The Theory and Practice of Virtue Education offers the reader a comprehensive and authoritative account of both the theoretical and practical complexities of virtue ethics in education and beyond. This practical approach is further evidenced in the final section, where individual virtues are discussed. This collection of excellent chapters sits at the interface of education and ethical philosophy, and provides a smorgasbord of topics that should be of interest to educators wishing to understand the philosophical bases of virtues education as well as to philosophers wishing to explore practical applications of virtue theory to educational practice. - Marvin W. Berkowitz, Ph.D. University of Missouri-St. Louis. This book includes a collection of the most interesting and important papers from the 2016 Jubilee Centre for Character and Virtues conference on cultivating virtue. The contributing authors include some of the most distinguished international academics leading the field. The book is a must read for anyone interested in human flourishing who wants to know more about the theory and practice of virtue education.? - Professor James Arthur, Director: Jubilee Centre for Character and Virtues, University of Birmingham. This is a conference volume of consistently high quality that avoids most of the pitfalls of the genre. Students and scholars who work in moral philosophy or the philosophy of education-and especially any whose work focuses on character and virtue-would benefit from an afternoon (or more) with this collection. - Journal of Markets & Morality
