Objectivity, Relativism, and Truth; Inscribed by Richard Rorty
Later printing of these papers by the famed philosopher. Octavo, original wrappers. Presentation copy, inscribed by Richard Rorty on the title page. In near fine condition.
In this volume Rorty offers a Deweyan account of objectivity as intersubjectivity, one that drops claims about universal validity and instead focuses on utility for the purposes of a community. The sense in which the natural sciences are exemplary for inquiry is explicated in terms of the moral virtues of scientific communities rather than in terms of a special scientific method.
