Mary Anne Warren explores a theoretical question which lies at the heart of practical ethics: what are the criteria for having moral status? In other words, what are the criteria for being an entity towards which people have moral obligations? Some philosophers maintain that there is one intrinsic property—for instance, life, sentience, humanity, or moral agency. Others believe that relational properties, such as belonging to a human community, are more important. In Part I of the book, Warren argues that no single property can serve as the sole criterion for moral status; instead, life, sentience, moral agency, and social and biotic relationships are all relevant, each in a different way. She presents seven basic principles, each focusing on a property that can, in combination with others, legitimately affect an agent''s moral obligations towards entities of a given type. In Part II, these principles are applied in an examination of three controversial ethical issues: voluntary euthanasia, abortion

The Good Thing About Coming Home The glossy curtain of blond hair, the cashmere coat-nobody would ever connect the fabulous Alegra Reynolds with \"Al\" Peterson, the grimy little poor girl who''d hated growing up on Shelter Island, in Puget Sound. There''d been nobody to share her unhappiness then and there was nobody to appreciate her success now. Or was there? Is That You''re Never Alone The island Joe Lawrence remembered was the perfect place to raise his three-year-old son, which is why the award-winning newspaperman decided to leave the bright lights and bustle of New York behind. A bit of sleuthing revealed a lot about the new Alegra, but nothing about her troubled past. Would the glamorous jet-setter touch down long enough for them to build a life together, or would she do what she''d done before-simply walk away?
