Does Anything Really Matter?: Essays on Parfit on Objectivity
Peter Singer (ed.)
New York, NY: Oxford University Press (2017)
Abstract
In On What Matters Derek Parfit argues that there are objective moral truths, and other normative truths about what we have reasons to believe, and to want, and to do. He further argues that if he is wrong, nihilism follows, and nothing matters. In Does Anything Really Matter? leading philosophers present a fascinating set of responses to Parfit.Author's Profile
