Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

In this Christian take on classical virtue ethics, Kevin J. Brown invites us to explore what it means to live the virtuous life--and why that is so important. Today the word virtue can sound legalistic or old-fashioned, but in the past it was used to describe the fullness of human excellence in accordance with God's design. This book seeks to recapture that definition, weaving in modern-day examples from economics, politics, and pop culture to create a relevant framework that relates faith to contemporary ethical questions.
