Philosopher Nicholas Rescher presents an original pragmatic defense of objectivity. He employs reasoned argumentation in making the case for restoring objectivity to a place of prominence in philosophic and social discourse. By tracing it back to the very core of rationality itself, Rescher locates objectivity's reason for being deep in our nature as rational animals.

Nicholas Rescher is a German-American philosopher at the University of Pittsburgh. He is the Co-Chairman of the Center for Philosophy of Science and has formerly served as Chairman of the Philosophy Department.
