How can one be ethical in modern life? In contemporary times, decisions to act according to one's beliefs can be difficult. In his new book "Ethical Life", Harry Redner provides a comprehensive survey of the nature of ethics. He delves into the role of ethics in past and present civilizations. The ancient Israeli, Greek, Chinese, Indian, and Persian traditions are explored according to the which ethical system they belong to. Only through understanding these, can one understand the current state of ethics in modern life. Redner goes on to identitfy the crisis in ethics of the twentieth century on the three analytically distinct levels of society, culture, and the individual. In this survey of past and present ethical cultures, "The Ethical Life" answers the questions of why and how one should be ethical.
