| Abstract
|
:
|
We daily classify actions by their morality, & beliefs by their rationality. But in light of persistent skepticism about morality, free will, & epistemology, we must ask what justifies us in making these claims. This book defends a sophisticated version of pragmatism, resting on an account of strategy-based cooperative rationality.
