Books
Distributive justice, edited by Serena Olsaretti. First academic reference work devoted to distributive justice, containing 32 chapters written by an illustrious set of contributors.
Normative ethics, by Shelly Kagan. I particularly like how carefully Kagan distinguishes between moral factors and theoretical foundations. I also think the concept of an evaluative focal point is helpful in thinking about normative ethics. I have used the book for many years in the introduction to ethics course I teach at Tilburg University.
On what matters, by Derek Parfit. The project of trying to reconcile consequentialism, kantianism, and contractualism is interesting, and figuring out where you disagree is a wonderful exercise. Parfit’s writing is extremely clear, enlightening, and entertaining (when I finished reading the books, I noticed I miss them!)
