What makes a person good Is it their impeccable table manners Whether they participate in protests The way they treat the waiter

Ethicsis the go-to guide for navigating ethics in the 21st century. In a post-Trump, post-truth world, the lines between right and wrong are increasingly blurred and ethics matter more than ever. More of us are questioning the world that we live in and what is our role inside it.

Inside this book youll find over 100 conversation starters for creating meaningful, thought-provoking discussions. From Plato to veganism, cancel culture to consent, and politics to basic kindness, these topics are set to engage, inspire, and even divide. Its the perfect accompaniment for road trips, Sunday afternoon drinks, family dinners or even a first date.

Designed to have no real answer, but rather, stir even more questions, this provocative and deeply engaging book will kick your philosophical gears into action. Ethicsencourages readers to dig deeper, put yourself in others shoes, and be the best human you can be.
