For this task the distinction between love as an emotion or emotional orientation and virtuous forms of love is central, as is the role of a conception of practical wisdom in virtuous love. How love features in virtue in general, including virtues which are not virtues of love, is the central theme. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book integrates virtue ethics with a renewed interest in the role of love in ethics. Until now virtue ethics and philosophical accounts of love have been separate fields. In Swanton's account of love she argues that there are many criteria for love which feature in various ways in the different forms of love. Central is the distinction between relational love between individuals and lovingness (in its various forms) as a fundamental emotional orientation towards the world as a whole (a \u003cem\u003eGrundstimmung\u003c\/em\u003e). \u003cem\u003eLove and its Place in Virtue\u003c\/em\u003e discusses \"foundational\" love (universal love, self-love and dwelling love), some of the impartial virtues of love, notably universal beneficence, impartial caring and forgiveness, as well as the relation between love and the personal virtue of justice, arguing that though justice is a virtue of respect it should be loving.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eChristine Swanton, \u003cem\u003eRetired Honorary Research Fellow, University of Auckland\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eChristine Swanton is Honorary Research Fellow at the University of Auckland.
