Any book recommendations on the subject of ethics and philosophy please?

[TheCunkOfPhilomena]

I am new to philosophy really. I have read a couple of A C Grayling books, Would You Kill The Fat Man?, and Bad Science (not really philosophical, more critical thinking stuff) and wondered if anyone had any suggestions of where to go from here?

Maybe something that is understandable to a layman about Philippa Foot? That appeals to my feminist principles as well as interest in philosophy.

This series is very good -- concise, clear and written by acknowledged experts in the field Philosophy: A Very Short Introduction

This series is aimed at students, again very comprehensive and written by experts Cambridge Companion to Feminism in Philosophy and Cambridge Companion to Atheism are just two of the many titles.

Oh, and if you are interested in Foot and virtue ethics, then this would be the place to start: Cambridge Companion to Virtue Ethics, although the key modern text is Alastair Macintyre's After Virtue

Big List of Feminist Philosophy books

I don't know a lot of secundary lit. about Philippa Foot and haven't read her but her thought experiment about the trolley is written about by Julian Baggini and he is very accessible. He wrote a book called: 'The pig that wants to be eaten: and 99 other thought experiments', it is in there.

I can recommend Miranda Fricker. She is on some philosophy bites podcasts and sometimes on In our Time. Haven't read the full books but she would be accessible is my guess. She wrote on ethics.
She is also one of the editors of the Cambridge companion nimin mentioned above.

Brilliant, thank you. I have heard of Miranda Fricker, maybe from In Our Time. Maybe the Short Introduction would be a good place to start and then I can build on that by reading 'The Pig That Wants To Be Eaten' (great title).
