Beyond Objectivism and Relativism. Richard J. Bernstein

Drawing freely and expertly from Continental and analytic traditions, Richard Bernstein examines a number of debates and controversies exemplified in the works of Gadamer, Habermas, Rorty, and Arendt. He argues that a «new conversation» is emerging about human rationality—a new understanding that emphasizes its practical character and has important ramifications both for thought and action.
