Applied ethics, a subdiscipline of philosophy, lends itself to an encyclopedia format because of the many industries and intellectual fields that it encompasses. The "Encyclopedia of Applied Ethics" is based on twelve major categories, such as "Biomedical Ethics and Environmental Ethics". Religious traditions that embody normative beliefs, as well as classical theories of ethics, are explored in a non-judgmental manner. Each of the twelve categories is divided into discrete areas that are covered by 5,000-6,000 word articles. Each of the 281 articles begins with a definition of the subject and includes a table of contents, glossary of key terms, and bibliography. Second- and third- level headings, boxes, sidebars, and the like emphasize the reference-oriented nature of the material. The four volumes are arranged in an A-Z format, with a complete subject index at the end of the last volume. Articles are written by international experts, arranged alphabetically by title, not by subject, and cross-referenced so the reader can locate relevant information in other articles. It is one of Library Journal's Best Reference Sources for 1997! It is one of the "Choice" Outstanding Academic Books for 1998! Cross-references appear in each article to refer readers to related information. A glossary and bibliography in each article provide readers with tools for learning and creative thinking.
