Featuring original essays from leading scholars in philosophy and
psychology, this volume investigates and rethinks the role of
practical wisdom in light of the most recent developments in virtue
theory and moral, social and developmental psychology. The concept
of phronesis has long held a prominent place in the development of
Aristotelian virtue ethics and moral education. However, the nature
and development of phronesis is still in need of investigation,
especially because of the new insights that in recent years have
come from both philosophy and science. The essays in this volume
contribute to the debate about practical wisdom by elucidating its
role in empirical psychology and advancing important new research
questions. They address various topics related to practical wisdom
and its development, including honesty, ecocentric phronesis,
social cognitive theory, practical wisdom in limited-information
contexts, Whole Trait Theory, skill models, the reciprocity of
virtue, and challenges from situationism. Practical Wisdom will
interest researchers and advanced students working in virtue
ethics, moral psychology, and moral education.
