One might think that the central question of John D Caputo’s book: Truth – would be “what is truth?” however, Caputo announces that this question has no answer, for “there is no such thing. Instead there are truths—many of them, in the plural and lower case.” Caputo sets himself the task of trying to defend this claim while, on one hand, avoiding the absolutism of “One Big Truth” and on the other hand, “not ending us all up in the Relativist ditch of ‘anything goes.’”
The next meeting of the Philosophy Club is on Tuesday 17th October starting at 7.30pm – the location is: 34 Waldeck Road, Carrington, Nottingham NG5 2AF
