Understandable Ethics

Crook is an excellent read. His first chapter tended to drag, overviews do not seem to be his strength. But keep on reading - the remainder of the book is insightful and follows in a logical progression. Beware: Crook is very up to date in his thinking on topics that may bother some, e.g., homosexuality. He includes what science has contributed to ethical understanding in his explanations. Some may not like the facts getting in the way of their ethical standards. This is so well written that I use the book for meditation topics.
