{"product_id":"the-logic-of-relativism-mark-ressler-9781940551203","title":"The Logic of Relativism","description":"This in-depth study aims to develop a rigorous analysis of the nature and the logic of relativism in general as a basis for evaluating the charge of self-refutation against relativism. It develops a general definition of relativism that distinguishes relativism from structurally similar notions such as conventionalism and contextualism. On the basis of this definition, it formulates a series of logical systems that each might be presented as candidates for the logic of relativism. Each system is evaluated to see whether it can sustain the charge of self-refutation. The result is that one of these systems can be proven not to be self-refuting, even under increasingly stronger challenges. Consequently, this study argues that even global relativism can be demonstrated not to refute itself, despite the long history of arguments to the contrary.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mark Ressler\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 194055120X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781940551203\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Increasingly Skeptical Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/03\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 292\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.66d","brand":"Mark Ressler","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48445923164415,"sku":"9781940551203","price":25.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9fadca9c-0727-463d-a8bb-1785fdccbf0b.jpg?v=1777221523","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-logic-of-relativism-mark-ressler-9781940551203","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
