Bøger af Howard J. Curzer

Howard J. Curzer argues that character ideals seduce virtue ethicists into counterintuitive claims, mislead and psychologically harm people seeking to improve their characters, and sometimes become tools for exploitation.

This book describes 8 virtues that have proven problematic to virtue ethicists. Curzer offers novel accounts of all 8 difficult virtues, and demonstrates that they possess the standard features of Aristotelian virtues.
