Definition / description
The realist response developed in this volume (particularly Chapters 1, 3, 4, 6, and 7) is this: we can and should understand the existence of multiple perspectives not as a hindrance to our ability to grasp that reality as it is, but as a means by which[BS18] we can obtain a deeper understanding of it. For, from the fact that there are multiple perspectives on reality alone, it does not follow that none – or only one – of these perspectives is veridical, i.e., represents some aspect of reality as it truly is.
