Book excerpt: "Based on Plato's presentation, Rabieh argues that a refined version of traditional heroic courage, notwithstanding certain excesses to which it is prone, is worth honoring and cultivating for several reasons. Chief among these is that, by facilitating the pursuit of wisdom, such courage can provide a crucial foundation for the courage most deserving of the name." "Recent concerns about political and military leadership have rekindled in Americans questions about the virtue of courage. As long as the survival of a nation requires heroic action by its citizens, this ancient virtue will have a place in the modern world."--BOOK JACKET.
