Is objectivity possible?: Can introspection help?

Australian Humanist, The 120:17 (2016)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

Anders, Rudi Mathematics is objective and unambiguous, but as soon as mathematics is applied to anything in the human world, human values complicate the issues. Two apples for two people equals one apple for each person, but compassion for a starving person, or other human values, can alter the outcome.
