| 520 | |a In this concise, single-authored text, renowned scholar and professor Michael Boylan examines the moral justifications underlying crucial global justice issues and provides readers with the analytical tools to approach those issues critically. Introductory chapters establish a thorough but accessible foundation in theory and moral justification, and subsequent chapters apply those concepts to major areas of global concern. Each chapter includes Critical Applied Reasoning Exercises perfect for class discussions or writing assignments, as well as key terms for easy reference and review.
