About this listen

Do I buy eggs laid by free-range chooks or the cheaper ones from caged birds? Do I tell my best friend I saw her boyfriend kissing another girl? Do I lie to my mum by telling her I will wear the jumper she bought me, even though it's the ugliest jumper in the world?

Every day our lives are punctuated by points of decision. Some of these decisions will be momentous, remembered for decades: most will go unnoticed, by us and by others. Yet all our choices matter: taken as a whole, they shape our lives and contribute to the rhythms of the world.

In Everyday Ethics, Australia's leading authority on ethics, Simon Longstaff, provides a map to help you better navigate the landscape of daily decisions more ethically. Using a broad range of topics and examples to provoke eye-opening reflection and discussion, Everyday Ethics is a lesson in how even our smallest choices can matter and an empowering guide that will help us discover what is 'good' and what is 'right'.

The author poses many topics and considerations to ponder when trying to live more ethically. He doesn't always give his own opinion on what you should do, but instead prompts you with things to consider and then leaves you to make your own decisions. There are a wide variety of topics considered, from deep philosophical questions to minor behaviours in a public space. Great for those wanting to be a better person but are not seeing the many ways they can do this in their every day life.

Would you consider the audio edition of Everyday Ethics to be better than the print version?

The audio edition really brought the story to life in what would otherwise be quite a dry subject.

Any additional comments?

An excellent performance from the narrator, more from him please!!

Interesting and Easy to Follow
