In particular, this book considers the ethical thought of ancient thinkers, particularly the ancient Greeks and their concept of \u003ci\u003eeudaimonia\u003c\/i\u003e, arguing that within those traditions better alternatives can be found to the rational choice utilitarianism characteristic of modern economic theory and policy. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Donald G.
