Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Factual relativism (Epistemic relativism) is a mode of reasoning which extends relativism and subjectivism to factual matter and reason. In factual relativism the facts used to establish the truth or falsehood of any statement are understood to be relative to the perspective of those proving or falsifying the proposition. This view is criticized by many analytic philosophers and scientists. Alan Sokal and Jean Bricmont, in their book Fashionable Nonsense, say that "if we adopt the customary [...] notion of truth, then cognitive relativism is patently false: since a proposition is true to the extent that it reflects [some aspects of] the way the world is, its truth and falsity depends on the way the world is and not on the belief or other characteristics of any individual group."
