Nuttall focuses on a range of practical and topical questions, using these as a way of drawing the reader into the distinctive methods of philosophical analysis.

Nuttall then looks at sexual morality, with related chapters on pornography, abortion, foetal research and children. Finally, he examines moral issues surrounding death: suicide, war and euthanasia.
