Science and Virtue (eBook, ePUB)

An Essay on the Impact of the Scientific Mentality on Moral Character

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Charting new territory in the interface between science and ethics, Science and Virtue is a study of how the scientific mentality can affect the building of character, or the attainment of virtue by the individual. Drawing on inspiration from virtue-ethics and virtue-epistemology, Caruana argues that science is not just a system of knowledge but also an important factor determining a way of life.
