Author: Nussbaum, Martha. C.,
Title: The fragility of goodness: luck and ethics in Greek tragedy and philosophy.
Description: This book is a study of ancient views about 'moral luck'. It examines the fundamental ethical problem that many of the valued constituents of a well-lived life are vulnerable to factors outside a person's control, and asks how this affects our appraisal of persons and their lives. The Greeks made a profound contribution to these questions, yet neither the problems nor the Greek views of them have received the attention they deserve. l Cambridge University Press . Cambridge 2001 Pb. 544 pp. Very good copy.
