Description
Who's to Say? A Dialogue on Relativism by Norman Melchert explores the nature of truth and goodness in a thought-provoking discussion.
The author examines various arguments, challenging assumptions about relativism and objectivity. Topics include the relationship between individual opinion, culture, and the definition of truth and goodness, as well as the role of pragmatism as an alternative to relativism.
This dialogue is designed for students looking for a clear introduction to the main arguments on relativism, while also providing a model for thinking critically about philosophical issues.
