Book Synopsis From Natural Character to Moral Virtue in Aristotle by : Mariska Leunissen
Book excerpt: This book discusses Aristotle's biological views about 'natural character traits' and their importance for moral development. It provides a new, comprehensive account of the physiological underpinnings of moral development and shows that the biological account of natural character provides the conceptual and ideological foundation for Aristotle's ethical views about habituation.
