PHIL 124B — Truth Even Unto Its Innermost Parts? -- The Ethics of Belief

[ hum ]
May not be taken for credit by students who took PHIL 22a in prior years.

Brandeis's motto is 'Truth Even Unto Its Innermost Parts'. But is it rational to always seek truth? What if it's advantageous to believe falsehoods? What ought we to believe, and how can there be any norms about belief at all? Usually offered every second year.
