Terence Cuneo presents a new argument for moral realism. According to the normative theory of speech, speech acts are generated by an agent's altering her normative position with regard to her audience. In doing so she takes on rights and responsibilities, some of which are moral and objective: these are a necessary condition of speech.

Recensioner i media

John Eriksson, Ethic [T]he emphasis on the normative dimensions of speech and its consequences for metaethics are highly interesting and deserve closer investigation. Cuneo's book is a fine start.

James Edwin Mahon, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews this is a superb book, original and highly rigorous, and one that rewards repeated reading.

Australasian Journal of Philosophy Positive arguments in favor of moral realism are not wildly abundant. Cuneo has provided us with one that is bold, highly original, clearly argued, broad in its sweep and rich in detail. His book is compulsory reading for anyone interested in the nature of moral truth.
