Publisher's Synopsis
Many of us strive to better ourselves as moral agents. This process begins at childhood, where we learn by example and instruction from authority figures. At this stage, we are often told what's right and wrong, and learn by accepting the moral testimony of our parents and teachers. As we progress through childhood and adolescence, we typically become better at figuring out what's right and wrong on our own, and learn how to successfully navigate increasingly complex situations. And once we reach adulthood, it's commonly thought that we become fully fledged moral agents.
