Focusing on the nature of moral judgments and the folk psychology of morality, this critical collection surveys the changing field of experimental moral psychology. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

“This timely collection showcases an emerging trend -- collaborations between philosophers and psychologists on topics of mutual interest. Contributions offer new perspectives on familiar issues, such as character, the bearer of virtues, objectivity, moral conflict and disagreement, and relativism. New or underdiscussed topics are also featured, including the nature of moral conviction, our reactions to others' expressions of virtue, the moral behavior of ethicists, and pollution and purity in moral judgments. This book is required reading for all who are interested in collaborative investigations in ethics.”

“This book is brimming with fresh ideas from leading figures in empirically informed moral psychology. It both introduces this vibrant field and moves it forward. Essential.”
