The Unspoken Morality of Childhood: Parenting, Self-Esteem and the Significance of Character reflects the thoughts of a senior ethicist and discusses complex ethical concepts such as identity, agency, self-esteem, forgiveness, relations with our parents, dealing with loss, the moral imagination, and a wide range of other issues that people confront every day. Each essay begins with a homey essay about the kind of everyday event that happens to us all and then proceeds to discuss the ethical issues raised by such an event. The manuscript is interdisciplinary, located at the intersection of ethics, political psychology, moral psychology, philosophy, and political science/political theory. It uses stories to teach ethics and falls in the virtue ethics approach to ethics, making it perfect as a supplementary text for introductory courses to philosophy, moral psychology and political theory.
Award-winning author and professor of political science, Kristen Renwick Monroe is a top political psychologist specializing in moral psychology. She has taught at NYU, Princeton, Harvard, and UCI and runs the Ethics Center at the University of California at Irvine.
