The Moral of the Story continues to make difficult concepts in moral philosophy comprehensible through storytelling and story analysis. To help students apply moral theories to the world around them, each chapte concludes with a section of Primary Readings with excerpts from classical and contemporary texts, along with a selection of Narratives, stories that illustrate the moral issues raised in the chapter. Study questions are included throughout. New examples from popular culture, current events, and television shows and movies (e.g. The Last of Us, Black Mirror) are examined to explore chapter themes and reinforce the daily relevance of the moral and ethical questions that are raised.
