Although I've heard of them, I haven't read the "guide book" or the “sequel”. I'd probably have to hear "some good things" about the sequel before trying it. I think writing a book on morals would be tough. Philosophy is a series questions - not to be answered, but to be explored. Two of the more famous are right-wrong and true-false. I took the easy road, and concentrated on true-false. It's not that right-wrong isn't important, it's just a whole lot harder. The whole moral spiel has elements of a "high wire act over a slippery slope”. Recall that after his brilliant “Critique of Pure Reason”, Kant struggled in his “Critique of Practical Reason.” OTOH, given what I observe, an inquiry into the foundations of morals would be a worthwhile journey for many. And I can always use a little “brushin’ up”. JMO lurqer
