Ethics & moral philosophy

Hardback. In On What Matters Derek Parfit argues that there are objective moral truths, and other normative truths about what we have reasons to believe, and to want, and to do. He further argues that if he is wrong, nihilism follows, and nothing matters. In Does Anything Really Matter? leading philosophers present a fascinating set of responses to Parfit. Editor(s): Singer, Peter. Num Pages: 288 pages. BIC Classification: HPC; HPQ. Dimension: 234 x 156. .
