What is truth? What value should we see in or attribute to it? The war over the meaning and utility of truth is at the center of contemporary philosophical debate, and its arguments have rocked the foundations of philosophical practice. In this book, the American pragmatist Richard Rorty and the French analytic philosopher Pascal Engel present their radically different perspectives on truth and its correspondence to reality. Rorty doubts that the notion of truth can be of any practical use and points to the preconceptions that lie behind truth in both the intellectual and social spheres. Engel prefers a realist conception, defending the relevance and value of truth as a norm of belief and inquiry in both science and the public domain. Rorty finds more danger in using the notion of truth than in getting rid of it. Engel thinks it is important to hold on to the idea that truth is an accurate representation of reality. In Rorty's view, epistemology is an artificial construct meant to restore a function to philosophy usurped by the success of empirical science. Epistemology and ontology are false problems, and with their demise goes the Cartesian dualism of subject and object and the ancient problematic of appearance and reality. Conventional "philosophical problems," Rorty asserts, are just symptoms of the professionalism that has disfigured the discipline since the time of Kant. Engel, however, is by no means as complacent as Rorty in heralding the "end of truth," and he wages a fierce campaign against the "veriphobes" who deny its value. What's the Use of Truth? is a rare opportunity to experience each side of this impassioned debate clearly and concisely. It is a subject that has profound implications not only for philosophical inquiry but also for the future study of all aspects of our culture.Binding Type: Paperback

A relief!
Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
I've been using the Blink Better Eye Scrubs daily for about a week now, and they've been fantastic. My eyes tend to be pretty sensitive, but these wipes haven't caused any irritation or discomfort at all, which is a huge plus. Even though "tea tree oil" is mentioned, I didn't notice any scent, which I actually prefer.
The wipes themselves are perfectly moist and feel great on the skin. I really appreciate that one side is softer and the other is a bit firmer, so you can choose what you need. The individual packets are also super easy to open, which makes them really convenient for daily use or when I'm on the go.
They do a terrific job of cleaning my eyelids and lashes, and I've even noticed my eyes watering less since I started using them. I think they offer good value for the quality, and I'd absolutely recommend them, especially if you have sensitive eyes. They're definitely worth buying.

Blink Eye Wipes are the Best
Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
My eye doctor recommended a different brand (which I have used) and find these to be just as effective and at a better price. They are very soothing to the eye and a nice treat at the end of the day. They are very soft, with a light & refreshing fragrance.

Good, could be a little better
Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1), Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
Thick, generously sized and very durable. With my allergies it's helpful that after thoroughly cleaning around my eye area I can use this to wipe my face and neck, too. I like that each side has a different texture,one for gentle exfoliating, the other for smooth wiping - both sides are soft. There's no real smell to speak of.
The individually wrapped packets also make it very easy to toss these in my backpack, purse, car, luggage.
They could be a little more moist and mintier though. I was hoping for a residual freshness feeling that's only slightly there. Hopefully the company will make some minor tweaks. I'll continue to buy these however, they're a pretty unique product, provide sufficient on-the-spot relief and are a good value.

Covers all my passes
Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
I've used several brands of eye wipes and I think I'll stop looking any further after using these.
The wipes are super moist and the largest I've come by.
They are soft thick wipes which I appreciate especially after say cutting grass or any outdoor activities that might attract pollen or dust to my lids. I've used some that are very thin and felt harsh.
My skin feels clean yet moisturized after using them.
I'm totally happy that my lids are not burning and itchy anymore.
