Ethics isn’t all headline-grabbing issues like euthanasia, the refugee crisis and reproductive rights. For most people, most of the time, morality is mundane. I had a lot of fun talking about everyday ethics with people @SheffMuseums for a late evening with @SheffieldThink

Fascinating by @drangiehobbs on where public philosophy is at right now - and where it's going. Includes a robust statement on the benefit, the need even, for philosophy in schools. (And thanks Dr Hobbs for the mention! 😀) https://t.co/y2i0hL0aOD
