In the process, Farley critically reviews the current philosophical and theological interest in virtue, engages the Aristotelian, Thomist, and modern views of virtue, incorporates and responds to feminist concerns, and discusses the importance of the biblical virtues for our pluralistic age.   Reader's Index Send us your favorite quotes or passages from this book.   About the Author Table of Contents Preface 1.
