Audrey L. Anton is Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Western Kentucky University.
The Bright and the Good is a noteworthy and worthwhile collection.
It offers considerable insight into the relationships that hold
between intellectual and moral virtues, both in terms of their
nature and their formation. This collection is valuable to both
scholars interested in the history of virtue ethics and those
working in contemporary virtue theory.
