    About this ebook

    Contemporary Society through the Lens of Applied Ethics provides a framework of how to experience ethics within your personal worldview without being prescriptive. A little history, a bit of context, and a touch of some of today's critical thinking topics hopefully lead to dialogue with friends and colleagues about a topic rarely explored in the world we live in together--ethics, an abstract part of every human's day-to-day that people tend to tiptoe around. Enjoy the journey and hopefully pick up some interesting and useful perspectives along the way!
