From the Back Cover

Moral Competence integrates the most important aspects of ethical life into a readable, relevant, and comprehensive book. All of the material is contextualized in a coherent account of moral life that includes many case studies, queries and illustrations drawn from contemporary events. The text includes topics in moral feelings, such as guilt and shame, the sense of duty, honor, trust, and caring; issues in free will, moral luck and strength, responsibility, blame and the notion of autonomy; a discussion of a number of the most important virtues; an analysis of moral decision-making and prudence, and an examination of classic and contemporary moral principles. For those who have an interest in the traditional and enduring questions of ethics, but little or no training in philosophy.
