Description: Cameron overviews what makes the intersection between emotion and ethics so confusing, and surveys an older wisdom in how to manage it, using a range of Christian theologians and sources. More important even than 'managing', we begin to see a vision for a better set of affections to grow within and among us. In this vision, a practical and nuanced account emerges of what the Christian tradition sometimes summarises as 'love'.

How may we recover a deep affection for what matters, both within ourselves and together in groups? Cameron also dialogues with a new movement in moral psychology, 'social intuitionism'. He argues that researchers in this discipline have interests and conclusions that sometimes overlap with Christian sources, even where their respective lenses differ. In this way, the book overviews recent trends in moral psychology against a recent historical and contemporary cultural backdrop, whilst assaying major sources in Christian theology that offer guidance on moral psychology.
