Navigating the Moral Maze is a teaching resource to help students understand and critically engage with the most pressing issues in the world today. From the ruin of Gaza to the climate emergency, from the repeal of Roe v Wade to rising inequality, young people are growing up in a world beset with moral concerns and predicaments. With this book teachers can equip students with the critical skills and conceptual clarity needed to navigate through these issues and reach a clear and articulate understanding of their own views.

Each chapter features numerous lesson ideas with activities, texts and thought experiments that help refine and enrich students' thoughts on the topics while promoting discussion and reflection. Topics covered include:

  • Reproduction
  • Euthanasia
  • Poverty
  • Environment
  • Borders
  • War

Applicable to Religious Studies, Philosophy and Ethics, and touching on topics relevant to PSHE, History and Geography, this will be a valuable resource for secondary teachers wanting to enhance their students' critical writing and thinking skills.

David Birch teaches philosophy and religion at Highgate School, UK. He also works for the Philosophy Foundation, an award-winning charity that brings philosophy to schools and the wider community.
