I read Blackburn’s book Think about 3 years ago, and enjoyed his style. This was much denser, more technical, mostly concerned with theories of knowing reality, and evidence for locating truth in the world, and in the mind. I came away with an impression of a long journal article for a philosophy publication, and I am still not sure I understood the author’s position. Does he find truth to be relative to the individual, or an absolute? aucune critique | ajouter une critique

A distinguished philosopher illuminates the age-old war over truth between one side that believes in plain, unvarnished facts and the other side that believes that judgment is clouded with false notions of absolute truth, in an exploration of the long-standing philosophical battle.

Why I picked this book up: I was in one of the Powell’s Books in Portland while in Oregon for a conference. First of all I LOVED Powell’s. It was SO fun being in a huge bookstore then I found this book and went back to the Hotel and got wrapped up in it.
General Thoughts: This book was great. It reminded me of a philosophy class as it walked through the thought process and its development, giving both sides its due and talking about where the arguments failed and succeeded.
Why I finished this book: I finished this book because it was really fun to me. He does a very good job because he makes it so easy to grasp. He really is on his game and I’d love to read another of his books.
Rating: I’d give it a 4.5 out of 5 star rating. ( )
