Sobre IBD

A professor of philosophy explores perfectionism as it relates to the writings of Aristotle, Aquinas, Hegel, Marx, Nietzsche, and T.H. Green. Proposing original theses about long-neglected issues in ethics, 'Perfectionism' is of interest to moral and political philosophers and those involved in contemporary moral theory or the history of ethics.
