Professor of Philosophy at the University of Sheffield.
Yonatan Shemmer was educated at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem
and at Stanford University where he held a fellowship in the

This book will be of great interest to philosophers who advocate or
oppose constructivist views, particularly of the global sort ...
readers unversed in the topic of metaethical constructivism should
come away with a good sense of what is at stake in contemporary
debates, while specialists will find a wide range of fruitful and
challenging ideas with which to engage deeper and explore
further.
