Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
This excellent new book should be welcomed by readers looking for an introduction to virtue ethics, celebrated by those looking for an apology for virtue ethics, and prized by those looking for a constructive Christian account of virtue ethics.
–Allen Verhey, The Evert J. and Hattie E. Blekkink Professor of Religion, Hope College
Anyone looking for a good book to read on the recent `return to virtue’ in moral theory should begin with Kotva. Not only has he read everything that has been written on the subject but even more, he has read it well. His accounts of recent philosophical discussions are as interesting and well done as his constructive theological task. His use of Scripture is particularly noteworthy.
–Stanley M. Hauerwas, Gilbert T. Rowe Professor of Theological Ethics, Duke University
