Books by Mike W. (Professor of Philosophy Martin

As usually understood, professional ethics consists of shared duties and episodic dilemmas. This book rethinks professional ethics to include personal commitments and ideals, including many not mandatory for all members of a profession.

Philosopher Mike W. Martin here examines the meaning of happiness by connecting it to the philosophical notion of "the good life."

Asks the question: are we replacing morality with therapy, in potentially confusing and dangerous ways, or are we creatively integrating morality and mental health? This work focuses on practical concerns like love, work, self-respect, self-fulfillment, guilt, depression, crime, violence, and addictions.
