Written for high school and undergraduate students, the second volume of this three-volume reference contains 1,007 entries, over 200 of them new to this edition; the remainder have been revised. Coverage includes terms and theories, the ethical aspects of the lives of well-known figures, events, writings, situations, social mores, and policies. New to this edition is an increased focus on applied ethics. Each entry begins with an initial overview, giving a definition, date, type of ethics, and brief description of significance. A short essay follows, concluding with cross references and, in many cases, a list of further reading. A sampling of topics: alienation, Asoka, bystander, Children’s Bureau, downsizing, Louis Farrakhan, gossip, Ibn Gabirol, limited war, George Orwell, robotics, sales ethics, and whistleblowing. Six appendices present a bibliography, biographical directory, glossary, Nobel Peace Prize winners, organizations, and time line of primary works. Both a name and a subject index are included. The entries were written by 366 academics in the US; editor Roth is in the department of philosophy and religious studies at the Claremont McKenna College in California.
