Aristotle on the Apparent Good - Perception, Phantasia, Thought, and Desire - Paperback - 2014

Jessica Moss presents a bold and controversial account of Aristotles moral psychology. She argues that on Aristotles view things appear good to us in virtue of a psychological capacity responsible for quasiperceptual phenomena: phantasia imagination. Her interpretation restricts the role of reason in ethics, and prioritises pleasure instead.
