This book argues that this dismissal is unjustifiable. The validity of this claim is established in four steps. First, it proposes the concept of moral paradigm. This concept enables us to explore the source of moral value and to provide a criterion for the evaluation of the adequacy of moral theory. Second, the book explains why medieval, modern and twentieth century moral theorists neglected friendship as a central moral value in their analysis of moral behavior and why this neglect was unjustifiable. Third, it explains why the classical moral philosophers viewed friendship as a central moral value. Fourth, it argues that friendship is an ontological need, therefore, a necessary condition of the moral life. This need is implicitly recognized in the moral paradigms that underlie the moral theories of the medieval, modern, and twentieth century moral theories. Accordingly it cannot be neglected in the process of moral theorizing.Value inquiry book series ;v. 239.FriendshipPhilosophyElectronic books.FriendshipPhilosophy.177.62Mitias Michael H851735MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910461291803321Friendship1996016UNINA01334oam 2200385 a 450 991069971500332120110330142239.0(CKB)5470000002405800(OCoLC)690936396(EXLCZ)99547000000240580020101209d2010 ua 0engurbn|||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierDistracted Driving Prevention Act of 2009[electronic resource] report of the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation on S. 1938Washington :U.S. G.P.O.,2010.1 online resource (ii, 24 pages)Report / 111th Congress, 2d session, Senate ;111-355Title from title screen (viewed on Dec. 8, 2010)."November 30, 2010."Includes bibliographical references.Distracted Driving Prevention Act of 2009 Distracted drivingUnited StatesPreventionTraffic regulationsUnited StatesDistracted drivingPrevention.Traffic regulationsGPOGPOGPOBOOK9910699715003321Distracted Driving Prevention Act of 20093518856UNINA
