Recenzje

This book provides a clear picture of where things stand with honesty in an academic context. Miller, who directs the Honesty Project at Wake Forest, offers an extended philosophical account of the concept of honesty and what being an honest person means. He reflects on the nature of character and offers interesting diversions on cheating, self-deception, stealing, promising, and so on.
