## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Uncommon sense
  

*by F***R on Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2018*

If you are interested in the question of what and how we know, you will find in Simon Blackburn's treatise a good and thoughtful discussion. It is written to be learned from, to paraphrase Goethe, not to simply demonstrate what the author knows.  It reviews different approaches to the question, the strengths and weaknesses of each, and speaks to those of us in the real world, who both in their professional and personal lives, deal with a series of unknowns, some of which involve  discoverable truths of varying degrees of complexity, some of which are not worth the effort, and some of which cannot or perhaps never, be resolved.  The book presents concepts that are readily assimilated, and their validation, corroboration, and verification are left to the reader.  Open ended, informative, and practical it a good companion to his previous work (and that of Harry Frankfurt) and well worth the read.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Good Exploration of the Philosophical Notion of Truth
  

*by T***H on Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2020*

Blackburn effectively lays out the Basic Arguments for Truth: Correspondence, Coherence, Pragmatism and Deflationism but then, interestingly he discusses how these arguments apply or don’t apply to important areas like Art, Ethics, Reason and Religion, areas where he instructs us that in the words of C.S. Peirce we stand on a slippery bog, but it’s all we’ve got. Darn!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    This is a very good primer on the concept of truth in analytic philosophy
  

*by M***A on Reviewed in the United States on April 27, 2017*

This is a very good primer on the concept of truth in analytic philosophy. I had to read it in college for an upper-level logic course, and I still remember this edition well. Well-selected and well-arranged, these readings form a rich conversation about key theories of truth in contemporary philosophy. Each of the selections benefits from being put in this context.
