This anthology can be used to cover the virtue ethics component of an ethics course, either in conjunction with one of the larger ethics texts -- many include no material on virtue theory, or very little -- or with free standing editions; as the centrepiece of a course devoted entirely to virtue theory; or as a component of an introductory course that includes a section on ethics. Part 1 includes readings from five classic thinkers with importantly distinct approaches to virtue. Part 2 provides five new essays from contemporary thinkers that apply virtue theories to the resolution of practical moral problems. Jennifer Welchman provides a general Introduction on the history of virtue theory, a short introduction to each selection that highlights the distinctive aspects of the author's view, and suggested further readings for each selection.

Colm Tóibíin, the award-winning journalist of Typically the Get good atand Brooklyn, works the focus at the intricate connections among fathers and even sons—specially your stresses within fictional leaders Oscar Wilde, Billy Joyce, W.B. Yeats, along with your fathers. Wilde loathed the pops, despite the fact identified that they are completely alike. Joyce's gregarious parent owned her child by Ireland as a result of his particular volatile disposition and then drinking. Whereas Yeats's biological father, some sort of catamount, ended up being apparently a marvelous conversationalist whoever yakety-yak was in fact way more finished compared to pictures he produced. Most of these legendary males and therefore the dads exactly who given a hand to figure these products appear alive around Tóibín's retelling, as will Dublin's vibrant inhabitants.
