The book explores pragmatic realism within philosophical discourse, emphasizing the historical influence of figures like Galileo and Husserl. It critiques the notion that scientific facts encompass all truths and introduces the concept of 'contextual relativity,' where truth is shaped by conceptual frameworks. The author examines Kantian themes, particularly the autonomy in morality and the significance of moral images that embody ideals of equality and liberty. The final lecture defends moral objectivity, arguing that foundational beliefs in ethics and other domains are rooted in our moral and cultural heritage.
