The Practice of Value explores the nature of value and its relation to the social and historical conditions under which human agents live. At the core of the book are the Tanner Lectures delivered at Berkeley in 2001 by Joseph Raz, who has been one of the leading figures in moral and legal philosophy since the 1970s. Raz argues that values depend importantly on social practices, but that we can make sense of this dependence without falling back on cultural relativism. In response, three eminent philosophers, Christine Korsgaard, Robert Pippin, and Bernard Williams, offer their own distinctive reflections on the connections between value and practice. The book begins with an introduction by Jay Wallace, setting the scene for what follows, and ends with a response from Raz to his commentators. The result is a fascinating debate, accessible to readers throughout and beyond philosophy, about the relations between human values and human life.

I picked this up for my research on value in economics and it’s turned out to be an excellent reference. Tanner’s lectures provide a lot of clarity on complex topics, but it’s definitely an academic read, not light reading.

Delivery Took a While
I was excited to get this book, but it took longer than I expected to arrive. The content is solid, but the shipping was a letdown. Still a good read for those into theoretical frameworks.
