Character Joel J. Kupperman (Professor of Philosophy, Professor of Philosophy, University of Connecticut)

Character By Joel J. Kupperman (Professor of Philosophy, Professor of Philosophy, University of Connecticut)

Summary

Politicians, preachers, and ordinary people speak often of character; psychologists study `personality', used as a term of art with meanings close to `character'. Most ethical philosophers in the last two hundred years, on the other hand, have not had much to say about character. This book attempts to understand character and to refocus ethical philosophy so that character is central.

Character Reviews

'It is a rare pleasure to find a work in moral philosophy that connects so straightforwardly with questions asked by ordinary persons in ordinary life. This subtle and sensible book has much to offer anyone who wants to think more clearly about character and who is concerned with strategies for instilling strong and good character in the young.'
