The Value of Wild Nature
Inquiry: an interdisciplinary journal of philosophy, Vol.26(3), pp.359-361
1983
Abstract
Don Mannison levels three criticisms at the claims I make in 'Faking Nature'. First, he claims that I argue from (1) X is valued to (2) X has value. I do not. Second, he criticizes an argument of Nelson Goodman's to which I allude. While his criticism has point he misrepresents the role I assign to Goodman's argument. Third, he suggests that there is no need for me to count environmental evaluations as evaluations of the moral kind. However, he offers no account of why I should not and ignores an important consideration that requires that I should.
