Description

Thomas Aquinas dedicated much of his most important work to the study of virtues. Even with centuries of commentary available, his approach to virtue ethics remains a subject of deep inquiry for many readers. This volume from the Routledge Studies in Ethics and Moral Theory provides a new way to look at these classic texts. In this book, Pinsent presents a unique argument to help clarify Aquinas's perspective. The research connects the specific attributes assigned to virtues with interpersonal capacities studied in the science of social cognition. By looking at these connections, particularly in the context of autistic spectrum disorder, the book offers a fresh way to understand how Aquinas viewed the relationship between human character and social interaction. This scholarly work is designed for those looking to resolve unanswered questions regarding Aquinas's moral framework. It bridges the gap between traditional theological study and modern cognitive science to provide a clearer view of one of history's most influential ethical systems.
