It draws on the work of Aristotle, Socrates, Plato--and on the words of Dante, Spinoza, Kant, Martin Seligman, Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, Martin Luther King, Jr., and Chuang Tzu. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEthicist Gregory Beabout describes Aristotle's lectures as aimed, not at the young, but at listeners \"experienced in life . . . with a desire to pursue the common good and in possession of a sense of what it is to live a beautiful, meaningful life.\" This wise little book contemplates the quest for courage, justice, temperance, wisdom, empathy, humility, and much more--timeless goals that also remain timely. A chapter on \"Ethics in Real Life\" invites the reader to explore two contemporary dilemmas and puzzle out the ethical choices when the situations \"present a clear choice whether or not to do something that appears wrong, in order to avert an apparently greater evil.\" Featuring chapters on medical ethics, workplace ethics, and environmental ethics, \u003ci\u003eEthics: The Art of Character\u003c\/i\u003e distills the wisdom of the ages into a sixty-four-page, unforgettable life lesson.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47046451626224,"sku":"9781635570830","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781635570830_p0.jpg?v=1763682997","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781635570830","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
