More about the book
Focusing on value theory, ethics, and practical philosophy, the second volume of the series explores the relationship between rationality and the utility of values in understanding human existence and the world. Nicholas Rescher presents a normative theory of rationality, arguing that rational evaluation is integral to rationality itself. This volume builds on the first, which addressed epistemology and the philosophy of science, while setting the stage for the upcoming third volume, which will examine the nature of philosophical inquiry.
