- Summary
- "In this book, the most influential manifestations of this strategy are subjected to critical analysis for the first time. Topics discussed include value and mental content, the normativity of instrumental reason, the fact/value distinction, values and secondary qualities, objectivity in ethics and science, and the normativity of ethics, logic and mathematics." "This book will be a useful resource for anyone interested in questions of objectivity in ethics and elsewhere. As well as offering an original perspective on some of the most hotly debated questions in recent philosophy, this book also serves as a systematic introduction to central issues in meta-ethics."--Jacket.
