This is the first book to bring together Western and Chinese perspectives on both moral and intellectual virtue. Editors Michael Slote, Chienkuo Mi, and Ernest Sosa have assembled some of the world’s leading epistemologists and ethicists—located in the U.S., Europe, and Asia—to explore in a global context what they are calling, "the virtue turn.

This is the first book to bring together Western and Chinese perspectives on both moral and intellectual virtues. Editors Chienkuo Mi, Michael Slote, and Ernest Sosa have assembled some of the world’s leading epistemologists and ethicists—located in the U.S., Europe, and Asia—to explore in a global context what they are calling, "the virtue turn." The 15 chapters have never been published previously and by covering topics that bridge epistemology and moral philosophy suggest a widespread philosophical turn away from Kantian and Utilitarian issues and towards character- and agent-based concerns. A goal of this volume is to show students and researchers alike that the (re-)turn toward virtue underway in the Western tradition is being followed by a similar (re-)turn toward virtue in Chinese philosophy.

Chienkuo Mi is Chair and Professor of philosophy at Soochow University, Taipei, Taiwan, and President of Taiwan Philosophical Association. He has published widely in Chinese and English on topics in epistemology, philosophy of language, and Chinese philosophy. His recent research brings together issues in virtue epistemology and Chinese philosophy. Michael Slote is UST Professor of Ethics at the University of Miami. He is the author of books and articles in ethics, epistemology, and the philosophy of mind. His recently published works include The Routledge Companion to Virtue Ethics (with Lorraine Besser-Jones, Routledge 2015), A Sentimentalist Theory of the Mind (2014), and Virtue Ethics and Confucianism (with Stephen Angle, Routledge 2013). He is now working on issues that bridge the gap between Western and Chinese philosophy. Ernest Sosa is Board of Governors Professor of Philosophy at Rutgers University. He is the Editor of Philosophy and Phenomenological Research and of Noûs. His recently published books include Judgment and Agency (2015) and Knowing Full Well (2011).
