Portraits of Socrates, Mencius, Rama and Job, alongside the aspirational 16th-century couple John and Dorothy Kaye, civil rights activist Ella Baker and an anonymous banker, highlight the persisting - sometimes conflicting - features of a life lived with integrity. An introduction identifies and discusses the key questions and themes raised by the case studies, encouraging the reader to determine for themselves the weight and significance of the recurring topics integrity brings up - truth, awkwardness, goodness, and charisma.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor anyone looking to learn more about this elusive virtue, \u003ci\u003ePortraits of Integrity\u003c\/i\u003e is an essential collection. It uncovers the manifold aspects of integrity, illustrates the various possibilities for its expression in a life and asks whether living a life of integrity means living a life of isolation and hardship, or if it is possible to live with integrity without jeopardising all else.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charlotte Alston\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1350040371\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350040373\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/16\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.11lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.75d","brand":"Charlotte Alston","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47244110856447,"sku":"9781350040373","price":110.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_33964502-daa7-41b8-94da-0f0d65d3914c.jpg?v=1758134964","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/portraits-of-integrity-charlotte-alston-9781350040373","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
