Synopsis
In this guide to ethics, controversial even before its publication, Mary Warnock debates issues such as abortion, euthanasia, Down's Syndrome, education and genetic engineering, aiming to explain how to distinguish right from wrong. Drawing on examples from her personal and political life, she illustrates difficult cases to make her point and clarify where she stands in a thought-provoking way.

Review
"'Warnock's new book admirably fulfils the brief of its title...This book will serve as an excellent introduction to ethical study, and is also an impassioned and moving summary of Warnock's own lifelong dedication to ethical thinking' - Alain de Botton, The Guardian; 'This admirable book fully lives up to its title...This is a wise, earnest, moving book, rather Victorian in its way, which shows that goodness is not just for prigs. No wonder the blurb calls it 'controversial'. It must certainly raise eyebrows among the enlightened' - Robert Grant, The Times"
