| Sommario/riassunto: | Rosalind Hursthouse, who has done much to restore the virtues to prominence in contemporary moral philosophy, now presents a full exposition and defence of her own version of virtue ethics. She discusses a wide range of philosophical topics, including action, duty, dilemmas, moral absolutism, and the moral significance of the emotions. Her clear, engaging style will make On Virtue Ethics attractive to readers at all levels. |
