Christopher Miles Coope
Christopher Miles Coope is the author of ‘Death Sentences’. Philosophy, January 2006. His book, Worth and Welfare in the Abortion Controversy (Palgrave Macmillan, 2006), seeks to make limited but definite progress by narrowing the options available. His recent article ‘Modern Virtue Ethics’ (in Values and Virtues: Aristotelianism in Contemporary Ethics, Oxford University Press, 2006) argues that the virtues approach to moral philosophy went into steep decline almost from the outset. His forthcoming Royal Institute of Philosophy lecture, ‘The Doctor of Philosophy Will See You Now’ suggests that the prospects for ‘applied’ philosophy are not at all good.
