Because she is widely regarded in the field of contemporary philosophy of religion, Linda Trinkaus Zagzebski's latest book will be a major contribution to ethical theory and theological ethics. At the core of her work lies a new form of virtue theory based on the emotions. Distinct from deontological, consequentialist and teleological virtue theories, this theory has a particular theological Christian foundation. ~ Product Description • "Well-written and cogently argued, this is an important text... Agree or disagree with Zagzebski's arguments, most readers will profit from this fine work." ~ J.A. Colombo, University of San Diego
