A Treatise of Equivocation

Meer over het boek

This seminal work by David Jardine explores the ethics of equivocation, or the use of ambiguous language to deceive. Drawing on historical examples and philosophical analysis, Jardine argues that equivocation is sometimes necessary in order to protect oneself or others from harm, but that it should be used sparingly and with great care. A Treatise of Equivocation is a thought-provoking examination of the complex nature of truth and deception.
