| Sommario/riassunto: | Kupperman looks at what enters into ethical judgement and choice. Interpretation of a case and of what the options are is always a factor, as is a sense of the possible values at stake. Intuitions also enter in but are unreliable. A moral judgement is putatively part of a moral order in a society that any reasonable person would accept. |
