Reason, Truth and Self : The Postmodern Reconditioned Paperback / softback
by Michael Luntley
Paperback / softback
Description
Michael Luntley provides a lively introduction to the debate over postmodernism.
Sympathisers of the postmodernist critique of absolute knowledge have jetisoned concepts of reason,t ruth and self; this abandonment has fuelled their opponents' case against postmodernism.
This has led them to ignore the very real problems raised by the postmodernists.
Luntley offers a clear and careful exposition of how rational debate survives despite the Enlightenment's failings. Reason, Truth and Self covers many of the key questions of our age: * How rational is science? * Can we really know the truth about ourselves and the world? * What is the nature of the mind? * Can we know the difference between right and wrong?Reason, Truth and Self is ideal for courses in philosophy and the social sciences.
