An insight into business students across British business schools, by YAN HUO AND KRISTJAN KRISTJANSSON Postscript by DAVID CARR IndexReviewsThis timely and scholarly work brings together leading international commentators from a range of disciplines and contexts to make the case for the role of character and virtue in professional encounters with citizens. With careful attention to concepts and definitions, it makes the case for a re-invigoration of ideas of justice, integrity, wisdom, care and compassion which resist codification in rules and regulations. Such virtues are contingent, situational and must be made anew in each encounter. They require organisational environments in which practical reasoning and the deliberation of matters of value can flourish. Sue White, Professor of Social Work, University of Sheffield. Cultivating Moral Character and Virtue in Professional Practice is not only relevant to the distinctive and individual professional fields represented by its multidisciplinary collection of chapters, but also simultaneously relevant to all.The issues raised by the authors are universal in their timely recognition of personal character and professional practice as being intricately interwoven. The power of this unique book is grounded in its refreshingly compelling convictions with respect to contemporary virtue theory and how, through this general lens, we can come to define, develop, support, and enable the professional work of ethical practitioners.
