This collection gathers a selection of presentations that have been given over the course of five years at the seminars of the Centre for Ethics, University of Tartu. Philosophers, lawyers, medical doctors, biologists, psychologists, theologians and social scientists from Estonia and elsewhere reflect upon various ethical problems. The collection is interdisciplinary, covering subjects ranging from the metaphysics of morality to codes of ethics for public servants, from medical and contract law to international relations, from social justice to gene banks.

Appendices provide an overview of the activities of the Centre for Ethics during the period 2001 to 2006.
