Synopsis
Having outlined a theory of bullshit and falsehood, Frankfurt turns to what lies beyond them: the truth, a concept not as obvious as some might expect. (Philosophy), Having outlined a theory of bullshit and falsehood, Harry G. Frankfurt turns to what lies beyond them: the truth, a concept not as obvious as some might expect. Our culture's devotion to bullshit may seem much stronger than our apparently halfhearted attachment to truth. Some people (professional thinkers) won't even acknowledge " true" and " false" as meaningful categories, and even those who claim to love truth cause the rest of us to wonder whether they, too, aren't simply full of it. Practically speaking, many of us deploy the truth only when absolutely necessary, often finding alternatives to be more saleable, and yet somehow civilization seems to be muddling along. But where are we headed? Is our fast and easy way with the facts actually crippling us? Or is it " all good" ? Really, what's the use of truth, anyway? With the same leavening wit and commonsense wisdom that animates his pathbreaking work "On Bullshit," Frankfurt encourages us to take another look at the truth: there may be something there that is perhaps too plain to notice but for which we have a mostly unacknowledged yet deep-seated passion. His book will have sentient beings across America asking, " The truth-- why didn't I think of that?", Having outlined a theory of bullshit and falsehood, Harry G.

- o***a (190)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaInitially, I was excited to purchase this item from the seller. The pictures looked great and the price was good. When I received the item one of the cards in the lot - the most valuable - was damaged. You couldn't see the damage in the pictures and the seller said they didn't see the damage when packaging. I opened a return and the seller wasn't happy but accepted. The next day, I woke to a message that implied I wouldn't return everything. Canceled return because didn't want retaliation.
