The Railway Painting of Terence Cuneo
One of the few railway artist actually to be commissioned by the railway companys, and particularly by British Rail when steam was still operational, Terence Cuneo's paintings are renowned throughout the world. As well as illustrating his most famous works, the book includes many new and unseen paintings. Both the paintings and the text, laced with fascinating sketches and anecdotes, reflects this great British artist's genius and real love of railways. Indeed, his enthusiasm has produced paintings of railways as diverse as the small trains of Kashmir and the giants of America and Canada, at the same time remaining true to his first love, the great railways of Britain.

The Normative Web
Antirealist views about morality claim that moral facts or truths do not exist. Do these views imply that other types of normative facts, such as epistemic ones, do not exist? The Normative Web develops a positive answer to this question. Terence Cuneo argues that the similarities between moral and epistemic facts provide excellent reason to believe that, if moral facts do not exist, then epistemic facts do not exist. But epistemic facts, it is argued, do exist: to deny their existence would commit us to an extreme version of epistemological skepticism. Therefore, Cuneo concludes, moral facts exist. And if moral facts exist, then moral realism is true. In so arguing, Cuneo provides not simply a defense of moral realism, but a positive argument for it. Moreover, this argument engages with a wide range of antirealist positions in epistemology such as error theories, expressivist views, and reductionist views of epistemic reasons. If the central argument of The Normative Web is correct, antirealist positions of these varieties come at a very high cost. Given their cost, Cuneo contends, we should find realism about both epistemic and moral facts highly attractive.

Speech and Morality
Terence Cuneo presents a new argument for moral realism. According to the normative theory of speech, speech acts are generated by an agent's altering her normative position with regard to her audience. In doing so she takes on rights and responsibilities, some of which are moral and objective: these are a necessary condition of speech.
