He argues that Plato's work expresses this kind of pluralism, and that this pluralism is important in its own right, whether or not we agree about what Plato's standpoint is.The longest tradition of Plato scholarship identifies crucial faults in Plato's theory of Ideas. Barris argues that Plato deliberately displayed those faults, because he wanted to demonstrate that basic kinds of error or illogic have dimensions that are crucial to the establishing of truth. These dimensions legitimate a paradoxical coordination of logically incompatible conceptions of truth. Connecting this idea with emerging currents of Plato scholarship, he emphasizes, in addition to the dialogues' arguments, the importance of their nonargumentative features, including drama, myths, fictions, anecdotes, and humor. These unanalyzed nonargumentative features function rigorously, as a lever with which to examine the enterprise of rational argument itself, without presupposing its standards or illegitimately assimilating any position to the standards of another.Today, communities are torn apart by conflicts within and between a host of different pluralist and absolutist commitments. The possibility developed in this book-a coordination of absolute and relative truth that allows an understanding of some relativist and some absolutist positions as being fully legitimate and as capable of existing in a relation to their opposites-may contribute to perspectives for resolving these conflicts. 606 $aTruth 606 $aCertainty 606 $aPluralism 615 0$aTruth. 615 0$aCertainty. 615 0$aPluralism. 676 $a121 676 $a121 700 $aBarris$b Jeremy$01784480 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910970649003321 996 $aThe crane's walk$94463848 997 $aUNINA 999 $aThis Record contains information from the Harvard Library Bibliographic Dataset, which is provided by the Harvard Library under its Bibliographic Dataset Use Terms and includes data made available by, among others the Library of Congress LEADER 02825nam 2200601 a 450 001 9910959626203321 005 20251116221052.0 010 $a1-61761-033-X 035 $a(CKB)2560000000069708 035 $a(EBL)3020832 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000469914 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11307598 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000469914 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10531711 035 $a(PQKB)11462117 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3020832 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3020832 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10680970 035 $a(OCoLC)923664535 035 $a(BIP)31027722 035 $a(BIP)31027706 035 $a(EXLCZ)992560000000069708 100 $a20100617d2010 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aHepatitis C infection in dialysis /$fMagid A.

The incidence rates of HCV infection are considerably higher in dialysis patients than in the general population and are 3-fold higher in haemodialysis patients than peritoneal dialysis patients. Risk factors for HCV infection in dialysis patients include blood transfusion number, haemodialysis duration, dialysis unit HCV prevalence, prior kidney transplantation, intravenous drug use, male gender and older age. This book reviews the epidemiology of HCV in dialysis and discusses strategies for screening, transmission prevention, treatment and evaluation/management prior to kidney transplantation. 410 0$aNephrology research and clinical developments series. 606 $aHepatitis C 606 $aHemodialysis$xComplications 615 0$aHepatitis C. 615 0$aHemodialysis$xComplications. 676 $a616.3/623 700 $aFahim$b Magid A$01863809 701 $aJohnson$b David W$g(David Wayne),$f1964-$01863810 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910959626203321 996 $aHepatitis C infection in dialysis$94470498 997 $aUNINA
