Feminist Analyses of Applied Ethics offers an original approach to applied ethics examining both traditional and less explored issues through a feminist lens. The work on immigration and peace is particularly exciting because of its relevance and global reach. While there are other texts on more traditional topics (abortion, for example), I am not aware of another text that makes a systematic analysis of the contributions that feminist thought can bring to applied ethics more broadly. Many of the topics discussed are underexplored in the extant literature.
