Summary:
"Entering into conversation with the work of Anglo-American
philosophers such as Wilfrid Sellars, Robert Brandom, and John
McDowell, and Continental philosophers including Heidegger and
Althusser, 'Yo!' and 'Lo!' offers solutions (or dissolutions) to
long-standing philosophical problems, such as how perception can be
both inferentially fecund and responsive to an empirical world, and
how moral judgment can be both objective and inherently
motivating."--BOOK JACKET.
