Orientation: The eight volumes in this series explore the philosophical implications of social problems whose solutions require rational planning and decision making. The series was produced as part of an effort by the philosophy department at Bowling Green State University to develop an understanding of "applied" philosophy as a tool for addressing life problems that confront individuals and society on a daily basis. Unlike pure
philosophy, the ultimate concern of applied philosophy is with the
implications of theory for human action. Annual conferences were held at Bowling Green from 1979 to 1986 to examine various metaphysical, epistemological and ethical issues in applied philosophy, and selection of the papers presented at each conference was assembled for each volume.
