Overview
Relativism lies at the very heart of philosophy since there can be little point to debates in other philosophical areas if the issues surrounding relativism are not resolved. This book offers a systematic discussion of a variety of different relativist positions that are often grouped together under a single label.
Paul O'Grady clearly distinguishes five main kinds: relativism about truth, relativism about logic, ontological relativism, epistemological relativism, and, finally, relativism about rationality. In each case he shows what makes a position relativist and how it differs from a sceptical or pluralist position. He ends by presenting a thoroughly integrated position that rejects some forms while defending others. The book includes discussion of recent work by Putnam, Devitt, Searle, Priest, and Quine and offers a succinct survey of contemporary debates. This lively discussion of the issue will be welcome reading for all those involved in philosophical inquiry.
