Description

What are reasons? What are duties? What are values? This book presents a fresh account of these concepts and the interplay between them.

It defends a modest notion of a reason. It opens space for a notion of a duty that is irreducible to that of a reason. And it proposes that engagement with value can be assessed as good, and that good engagement often involves the development of correct beliefs and fitting emotions.

In this redrawing of the normative map, Rethinking Normativity traces a spectrum of norms, actions, thoughts, and feelings wide enough to meet the world as it is.
