Strife of Systems, The: An Essay on the Grounds and Implications of Philosophical Diversity 1st edition
Nicholas Rescher
Rescher develops a theory that accounts for philosophical disagreement and shows how conflicts root in divergent 'cognitive values'-values regarding matters such as importance, centrality, and priority. He argues that given the nature of the enterprise, consensus is not a realistic goal, and failure to achieve it is not a defect.
