“Introduction to Ethics: Concepts, Theories, and Contemporary Issues” by Chhanda Chakraborti is an accessible and comprehensive guide to the complex world of ethics. Designed with university students, policymakers, professionals, and general adult readers in mind, this book serves as an invaluable resource for anyone seeking a clear understanding of Western ethics and its various subdivisions.

The book takes a thoughtful and structured approach to introduce readers to the realm of ethics. It begins with fundamental chapters that lay the groundwork for a deeper exploration of ethical philosophy. These initial sections provide essential background knowledge necessary for comprehending the more intricate discussions on metaethics, normative ethics theories, and applied ethics—widely recognized as the three key subdivisions within the field of ethics.

Each chapter within the book delves into core ethical issues, drawing from these subdivisions. Chakraborti's approach emphasizes explanation and critical analysis, enabling readers to develop a thorough understanding of each ethical issue. To further enhance comprehension, the book incorporates examples, real-life cases, and exercises that encourage critical thinking, making complex ethical concepts more relatable and tangible.

Moreover, “Introduction to Ethics” stays current by addressing contemporary ethical dilemmas and theories. It explores topics such as the ethics of human organ transplantation and incorporates modern ethical frameworks like Amartya Sen's concept of Justice and Martha Nussbaum's Capabilities Approach. This relevance to real-world ethics highlights the book's commitment to preparing readers to engage with the ethical challenges they will encounter in today's evolving world.

The book's forward-thinking approach extends to its final section on applied ethics, with a focus on the ethics of artificial intelligence. This forward-looking perspective emphasizes the importance of understanding and addressing emerging ethical issues, such as those posed by artificial intelligence and data-driven technologies.

In summary, “Introduction to Ethics: Concepts, Theories, and Contemporary Issues” offers a well-structured, engaging, and up-to-date exploration of ethics that is accessible to a wide range of readers. Chhanda Chakraborti's book not only equips readers with the foundational knowledge of ethics but also encourages them to critically examine and apply ethical principles to real-world situations. It stands as an essential guide for those interested in delving into the realm of ethics and preparing for the ethical challenges of the future.
