After situating the eco-ethical project in the contexts of four major themes in contemporary philosophical reflection in the companion volume published simultaneously, Eco-Ethics and Contemporary Philosophical Reflection, Peter McCormick now suggests a re-articulation and critical appraisal of ecoethics in terms of its two cardinal concepts, the technological conjuncture and ethical innovation.
