Description
Wisdom A Skill Theory by Cheng-hung Tsai is an exploration of the nature and acquisition of wisdom. The author develops and defends a skill theory of wisdom, arguing that a wise person knows what contributes to overall attitude success, how to achieve well-being, and why they are successful in acting and living well. This Element addresses questions regarding the relationship between wisdom and skill, and provides insights into the development and defense of this theory. The book is structured around four key points: knowing what contributes to overall attitude success, knowing the best means to achieve well-being, being reliably successful at acting and living well, and understanding why one is successful. By examining these aspects of wisdom, Tsai aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of this complex concept.
