wide array of cross-cultural viewpoints expressed by its several contributors—viewpoints that, for better or worse, have received little or no attention in the current literature. As a result, the essays expose the reader to perspectives that many journal editors and publishing houses have neglected in their haste to locate a broader audience for this growing sub-field. By transcending the orthodox view of environmental ethics, the collection fills an important niche” in: Philosophy in Review XXX (2010), No. 5
