Truth: A Guide (Simon Blackburn) — Truth 1
from Dratsi Pod
Simon Blackburn surveys philosophical disputes about truth and our ability to recognize it. He examines relativism, objectivity, belief, and the relationship between knowledge and justification. The discussion moves between classical arguments and modern challenges to absolute truth. Scientific inquiry and pseudoscience illustrate the practical stakes of these disagreements. Blackburn also considers what competing accounts of truth imply for tolerance and politics.
