Values and the Reflective Point of View (eBook, ePUB)

On Expressivism, Self-Knowledge and Agency

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Values are inescapable. They pervade and shape our psychology, our agency and our lives as reflective and self-knowing subjects. This book explores the crucial ways in which values figure within reflection and thereby shape our theoretical and practical lives, against the backdrop of an expressivist moral psychology that is sensitive to the vicissitudes of valuing.
