Reddit reviews Contemporary Metaethics: An Introduction

I've read four intros to metaethics. I highly recommend you begin with Fisher's intro and then read Miller's intro.

> OK, so your question is pretty much the driving question for all of metaethics. So I'm not going to summarize the entire field here as that's a book-length project.

Somebody who has gone to these lengths is Alexander Miller, whose survey Contemporary Metaethics: An Introduction looks to me to be the standard text these days. It's a good book, well worth reading if you're into this type of thing.

For metaethics, Andrew Fisher has what I've heard is a good introduction, and Alexander Miller has a more advanced introduction that I like.

For political philosophy, Ian Shapiro's The Moral Foundations of Politics is a great introductory lecture series, and he has an introductory textbook based on the lecture series.

For anthologies, I'd recommend Ethical Theory for normative ethics, Moral Discourse and Practice for metaethics, and What's Wrong? for applied ethics.
