Alan Montefiore Livres

Exploring the intersection of philosophy and personal identity, this collection features essays by Alan Montefiore, half of which are previously unpublished. The author delves into how philosophical inquiries into reason, truth, and identity shape our understanding of ethics and politics, offering insights that illuminate the complexities of self-formation. Through rigorous analysis, Montefiore invites readers to reflect on the fundamental questions that influence both individual and collective moral frameworks.

Originally published in 1958, this book shows how a systematic consideration of what exactly may be meant by calling anything 'good', inevitably leads on to the more general and fundamental problem of the relations between value- judgments and statements of fact.
