Assessment Sensitivity: Relative Truth and its Applications
Oxford: Oxford University Press (2014)
Abstract
John MacFarlane explores how we might make sense of the idea that truth is relative. He provides new, satisfying accounts of parts of our thought and talk that have resisted traditional methods of analysis, including what we mean when we talk about what is tasty, what we know, what will happen, what might be the case, and what we ought to do.Author's Profile
