Introducing Ethics: A Graphic Guide (Graphic Guides)

Good for new students
simple but profound, it reviews the more than 2000 years of the history of Western thought, in a very pertinent and well-founded way.

Not of much use
Too facile, over simplified to the point of being misinterpreted, not helpful in understanding basic Ethics. Not even good for kids.

Ready to challenge your personal views?
It deserves a four star rating due to the excellent examples used throughout this book and the wide ranging coverage of this field. It is a perceptive introduction to this area of philosophical thought.This book is a bit dated, and could use some revisions. Nonetheless, the examples used are spot on. The graphic "bubbles" are much more to the point in this case than in other books in this series.One area in need of updating is the "For Further Reading" section. Most all the books are very good recommendations , but are way out of date by decades. This is still a good introduction.

Ethics convoluted to the point of uselessness.
Kindle Edition: Introducing Ethics: A Graphic Guide isn't worth reading. While it makes some ideas clear, the graphics are few, crudely drawn, and repetitively used. This and several other Graphic Guides on various philosophers in history made me realize that these books are poorly written or that philosophy is a mostly waste of time. For a philosophy more down to earth I'd recommend: All I really needed to know I learned in kindergarten (the original not updated), It was on fire when I lay down on it, and Uh-Oh by Robert Fulghum.

Wow.
I cannot even begin to describe how interesting this book has been. Hats off to the illustrators and writers who have really questioned some common ideologies with such humor and wittiness.The best part is the progression of the book . It takes you on a journey. Awesome read.

I surely loved this book and the book is meant to be read more than once for better comprehension.The language could have been more lucid.

Quickest way to master ethics as a topic.
Excellent graphics to explain abstract but quintessential moral fabric.Upsc aapirants should read it.Takes just a day to cover.Helps build a good view of ethics.So for those who have philosophy background can be challenged with a patient reading of this paperback.Intermittent inclusion of humorous graphics is a good attempt to make an otherwise serious topic light.
