Summary:Is the way to moral truth through theory? Or do we already know what?s right and wrong? Throughout modern history philosophers have tried to construct elaborate moral systems to determine what?s right. Recently, however, some have revived the position that we have intuitive knowledge of right and wrong. In this book, David Kaspar introduces and explores the perspective known as?Intuitionism?.
