The opposite of reductionism - The end of teleological ethics - Ancient ethics and modern moral philosophy - Comments on Bryan Van Norden's Virtue ethics and consequentialism in early Chinese philosophy - Hume on approval - Hume on the artificial virtues - Kant for anti-Kantians - Reconfiguring utilitarianism - Under the influence : a very personal brief history of late-twentieth-century ethics - Carol Gilligan and history of ethics. "In Essays on the History of Ethics Michael Slote collects his essays that deal with aspects of both ancient and modern ethical thought and seek to point out conceptual/normative comparisons and contrasts among different views. Arranged in chronological order of the philosopher under discussion, the relationship between ancient ethical theory and modern moral philosophy is a major theme of several of the papers and, in particular, Plato, Aristotle, Hume, Kant, and/or utilitarianism feature centrally in (most of) the discussions."-BOOK JACKET.
