About the book >.>.> On What Matters: Volume One Book by Derek ParfitDerek Parfit?s *On What Matters: Volume One* examines fundamental questions in practical philosophy, including reasons, rationality and morality. Its six parts are arranged across two volumes. Part One develops an extended discussion of reasons and rationality, providing background for Parfit?s arguments about morality in Parts Two and Three. Those central chapters grow out of three Tanner Lectures delivered at the University of California, Berkeley, in November 2002. They address moral questions and seek to reconsider the relationship between consequentialist views, which make an act?s rightness depend solely on its overall consequences, and Kantian arguments. Part Four contains revised responses to the Berkeley lectures by Thomas Scanlon, Susan Wolf and Allen Wood, alongside a contribution from Barbara Herman, who did not take part in the Berkeley events. Part Six turns to meta-normative questions raised by the use of normative language in claims about reasons and morality. (MP). Seller Inventory # Batch-FM796-VG-15678
