Politicians from both parties, leading intellectuals, and concerned citizens from diverse backgrounds are addressing questions about the content of our character. William Bennett's moral guide for children, A Book of Virtues, was a national bestseller. Yet many continue to associate virtue with a prudish, Victorian morality or with crude attempts by government to legislate morals. Peter Berkowitz clarifies the fundamental issues, arguing that a certain ambivalence toward virtue reflects the liberal spirit at its best. Drawing on recent scholarship as well as classical political philosophy, he makes his case with penetrating analyses of four central figures in the making of modern liberalism: Hobbes, Locke, Kant, and Mill. These thinkers are usually understood to have neglected or disparaged virtue. Yet Berkowitz shows that they all believed that government resting on the fundamental premise of liberalism--the natural freedom and equality of all human beings--could not work unless citizens and officeholders possess particular qualities of mind and character. These virtues, which include reflective judgment, sympathetic imagination, self-restraint, the ability to cooperate, and toleration do not arise spontaneously but must be cultivated. Berkowitz explores the various strategies the thinkers employ as they seek to give virtue its due while respecting individual liberty. Liberals, he argues, must combine energy and forbearance, finding public and private ways to support such nongovernmental institutions as the family and voluntary associations. For these institutions, the liberal tradition powerfully suggests, play an indispensable role not only in forming the virtues on which liberal democracy depends but in overcoming the vices that it tends to engender. Clearly written and vigorously argued, this is a provocative work of political theory that speaks directly to complex issues at the heart of contemporary philosophy and public discussion. New Forum Books makes available to general readers outstanding, original, interdisciplinary scholarship with a special focus on the juncture of culture, law, and politics. New Forum Books is guided by the conviction that law and politics not only reflect culture, but help to shape it. Authors include leading political scientists, sociologists, legal scholars, philosophers, theologians, historians, and economists writing for nonspecialist readers and scholars across a range of fields. Looking at questions such as political equality, the concept of rights, the problem of virtue in liberal politics, crime and punishment, population, poverty, economic development, and the international legal and political order, New Forum Books seeks to explain--not explain away--the difficult issues we face today. 410 0$aNew forum books. 606 $aLiberalism 606 $aLiberalism$xMoral and ethical aspects 615 0$aLiberalism. 615 0$aLiberalism$xMoral and ethical aspects. 676 $a320.51/3/0973 700 $aBerkowitz$b Peter$f1959-$0540794 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910955610003321 996 $aVirtue and the making of modern liberalism$94336452 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04872nam 22007095 450 001 9911031560603321 005 20251001130527.0 010 $a3-031-98584-2 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-031-98584-3 035 $a(CKB)41520807200041 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC32323318 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL32323318 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-031-98584-3 035 $a(OCoLC)1546966738 035 $a(EXLCZ)9941520807200041 100 $a20251001d2025 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 14$aThe Future of Coral Reefs $eEvidence from Research /$fedited by Serge Planes 205 $a1st ed. 2025. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer Nature Switzerland :$cImprint: Springer,$d2025. 215 $a1 online resource (582 pages) 225 1 $aCoral Reefs of the World,$x2213-7203 ;$v21 311 08$a3-031-98583-4 327 $aChapter 1.

Structured as an interconnected narrative, the volume delves into critical topics such as reef biodiversity, trophic ecology, environmental histories revealed by coral skeletons, and coral nutrition strategies. Central themes include the physiological and ecological responses of corals to thermal stress and ocean acidification, the adaptive mechanisms underpinning coral bleaching, and innovative restoration techniques aimed at reef recovery. Advanced methodologies such as high-resolution remote sensing, environmental DNA (eDNA) monitoring, and geochemical analyses enrich our understanding of these dynamic ecosystems. Importantly, the book bridges natural sciences with human dimensions, exploring historical human?reef interactions and community-based conservation practices. This interdisciplinary approach highlights both scientific innovation and traditional ecological knowledge as vital components for effective reef management. Ultimately, the chapters collectively offer actionable insights and strategic frameworks for policymakers, scientists, and communities committed to safeguarding coral reefs. As these ecosystems face unprecedented threats, this book underscores not only their vulnerability but also their remarkable capacity for resilience and adaptation, providing a hopeful vision for coral reef conservation in our rapidly changing world. Additionally, the book opens discussion on emerging challenges and identifies critical future research directions, encouraging continued innovation and collaboration within the scientific community. 410 0$aCoral Reefs of the World,$x2213-7203 ;$v21 606 $aFreshwater ecology 606 $aMarine ecology 606 $aEcology 606 $aOceanography 606 $aConservation biology 606 $aBioclimatology 606 $aFreshwater and Marine Ecology 606 $aBiooceanography 606 $aConservation Biology 606 $aClimate Change Ecology 606 $aOcean Sciences 615 0$aFreshwater ecology. 615 0$aMarine ecology. 615 0$aEcology. 615 0$aOceanography. 615 0$aConservation biology. 615 0$aBioclimatology. 615 14$aFreshwater and Marine Ecology. 615 24$aBiooceanography. 615 24$aConservation Biology. 615 24$aClimate Change Ecology. 615 24$aOcean Sciences. 676 $a577.6 676 $a577.7 700 $aPlanes$b Serge$01308941 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911031560603321 996 $aThe Future of Coral Reefs$94443897 997 $aUNINA
