This book§offers an account of the different varieties of normativity that exist in the§world, and argues that there is in fact no conflict between the world of§'oughts' and the scientific world view. The authors highlight the apparent§difference between the world of oughts - you ought not to lie, you ought to buy§low and sell high - and the world of facts - described in terms of forces and§particles, chemicals and biological processes. This book argues that normative claims aim to§evaluate, to urge us to do or not do something, and to tell us how a state of§affairs ought to be. On this account, there are no normative facts, and so nothing that§needs any troublesome shoehorning into a scientific account of the world. Nevertheless, normative claims are§constrained by the world, and answerable to reason and argumentation, in a way§that makes them truth-apt and objective. Drawing on the pragmatist tradition of§Wittgenstein and Sellars, this book defends an alternative conception of the§normative, offering an account of the different kinds of 'oughts' we are§subject to.§
