Recenzii
This volume provides an engaging discussion of the distinction between relational and nonrelational goods, that is, being good for a subject rather than being good simpliciter.
Ronnow-Rasmussen's Value Gap is a sustained argument for Dualism, the idea that there are two coherent value notions-final goodness, final goodness for-that cannot be understood in terms of each other. Along the way, Ronnow-Rasmussen touches on many of the central issues of contemporary value theory. The book is full of ideas, arguments, and distinctions, and rewards careful study. It is lively and interesting, and recommended to those working in these fields.
The book has many virtues. It is full of interesting puzzles and arguments about the distinction between good and good-for, as well as about the fitting attitude account of value, and will be of interest to anyone working on either topic. The book effectively continues his previous book, Personal Value (2011), and like that book, has an exploratory style which is endearingly humble, and which enables Rønnow-Rasmussen to explore the issues in a fair-minded way.
