Popular interest in b******t — and its near relative, truthiness — is at an all-time high, but the subject has a rich philosophical history, with Hobbes, Locke, Hume, and Kant all weighing in on the matter. Here, contemporary philosophers reflect on b******t from epistemological, ethical, metaphysical, historical, and political points of view. Tackling questions including what is b******t, what does it do, is it a passing fad, and can it ever be eliminated, the book is a guide and resource for the many who find b******t worth pondering. |
