This book features new research on incommensurability from philosophers who have shaped the field into what it is today, including John Broome, Ruth Chang and Wlodek Rabinowicz.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book covers four aspects relating to incommensurability. In the first part, the contributors synthesize research on the competing views of how to best explain incommensurability. Part II illustrates how incommensurability can help us deal with seemingly insurmountable problems in ethical theory and population ethics. The contributors address the Repugnant Conclusion, the Mere Addition Paradox and so-called Spectrum Arguments. The chapters in Part III outline and summarize problems caused by incommensurability for decision theory. Finally, Part IV tackles topics related to risk, uncertainty and incommensurability.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eValue Incommensurability: Ethics, Risk, and Decision-Making\u003c\/i\u003e will be of interest to researchers and advanced students working in ethical theory, decision theory, action theory, and philosophy of economics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Henrik Andersson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367702185\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367702182\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/14\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 270\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.69d","brand":"Henrik Andersson","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44056021663999,"sku":"9780367702182","price":170.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4f098a59-4424-4bd8-9e58-0cdf1eca0ea4.jpg?v=1685039084","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/value-incommensurability-henrik-andersson-9780367702182","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
