Christian B. Miller

Character and Moral Psychology (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Christian Miller explores ethical implications of his new theory of character, which holds that our characters are made up of mixed traits with some morally positive and some morally negative aspects. He examines whether judgements of character are systematically erroneous, and assesses the challenge to virtue ethics from scepticism about virtue.
