- catalog abstract ""Raja Halwani demonstrates that virtue ethics can shed light upon three crucial areas of our lives: care, love, and sex. He advances three groundbreaking claims: first, care should be construed as a virtue, and care ethics should be subsumed under virtue ethics. Second, romantic love is an emotion and not a virtue and the best (most moral) love is the one found in a virtuous person. Third, virtue ethics allows for sexual lifestyles (promiscuity, open relationships, and sex work) that are abjured by traditional morality."--Jacket.".
