Groundbreaking essays and commentaries on the ways that recent
findings in psychology and neuroscience illuminate virtue and
character and related issues in philosophy. Philosophers have
discussed virtue and character since Socrates, but many traditional
views have been challenged by recent findings in psychology and
neuroscience. This fifth volume of Moral Psychology grows out of
this new wave of interdisciplinary work on virtue, vice, and
character. It offers essays, commentaries, and replies by leading
philosophers and scientists who explain and use empirical findings
from psychology and neuroscience to illuminate virtue and character
and related issues in moral philosophy. The contributors discuss
such topics as eliminativist and situationist challenges to
character; investigate the conceptual and empirical foundations of
self-control, honesty, humility, and compassion; and consider
whether the virtues contribute to well-being. Contributors Karl
