520 _aThis book is an attempt to expose the different moral principles and philosophical theories that will aid the readers in making moral judgements. This book also serves as an exposition of the different moral issues. From these moral issues, the book will provide the readers a better understanding as to how should a decision be made and what principle will be best applicable to particular situations. This book may be dealing with the different ethical principles just like the other books on morality and values. Nevertheless, this book will be dealing with the philosophy of morality without getting too far from the religious ideals. Such religious ideals will help the readers understand the role of the Divine Providence in making personal decisions on moral issues.
