Perceiving Truth and Value

Interdisciplinary Discussions on Perception as the Foundation of Ethics. Edited by Markus Mühling. In community with David A. Gilland and Yvonne Förster.

The theme of the volume is the question of value-perception. It is discussed from different philosophical, psychiatric, theological, and anthropological perspectives. The thesis that unites all the papers is the recognition that we live in a relational, dynamic world, in which we primarily perceive, and that to dissolve values from facts is fundamentally misleading, both in theory as in life. The contributions are the outcome of an energetic conference in 2016 where the problems at stake were rigorously discussed.
