Publisher's Synopsis
In this book the author returns to and completes the moral theory he first began to construct in A Primer of Modern Virtue Ethics (UPA, 1995). Approaching moral theory from three distinct directions - the Moral Law, Virtue Ethics, and the pursuit of Happiness, the author shows how sustained critical reflection leads to a single, unified moral theory that finds both its natural complement and its natural completion in Christian soteriology. That same soteriology also provides answers to other significant questions of life, as the author goes on to argue in the final essay in the book, which completes his trilogy of books on topics in Christian philosophy.
