Reviews

'Paula Gottlieb's examination of the inter-penetration of thought and feeling in Aristotle's conception of a virtuous person is essential reading both for specialists and for anyone interested in virtue ethics. Her opposition to interpretations that liken Aristotle to Hume or Kant is thorough, judicious, and convincing.' Richard Kraut, Northwestern University


'Paula Gottlieb's examination of the inter-penetration of thought and feeling in Aristotle's conception of a virtuous person is essential reading both for specialists and for anyone interested in virtue ethics. Her opposition to interpretations that liken Aristotle to Hume or Kant is thorough, judicious, and convincing.' Richard Kraut, Northwestern University 'This book is an excellent, eminently readable, and scholarly choice for the reader seeking both a well-argued general description of Aristotle's Ethics and an examination of its many puzzling details. Includes excellent bibliographical references. Highly Recommended.' P. A. Streveler, Choice
