Most recently he expanded his work on sentimentalism into aphilosophy of mind (book 2014). In his latest work he also stresses the importance of receptivity as a virtue, a value and as a psychological characteristic (article 2014 and book 2013). The significance of receptivity feature was first considered byNel Noddings in 1984, but did not receive further attention in the ethics of care neither was it used to criticize typical Western philosophical values. InThe Impossibility of Perfection, he argues against moral perfection as it was endorsed byAristotle and theEnlightenment and defends a more realistic view of moral issues.[citation needed]
