Alexander Miller 
Contemporary Metaethics [EPUB ebook] 
An Introduction

Apoio

This new edition of Alexander Miller’s highly readable
introduction to contemporary metaethics provides a critical
overview of the main arguments and themes in twentieth- and
twenty-first-century contemporary metaethics. Miller traces the
development of contemporary debates in metaethics from their
beginnings in the work of G. E. Moore up to the most recent
arguments between naturalism and non-naturalism, cognitivism and
non-cognitivism.
From Moore’s attack on ethical naturalism, A. J. Ayer’s
emotivism and Simon Blackburn’s quasi-realism to anti-realist
and best opinion accounts of moral truth and the non-reductionist
naturalism of the ‘Cornell realists’, this book
addresses all the key theories and ideas in this field. As well as
revisiting the whole terrain with revised and updated guides to
further reading, Miller also introduces major new sections on the
revolutionary fictionalism of Richard Joyce and the hermeneutic
fictionalism of Mark Kalderon.
The new edition will continue to be essential reading for students,
teachers and professional philosophers with an interest in
contemporary metaethics.
