This collection features 26 new essays on character from first-rate scholars in philosophy, psychology, economics, and law. The essays are elegantly written and combine forceful argumentation with original ideas on a wide range of questions, such as:”Is Aristotle’s theory of character a moral theory?,” “Are character traits in tension with personal autonomy”, “How do traits differ from mental disorders?,” “What is the role of gossip in character attribution?,” and “Can businessmen be virtuous?” The chapters are organized thematically into 5 sections, each prefaced by its own special introduction. In the introductions, the editor brings out often unexpected connections among different lines of argument pursued by the authors and raises important questions for further discussion. The collection as a whole offers students of character a unique opportunity to engage with some of the best contemporary work on the topic.
