Recenzii
Ferrari's book is an outstanding contribution to several ongoing debates. They include debates on the nature of disagreement, normativity, and, of course, the nature of truth. It is required reading for philosophers working on truth, and its insights on disagreement and normativity are valuable.
This is a timely and important book that integrates and contributes significantly to a range of contemporary philosophical debates including those focused on the nature of truth and its normative role in enquiry, and the controversies concerning the normative significance of peer disagreement about varying subject matters. Focusing on different kinds of value judgement-judgements of personal taste, aesthetic judgements, and ethics-Ferrari defends a monistic, minimalist account of truth, close in spirit to the ideas advocated by deflationists, and argues against pluralistic accounts of truth's nature that the primary motivations for pluralism can be as well accommodated by recognizing a number of distinct dimensions in which, across these varying types of judgement, truth itself is valuable and falsity disvaluable.
Ferrari's book is very clearly written and, besides providing a novel direction on the aforementioned debates, is also well suited to serve as an introduction to them for advanced students and professionals specializing in other areas of philosophy. It deserves to be widely read and influential.
Ferrari's book offers an intelligent and engaging discussion of the many functions of truth in disagreement and the bearing this has on philosophical debate about the nature of truth.
This is a sophisticated, innovative, and comprehensive account of the various normative dimensions of truth. Ferrari's impressive book is sure to play an influential role in debates about truth, normativity, and disagreement.
Ferrari's book tackles some of the largest issues in metaphysics and epistemology. His discussion sits at the intersection of three topics: the epistemic significance of disagreement; the source and nature of epistemology's norms; and the nature of truth itself. I know of few contemporary theorists ambitious enough to take on all of these topics at once. For his part, Ferrari shows himself more than capable of bringing illumination to these issues. His discussion teaches us that we might reach greater understanding of each by connecting these topics to one another. I highly recommend his book to anyone working in these areas.
In this clear and incisive new book, Filipo Ferrari defends an original position about truth according to which truth is minimal, but it plays robustly different normative roles across kinds of inquiry. Ranging across debates in epistemology, philosophy of language, morality, and aesthetics, Ferrari breaks new ground in truth theory--highly recommended for anyone working in these areas.
In this excellent book, Filippo Ferrari offers a systematic and careful investigation of the normative significance of disagreement, the normative functions of truth in enquiry, and the nature of truth. The discussions of each of these issues are rich and insightful on their own. However, the book likewise offers an impressive, compelling story about how the three issues may be connected-articulating, developing, and supporting a distinctively pluralist perspective.Truth and Norms: Normative Alethic Pluralism and Evaluative Disagreements is a highly original piece of work. A must-read for anyone with an interest in disagreement, truth, norms of enquiry, or related topics.
Ferrari offers a terrific account of the epistemic normativity of truth.
Ferrari's book takes on the commendable project of developing a systematic account of truth, normativity, and disagreement, according to which truth plays a variable normative role in relation to different areas of inquiry.Without doubt, Ferrari's work illuminates the strategies available in pursuing this project. His work contributes to the literature on truth, normativity, and disagreement by paving the way for future thinking about these topics.
