Defending Moral Precaution as a Solution to the Problem of Other Minds: A Reply to Holm and Coggon

Pattinson, Shaun D.; Beyleveld, Deryck

Abstract

This article responds to Holm & Coggon (2009) 22 Ratio Juris 295–309, which criticises a thesis advanced and defended in earlier (joint and sole authored) work . This ‘precautionary thesis’ is re-expressed and developed to show that Holm & Coggon’s critique fails to fully address the arguments being critiqued.
