Norms and Necessity
Thomasson, Amie L. (Daniel P. Stone Professor of Intellectual and Moral Philosophy, Daniel P. Stone Professor of Intellectual and Moral Philosophy, Dartmouth College)
Philosophical theories often hinge on claims about what is necessary or possible. But what are possibilities and necessities, and how could we come to know about them? This book aims to help demystify the methodology of philosophy, by treating such claims not as attempted descriptions of strange facts or distant 'possible worlds', but rather as ways of expressing rules or norms.
