Description

Review "...contributions to Perfecting Virtue are interesting and well-written, and for that reason alone the essays are worth reading. The primary value and relevance of the book however, lies less with the individual contributions, than with the combined effect of these essays on the reader..." --Carsten Fogh Nielsen, Ph.D., University of Aarhus, Metapsychology Online Reviews Product Description In western philosophy today, the three leading approaches to normative ethics are those of Kantian ethics, virtue ethics and utilitarianism. In recent years the debate between Kantian ethicists and virtue ethicists has assumed an especially prominent position. The twelve newly commissioned essays in this volume, by leading scholars in both traditions, explore key aspects of each approach as related to the debate, and identify new common ground but also real and lasting differences between these approaches. The volume provides a rich overview of the continuing debate between two powerful forms of enquiry, and will be valuable for a wide range of students and scholars working in these fields. Book Description This book presents the debate between Kantian ethicists and virtue ethicists in twelve new essays by internationally recognized leaders in both traditions. About the Author Lawrence Jost is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Cincinnati. He is the co-editor of Eudaimonia and Well-Being (2003). Julian Wuerth is Associate Professor of Philosophy at Vanderbilt University. He is the author of Kant on Mind, Action, and Ethics (2010).
