this page will help you alot - http://www.rsrevision.com/Alevel/ethics/virtue_ethics/. Basically, Macintyre wanted more focus on people and the lives, rather than reason. And that virtues varied depending on the culture and the time.

Hope this helps.
Nothings going to tell you- its something you'll have to work out yourself

this book: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Ethical-Studies-Second-Robert-Bowie/dp/0748780793/ref=sr_1_32?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1228530287&sr=8-32

is an excellent guide when it comes to this, I'd fully reccomend it!
