Philosophy of Religion

Yet Philosophy has and does impact the lives of just about every thinking person on the planet. In fact, the very way in which we think is partly the result of the ideas which philosophers have produced over the ages and in all cultures.

Foundations for Moral Relativism

description: In this new edition of Foundations for Moral Relativism, J. David Velleman shows that different communities can indeed be subject to incompatible moralities, because their local mores are rationally binding.

The book thus maps out a universe of many moral worlds without, as Velleman puts it, "moral black holes”.
