Questo importante libro parla della verità, dei nemici della verità e delle guerre che si combattono tra di loro. Come dice Simon Blackburn nella sua introduzione, ''il terreno è complicato, disseminato di fortezze e trincee abbandonate, contese da alleanze mutevoli''. Truth è una guida essenziale e sicura attraverso il territorio, dai tempi classici a quelli moderni. Esamina relativismo e assolutismo, tolleranza e fede, obiettività e conoscenza, scienza e pseudoscienza e le implicazioni morali e politiche, così come le sfumature, di tutto questo.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. This important book is about truth, and the enemies of truth, and the wars that are fought between them. As Simon Blackburn says in his introduction, "the ground is complicated, strewn with abandoned fortresses and trenches, fought over by shifting alliances". Truth is an essential sure-footed guide through the territory, from classical to modern times. It looks at relativism and absolutism, toleration and belief, objectivity and knowledge, science and pseudo-science, and the moral and political implications, as well as the nuances, of all these. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Codice articolo GOR001310617
