Title: Beyond virtue
First published: 1997
Description: Beyond Virtue explores the concept of integrity and its implications for various aspects of morality including virtue, moral law, autonomy and personhood. It also uses the concept of integrity to analyse elements of Aquinas's ethics including the place of the emotions in morality, the appearance and role of the body, mortal and transcendent happiness, and virtue.

Hayden Ramsay argues against the traditional account of the virtues as dispositions for a neo-Kantian view of Virtue as commitment to objective human goods. He describes a natural law theory of these goods and develops new accounts of virtue as commitment, and of integrity as commitment to reasonableness expressed in life-planning.
