Thus, Blackburn's theory of quasi-realism provides a coherent account of ethical pluralism. Attempts have been made to derive from it a comprehensive theory of ethics, such as Iain King's quasi-utilitarianism in his book How to Make Good Decisions and Be Right All the Time (2008).[4] Blackburn buttresses these arguments by further examples of quasi-realism in our understanding of the world beyond ethics.[6] Quasi-realism captures in some important ways the structure of our ethical experience of the world and why we can assert claims such as "It is wrong to be cruel to children" as if they were facts even though they do not share the properties of facts; namely the inference of independent truth-values.	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-879.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-879.txt
