Reviews"...a new and somewhat unprecedented (at least in Aristotle scholarship) genre of collection.... Jon Miller's introduction surveys major ethical philosophers writing between approximately 1870 and 1960 such as Henry Sidgwick, G. E. Moore, and R. M. Hare to show what Miller calls a surprising episode in the reception of Aristotle's Ethics..." Thornton C. Lockwood, Quinnipiac University, Bryn Mawr Classical Review
