I'm looking for a book that describes those ethical philosophies in more detail. ]]> feeds@yuku.com (JulianTheApostate) http://booktalk.yuku.com/topic/3635 Sat, 05 Nov 2005 20:53:47 GMT http://booktalk.yuku.com/topic/3633/t/Who-s-reading-.html ]]> feeds@yuku.com (MadArchitect) http://booktalk.yuku.com/topic/3633 Mon, 24 Oct 2005 20:46:19 GMT http://booktalk.yuku.com/topic/3620/t/Ethical-Brain-Vonnegut-s-essay.html feeds@yuku.com (tarav) http://booktalk.yuku.com/topic/3620 Wed, 19 Oct 2005 16:07:23 GMT http://booktalk.yuku.com/topic/3637/t/If-you-could-live-forever-would-you-want-to-.html feeds@yuku.com (Chris OConnor) http://booktalk.yuku.com/topic/3637 Sun, 16 Oct 2005 02:37:22 GMT http://booktalk.yuku.com/topic/3638/t/Is-taking-steroids-unethical-.html Is taking steroids unethical?
