Michael Slote

Michael Slote is UST Professor of Ethics at the University of Miami. A former Tanner lecturer, he is a member of the Royal Irish Academy. His main contribution to ethics and metaethics can be found in the book Moral Sentimentalism (Oxford University Press, 2010); and he has more recently brought in Chinese thought in order to find a way to integrate such thought with Western philosophy: not only in ethics, but in epistemology and philosophy of mind as well. His book The Philosophy of Yin and Yang: A Contemporary Approach was published by the Commercial Press in Beijing in 2018-with side-by-side English language and Chinese language texts. A sequel is due to be published next year, and his most recent contribution to the project of integration is to be found in the book Philosophical Essays East and West, which has just been published by Palgrave/Macmillan.
