The Last Word
Thomas Nagel
This philosophical book by a highly regarded author tackles the issue of subjectivism and relativism in reasoning. The author argues that reason must be universal and based on objective principles. He refutes claims that relativism and subjectivism are harmless intellectual fads, showing how these beliefs can deflect arguments and make public discourse unproductive. Through systematic rebuttals in language, logic, science, and ethics, the author sets a new standard in this important debate. A must-read for anyone interested in the philosophy of reasoning.

Nagle is a very fine writer, a very clear. Just as a style of communication, I think he’s worth going to school on. I would recommend you read his little book, “The Last Word,” which champions rationality in a very compelling way. – источник
