description: Describes a new framework for psychology that not only acknowledges virtue, but also shows how values that we already hold in common may be incorporated into psychological practice, and into our lives as a whole. The author also discusses how practical wisdom?the ability to choose one?s actions wisely?illuminates therapeutic practice, research, and professional ethics. Virtue and Psychology will prove to be a valuable resource for practitioners and researchers seeking to integrate their life with their work in a way that is rewarding personally, for those around them, and for society at large.
