The Human a Priori

Essays on How We Make Sense in Philosophy, Ethics, and Mathematics

Beschreibung

A.W. Moore presents a series of essays about the ineliminably anthropocentric nature of a priori thought. He suggests that we humans achieve nothing of real significance in philosophy, ethics, or mathematics except from a human point of view, and hence that all three of these pursuits can be said to betoken 'the human a priori'.
