This book includes an analysis of the broad stages in the developmental pattern, of the key variables that must shape it, of their function in moral judgement and of the principles that must lie behind a moral education that has autonomy as its goal.
This new textbook draws on most of the major theoretical positions but eschews the traditional, historical approach and the use of names and schools of thought as organizing devices, and instead focuses on the ideas themselves. In doing so, it exposes a number of common confusions and misunderstandings about morality, and presents a strong argument for some indisputable truths in relation to the moral sphere

With numerous examples to supplement her rich theoretical discussion, Nel Noddings builds a compelling philosophical argument for an ethics based on natural caring, as in the care of a mother for her child. In Caring--now updated with a new preface and afterword reflecting on the ongoing relevance of the subject matter--the author provides a wide-ranging consideration of whether organizations, which operate at a remove from the caring relationship, can truly be called ethical. She discusses the extent to which we may truly care for plants, animals, or ideas. Finally, she proposes a realignment of education to encourage and reward not just rationality and trained intelligence, but also enhanced sensitivity in moral matters." --
This volume argues that moral education in the late 1990s is too abstract and would benefit from the adoption of the practical approach typical of biomedical ethics: "thinking with cases". The author explores various issues of moral epistemology and urges realism in ethics

This book shares with English readers Chinese theoretical and practical explorations of moral education curriculum for primary schools within the basic education curriculum reform project since 2001. The book expounds this moral education curriculum reform and focuses on three main ideas: The curriculum's aim is to enrich children's experiences and reflect their own lives; the curriculum's content is originated from children's lives; the curriculum's structure is developed from children's learning approach in their morality and social study. In this book, light is also shed on how to construct moral education textbooks, direct moral instruction, and moral teacher identity in the perspective of moral learning; how to knit law education and Chinese traditional culture education in moral curriculum. This is the first comprehensive book focusing on Chinese moral education curriculum reform. It will appeal to researchers, research students, and writers of moral education textbooks. It is also suitable for teacher training programs to help future teachers learn about moral education curriculum and help them effectively design and organize it for children's morality study.

"America's moral educators have continually splintered our humanity throughout higher education's history. Unable to agree upon a common ethical understanding of our humanity, educators turned to shards of our identity to help students find their moral bearings. The Dismantling of Moral Education explains why and how we arrived at this situation"--
