Truth and Truthfulness
Book • 2002
In *Truth and Truthfulness*, Bernard Williams explores the concept of truth and its importance in human society.
He argues that truth is essential for successful human interaction and identifies two key virtues of truthfulness: Accuracy, which involves seeking reliable information, and Sincerity, which involves expressing genuine beliefs.
Williams uses a genealogical approach to trace the evolution of these virtues, drawing on historical figures and philosophical traditions.
