Double-weighted statement

Virtue and Reason in Plato and Aristotle (OUP 2011, 356 pp.) is a comprehensive study of their moral psychology. As a reviewer said ‘The four parts cover eudaimonia in Plato and Aristotle, virtue in Plato and Aristotle, practical reasoning in Plato and Aristotle, and akrasia in Plato and Aristotle. So the book is not lying in its title.’ The second half of the book itself draws on seven earlier pieces, of which five have been published since 2008. The books attends closely to six dialogues of Plato, both Aristotelian Ethics, and other relevant Aristotelian writings.
