Challenges Facing the Appeal to Practical Wisdom in Medicine and Beyond
1Wake Forest University, Winston-Salem, USA.
Abstract:
As work on practical wisdom and medicine accelerates, now is a good time to outline some important challenges that any approach to developing an account of this virtue faces. More specifically, I develop five challenges having to do with the existence and nature of practical wisdom, and whether it connects with objective and general normative truths. The main goal is to provide a guide to the challenges themselves and some of the options available for tackling them, rather than trying to resolve them here.
