Is Metaphysics Descriptive or Normative? University of California Publications in Philosophy, V7 - Jacob Loewenberg - Bog

""Is Metaphysics Descriptive or Normative?"" is a philosophical book written by Jacob Loewenberg and published by the University of California. The book explores the nature of metaphysics, which is the branch of philosophy concerned with the nature of reality and existence. Loewenberg examines the two main approaches to metaphysics: descriptive and normative. Descriptive metaphysics seeks to describe the nature of reality as it is, while normative metaphysics seeks to prescribe what reality ought to be. Loewenberg argues that both approaches are important and necessary for a complete understanding of metaphysics. He also discusses the relationship between metaphysics and other branches of philosophy, such as epistemology and ethics. The book is part of the University of California Publications in Philosophy series, which publishes works by leading philosophers and scholars. It is aimed at students and scholars of philosophy, as well as anyone interested in the nature of reality and existence. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for readers with a range of backgrounds and levels of knowledge in philosophy.Additional Editor Is Stephen C. Pepper.
