{"product_id":"ethics-the-art-of-character-wooden-books-1","title":"Ethics: The Art of Character (Wooden Books, 1)","description":"An engaging, thought-provoking, illustrated analysis of the classical principles of ethics applied to everyday dilemmas.\n\nEthics: The Art of Character is the quintessential little book of big ideas. 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.\n\nEthicist 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, Ethics: The Art of Character distills the wisdom of the ages into a sixty-four-page, unforgettable life lesson.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1635570832\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1635570832.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Beabout, Gregory\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
