Spheres of Reason comprises nine original essays on the philosophy
of normativity, written by a combination of internationally
renowned and up-and-coming philosophers working at the forefront of
the topic. On one broad construal the normative sphere concerns
norms, requirements, oughts, reasons, reasoning, rationality,
justification, value. These notions play a central role in both
everyday thought and philosophical enquiry; but there remains
considerable disagreement about how to understand normativity --
its nature, metaphysical and epistemological bases -- and how
different aspects of normative thought connect to one another. As
well as exploring traditional and ongoing issues central to our
understanding of normativity -- especially those concerning
reasons, reasoning and rationality -- the volume's essays develop
new approaches to and perspectives in the field. Notably, they make
a timely and distinctive contribution to normativity as it features
across each of the practical, epistemic and affective regions of
thought, including the important issue of how normativity as it
applies to action, belief and feeling may (or may not) be
connected. In doing so, the essays engage topics within the
philosophy of mind and action, epistemology, normative ethics and
metaethics. With an editor's introduction providing a comprehensive
and accessible background to the subject, Spheres of Reason is
essential reading to anyone interested in the nature of normativity
and the bearing it has on human thought.
