Abstract

This remarkable book draws the reader into philosophizing. In showing us old (familiar) things about philosophical and human matters in new and important ways, it offers, as I see it, a new theistically-oriented and phenomenologically explicated existentialism.1 Though not a book for the philosophically or spiritually faint of heart (well, maybe the latter should have a look) perhaps singular among the many achievements of Moral Emotions is Steinbock’s ability to do philosophy in a way that does justice to both spheres of philosophical interest, the scholarly and the human.
