- Sexual Ethics
- War
- Technologies, including reproductive and genetic
- Ethics and Economics
- Creation Care and Animal Rights

With its unique union of theory and application and its well-organized, easy-to-use design, the fourth edition of Moral Choices also offers extensive updates, revisions, and three brand new chapters all designed to help students develop a sound and current basis for making ethical decisions in today's complex postmodern culture.
