Deadly Vices

By Gabriele Taylor

Book Overview

Gabriele Taylor presents a philosophical investigation of the "ordinary" vices traditionally seen as "death to the soul" sloth, envy, avarice, pride, anger, lust, and gluttony. In the course of a richly detailed discussion of individual and interrelated vices, which complements recent work by moral philosophers on virtue, she shows why these "deadly sins" are correctly so named and grouped together.
