Description
Exploring the debate between two influential approaches to normative ethics, this collection of essays brings together leading scholars from both Kantian and virtue ethical traditions.
The twelve newly-commissioned essays in "Perfecting Virtue" examine key aspects of each approach as related to the ongoing discussion, highlighting new common ground while also revealing lasting differences between these two powerful forms of enquiry.
Valuable for students and scholars working in philosophy and ethics, this volume provides a rich overview of the current state of the debate, offering insights into the enduring relevance of both Kantian and virtue ethical perspectives.
