Beschreibung
“This book reports fascinating research that articulates what moral and intellectual virtues really mean, in practice, in two very different fields. I hope institutions that support quality work in these and other fields will be inspired and guided by these vivid portrayals of honesty, integrity, trust, precision, imagination, and creativity.”
--Anne Colby, Stanford University, USA
This book provides an integrative interdisciplinary view of how intellectual and moral virtues are understood in two separate practices, science and music. The authors engage with philosophical and psychological accounts of virtue to understand scientists’ and musicians’ understandings of intellectual and moral virtues. They present empirical evidence substantiating the MacIntyrean claim that traditions and practices are central to understanding the virtues."

“Drawing on a rich philosophical framework for thinking about the virtues, the authors carefully conducted interviews of practitioners of the laboratory sciences and ensemble music. The results were fascinating and shed a great deal of light on how particular moral and intellectual virtues are conceived of by individuals engaging in these practices. This is highly innovative and important work that I hope will be continued and expanded upon in the coming years!” (Christian B. Miller, A. C. Reid Professor of Philosophy, Wake Forest University, USA, and author most recently of The Character Gap (2017), Moral Psychology (2021), and Honesty: The Philosophy and Psychology of a Neglected Virtue (2021))
