Undoubtedly.
(I've been rereading the entire Discworld series in order. I am shocked to realise what a startlingly intelligent and clueful man Terry Pratchett is, and his rationalist heroes are pretty amazing too: yer Granny Weatherwax and Havelock Vetinari. Even Vimes, as he slowly, painfully learns to think. Pratchett doesn't give much of how they do what they do to make them required reading, but noting that they are in fact rationalist heroes is IMO useful.)
