"William James (1842-1910) is best known for his groundbreaking work in the study of consciousness, psychology of emotions, and philosophy of religion and for the development of the philosophy of pragmatism. His moral philosophy and beliefs about the ethical life have received far less attention and are more difficult to categorize. Was James a Stoic? a utilitarian? a deontologist? an existentialist? a virtue ethicist? Distinguishing between early James and late James, this collection provides an illuminating and welcome map of where things stand in James's moral and ethical thought as they relate to the history of moral and ethical philosophy. Goodson (Southwestern College) organizes the essays in roughly chronological order according to James's writings. This allows readers to see the evolution and development of James's ideas in moral and ethical philosophy over the course of his life. This volume is required reading for anyone interested in exploring the distinctive contributions James made to moral and ethical thought. Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-division undergraduates through faculty; general readers." -- Choice Reviews, William James (1842-1910) is best known for his groundbreaking work in the study of consciousness, psychology of emotions, and philosophy of religion and for the development of the philosophy of pragmatism.

Synopsis
Virtue theory, natural law, deontology, utilitarianism, existentialism: these are the basic moral theories taught in "Ethics," "History of Philosophy," and "Introduction to Philosophy" courses throughout the United States. When the American philosopher William James (1842 - 1910) find his way into these conversations, there is uncertainty about where his thinking fits. While utilitarianism has become the default position for teaching James's pragmatism and radical empiricism, this default position fails to address and explain James's multiple criticisms of John Stuart Mill's formulaic approach to questions concerning the moral life. Through close readings of James's writings, the chapters in William James, Moral Philosophy, and the Ethical Life catalogue the ways in which James wants to avoid the following: (a) the hierarchies of Christian natural law theory, (b) the moral calculus of Mill's utilitarianism, (c) the absolutism and principle-ism of Immanuel Kant's deontology, and (d) the staticity of the virtues found in Aristotle's moral theory. Elaborating upon and clarifying James's differences from these dominant moral theories is a crucial feature of this collection. This collection, is not, however, intended to be wholly negative - that is, only describing to readers what James's moral theory is not. It seeks to articulate the positive features of James's ethics and moral reasoning: what does it mean to an ethical life, and how should we theorize about morality?, This edited volume demonstrates that a virtue-centered approach to the ethical life is a consistent feature of William James's moral reasoning from the 1880s until his death in 1910. Little else, however, seems constant within James's writings on moral philosophy and the ethical life, and this lack of constancy is what keeps James's work of interest more than a century later., Virtue theory, natural law, deontology, utilitarianism, existentialism: these are the basic moral theories taught in "Ethics," "History of Philosophy," and "Introduction to Philosophy" courses throughout the United States.
