Joel Marks

Reason and Ethics (eBook, ePUB)

The Case Against Objective Value

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book defends the theoretical claim that all values are subjective and the practical claim that human affairs can be conducted fruitfully in full awareness of this. Marks offers a positive account of how life may be lived productively without recourse to assertions of right and wrong, good and bad, and even truth and falsity.
