Developing a virtue ethics inspired by moral sentimentalism, this book argues that a reconfigured and expanded 'morality of caring' can offer a general account of right and wrong action and also of social justice. It also shows how a motive-based 'pure' virtue theory can also help understand the nature of human well-being and practical reason.
