In the article "Reflections on Ethics in the Work of Peter Singer," the author revisits Chapter 12, "The Endless Question: Why (Should I) Act Morally?" from "Practical Ethics", unraveling Singer's arguments and reflecting on the relevance of ethics in a constantly changing world. She questions the nature of ethics and its role in overcoming egocentrism, offering a deep analysis that prompts us to reconsider our own moral values.
