Hermberg and Gyllenhammer have put together a richly informed and creative collection of essays that offers compelling reasons for thinking about virtue ethics and phenomenology together. Focusing on the tradition as well as contemporary debates, the volume is an invaluable resource for those working in both fields and for anyone who questions what it is to live the good life. Janet Donohoe, Professor of Philosophy, University of West Georgia, USA Much as Edith Stein earlier in the 20th century worked to bring together Husserlian phenomenology and Thomism, the authors in this new volume definitively and carefully argue that phenomenology and virtue ethics have a great deal to say to each other. The quality of the articles is first-rate, and editors Gyllenhammer and Hermberg are to be commended on their excellent collection, which embraces both eminent, established voices in phenomenology as well as newer, rising stars. Clearly, this book will be of great use to faculty and to students in both undergraduate and graduate courses - primarily those in the history of philosophy, ancient philosophy, ethics, and phenomenology. However, the volume's main contribution lies not only in its essential re-visioning of the history of philosophy but also (and perhaps more importantly) in its creation of a meaningful, open-ended dialogue between pairs of Aristotelian and phenomenological concepts - such as friendship and horizon; flourishing and the lived-body; and habit and creativity.
