Publications

Over the years Centre for Ethics has published or helped to publish a number of books that include translations, collections of confreneces papers, handbooks, etc.

Most of the work has been done by the personnel of the Centre. We would like to thank Sirje Ratso for designing us a whole set of books and the Open Estonia Foundation and Eesti Keele Sihtasutus for supporting us.
