Does Anything Really Matter?: Essays on Parfit on Objectivity
ISBN: 9780199653836 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In the first two volumes of 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 thus challenges a view of the role of reason in action that can be traced back to David Hume, and is widely assumed to be correct, not only by philosophers but also by economists. In defending his view, Parfit argues that if there are no objective normative truths, nihilism follows, and nothing matters. He criticizes, often forcefully, many leading contemporary philosophers working on the...

Introduction to Syndemics: A Critical Systems Approach to Public and Community Health
ISBN: 9780470472033 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.
