Author Description

In *REASON and LIBERTY*, Shayne Wissler delves into the central core of reason and political philosophy, identifying five pillars of civilized society: Man's relation to the Universe; the rational nature of The Good; the nature of Ideas; the science and moral objectivity of Natural Rights; and the fundamentals of institutional integrity. In addition to rejuvenating natural rights theory by putting it squarely on a rational-empirical foundation, Wissler provides his own solutions for several important philosophical problems, including the problem of induction and the is-ought problem.
