The Book of Absolutes: A Critique of Relativism and a Defence of Universals

Current dogma holds that all cultures and moral values are conditional, nothing human is innate, and Einstein proved that the whole universe is "relative." This title refutes the popular belief in cultural relativism by showing that there are hundreds of well-established cross-cultural "human universals."
