After Virtue: A Study in Moral Theory, Third Edition

Alasdair MacIntyre
Tim GorichanazTim Gorichanaz

Spent the last few weeks reading "After Virtue" by Alasdair MacIntyre for the first time... It came out in 1981, but it feels like it could have come out today—which is unsettling. Though I suppose 40 years is just a blink on the timescale of history he is considering.
