Taking inspiration from the later Wittgenstein, On Moral Certainty, Justification and Practice explores the practical basis of human morality. It offers an account of moral certainty, which it links with a view of moral competence. Drawing on everyday examples, it is shown how morality is grounded in action, not in reasoning.

Julia Hermann is a researcher at Utrecht University in the Netherlands. Her current project concerns the meta-ethical implications of evolutionary explanations of morality. She has previously been a lecturer in social philosophy at Maastricht University. Hermann has published on Wittgenstein, Ryle, moral learning and moral normativity.
