In this comprehensive new textbook, Mark Alfano outlines the five central concepts in the study of moral psychology: agency, patiency, sociality, temporality, and reflexivity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"\u003ci\u003eMoral Psychology\u003c\/i\u003e is a first-rate contribution to philosophy and a pedagogical tour de force, a fantastic gift to scholars working in ethics and moral psychology and to our students. Alfano is wickedly smart, in complete control of all the philosophical and empirical literature in moral psychology, and writes in crystal-clear, inviting prose. The study questions are amazing challenges to think hard, often personally, about implicit bias, one's own and one's loved ones' trustworthiness, emotions, character, relativism, and the significance of morality to a good life. Simply outstanding.\"\u003cbr\u003e—\u003cb\u003eOwen Flanagan, Duke University\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"Accessibly written, though far from being a mere survey, this book is at once a concise and in the best sense idiosyncratic introduction to some recent findings in empirical moral psychology and an argued account of the relationship between those findings and moral philosophy.\"\u003cbr\u003e—\u003cb\u003eEdward Harcourt, University of Oxford\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"There is much to like about this book, and I highly recommend it.
