Doing Ethics: Moral Reasoning and Contemporary Issues by Lewis Vaughn

Used at over 130 schools in its first edition, "Doing Ethics" now offers more topics and more readings, and the clearest, most helpful introductions. "Doing Ethics" is really three books in one: a clear and comprehensible introduction to ethical theory, a practical guide for applying critical thinking skills to contemporary moral issues, and an anthology of readings in applied ethics. Substantial pedagogy reinforces core concepts and spurs students' own thinking throughout. The second edition includes 38 new readings and two new topics.
