adam_text | The Ethics of Species
We are causing species to go extinct at extraordinary rates, altering existing
species in unprecedented ways, and creating entirely new species. More
than ever before, we require an ethic of species to guide our interactions
with them. In this book, Ronald
L
Sandler
examines the value of species
and the ethical significance of species boundaries, and discusses what
these mean for species preservation in the light of global climate change,
species engineering, and human enhancement. He argues that species
possess several varieties of value, but they are not sacred. It is sometimes
permissible to alter species, let them go extinct (even when we are a cause
of the extinction), and invent new ones. Philosophically rigorous, accessible,
and illustrated with examples drawn from contemporary science, this book
will be of interest to students and researchers of philosophy, bioethics,
environmental ethics, and conservation biology.
