Moral Beliefs and Moral Theory (Library of Ethics and Applied Philosophy, 10)

Mary Gore Forrester

4.9/5 (24960 ratings)

Description:This book defends moral cognitivism with a new approach. The author maintains that the truth of moral judgments is determined in fundamentally the same way as is the truth of non-moral judgments, i.e. by appeal to truth conditions which are incorporated in beliefs held in common by a wide variety of societies. She argues that if a moral theory can be developed which can account for widely held, well-established moral beliefs, this would provide a set of truth conditions for moral judgments. A theory designed to do this - and through which major moral disagreements can be resolved - is presented here, together with discussions of many actual and possible objections. The book is intended for professional philosophers and advanced students of philosophy.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
