But Kant does risk telling intentionally deceptive falsehoods. Instead of being a man a few words, Kant is a man of three million words. Equally revealing is…

What’s more, trying to circumvent our hunger via current surgical and pharmaceutical technologies is risky, unpleasant, and often ineffective. I conclude by considering the case for avoiding even “silver bullet” appetite suppressants, for the sake…
