AMORAL THOUGHTS ABOUT MORALITY
The Intersection of Science, Psychology, and Ethics
Howard Kendler
Charles C. Thomas Pub., Ltd, 2000
LEARNING OBJECTIVES: The reader will learn how to recognize issues involved with scientific facts and moral principles in regards to IQ tests, affirmative action, racial differences, the nature/nurture controversy, multiculturalism, and moral pluralism.
In recent years, the social responsibilities of psychology and psychologists have become a source of considerable controversy. This book seeks to disentangle the moral interpretation of science from the actual aims and goals of science, especially in psychology and the social sciences.
