.ETHICS AND THE UNIVERSITY Ethics and the University brings together two closely related topics, the practice of ethics in the university (“academic ethics”) and the teaching of practical or applied ethics in the university. The volume is divided into four parts: • a survey of practical ethics, offering an explanation of its recent emergence as a university subject, situating that subject within a wider social and historical context and identifying some problems that the subject generates for universities; • an examination of research ethics, including the problem of plagiarism; • a discussion of the teaching of practical ethics. Michael Davis explores.
