On Virtue and Vice: Metaphysical Foundations of the Doctrine of the Mean: 6 (Revisioning Philosophy) - Hardcover
Inhaltsangabe
On Virtue and Vice is a treatise in ethics. It offers a systematic and historical study of the Doctrine of the Mean. The book argues for a triadic approach to ethical notions (for example, Goodness and two forms of Badness and Justice and two forms of Injustice). The approach of the book is intertwined with a critical study of the relevant thought both of Western thinkers (Pythagoras, Plato, Aristotle, Thomas Aquinas and David Hume) and also of Eastern thinkers (Confucius, Mencius and Chu Hsi). A further aim of the book is to apply the Doctrine to contemporary life.

Críticas
-In this original and penetrating examination of the Doctrine of the Mean, Richard Bosley enriches our appreciation of an idea too often neglected or written off as a kind of lapse of good judgment. Excess, sufficiency, and defect are here shown to be among the most important notions a philosopher can employ, a point perhaps better appreciated in the ancient East than in the West, and Bosley's careful argumentation, scholarship, and inventiveness will challenge even the most skeptical reader.- (G.A. Spangler, State University of California, Long Beach)
-As a fellow worker in the comparative field, I admire especially the way 'On Virtue and Vice' weaves together the strands of East and West, for the purpose of a reunified philosophy.- (David Appelbaum, The College at New Paltz) -The importance of this study is that Bosley invites us to understand the dynamics of the Mean in a way that is fresh and relevant to contemporary questions of the ethics and justice.- (Geoffry Ng., The Reader's Review)
