<p>Igniting a firestorm of controversy upon its publication in 1966, Joseph Fletcher's <i>Situation Ethics</i> was hailed by many as a much-needed reformation of morality--and as an invitation to anarchy by others. Proposing an ethic of loving concern, Fletcher suggests that certain acts--such as lying, premarital sex, adultery, or even murder--might be morally right, depending on the circumstances.

It presents a selection of important and otherwise unavailable texts in easily accessible form.
