What is a good life? What does it mean to be a good person? Richard
White answers these questions by considering aspects of moral
goodness through the virtues: courage, temperance, justice,
compassion and wisdom. White explores how moral virtues affect and
support social movements such as pacifism, environmentalism,
multiculturalism, and animal rights. Drawing on the works of Plato,
Aristotle, Hume, Nietzsche and others, White's philosophical
treatment of virtue ethics is extended through historical and
cross-cultural analysis, and he examines the lives of Socrates,
Buddha, and Gandhi who lived virtuous lives to help the reader
understand and acquire moral wisdom.
