Philosophy and the Vision of Language (Routledge Studies in Twentieth Century Philosophy)

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Philosophy and the Vision of Language explores the history and enduring significance of the twentieth-century turn to language as a specific object of investigation and resource for philosophical reflection. It traces the implications of the access to language in some of the most prominent projects and results of the historical and contemporary tradition of analytic philosophy, including the projects of Frege, Wittgenstein, Sellars, Quine, Brandom, and Cavell. Additionally, it demonstrates the deep and enduring connections between the analytic tradition`s inquiry into language and the parallel inquiries of phenomenology, critical theory, and deconstruction over the course of the twentieth century. Finally, it documents some of the enduring consequences of philosophy`s inquiry into language for contemporary questions of social and political life. The book provides a clear, accessible and widely inclusive introduction to the relevance of language for analytic and continental philosophy… [detailed...]

Philosophy as Fiction: Self, Deception, and Knowledge in Proust

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Philosophy as Fiction reconstructs Proust`s powerful, coherent and original outlook on knowledge, self-deception and self-fashioning. In addition, it explains why these ideas had to give rise to a work of art and not a philosophical treatise. Parts of the philosophy serve literary ends, with certain assertions forming part of the novel`s intricate lace-work, and aspects of the aesthetics also serve philosophical ends, enabling a reader to engage in an active manner with an alternative art of living.

Sergei Bulgakov, Catherine Evtuhov, Sergei Bulgakov
Philosophy of Economy

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Sergei Bulgakov (1871-1944) was a major philosopher of the Russian Silver Age, but his work was almost entirely repressed under the Soviet rgime. In the wake of the collapse of the Soviet Union, Bulgakov - along with a number of other philosophers of theperiod, including Soloviev (whose work we are publishing concurrently) - has been resuscitated in an effort to rehabilitate a tradition of Russian liberal thought that will guide the country towards a post-Communist future. As Evtuhov points out in her extremely thorough and lucid introduction to this translation of his major work, Bulgakov`s philosophy is particularly fruitful insofar as it combines strands of Western liberal thought with Russian and Byzantine sources and ideas. Unlike Western liberalism, with its relentless focus on individual rights, Bulgakov stresses `human dignity,` a concept in which the individual and the collectivity are seen as mutually supportive. In this, Bulgakov`s work should be of interest not only to… [detailed...]

Philosophy of Law: Very Short Introduction

2006 y.
Publisher: Oxford University Press
Description: Law lies at the very heart of our social and political life, shaping our culture and reflecting our values. It underlies countless controversial questions - from gay marriage and abortion, to the environment, the protection of human rights, and when nations may go to war. Indeed no society can properly be understood or explained without a coherent conception of its law. But what is law? What is its role in society, and how does it relate to our rights? This `Very Short Introduction` examines the central problems that have long absorbed lawyers and philosophers - and anyone who has ever wondered about law`s relation to justice, morality, and democracy.

Philosophy of Physics (Handbook of the Philosophy of Science) 2 volume set

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The ambition of this volume is twofold: to provide a comprehensive overview of the field and to serve as an indispensable reference work for anyone who wants to work in it. For example, any philosopher who hopes to make a contribution to the topic of the classical-quantum correspondence will have to begin by consulting Klaas Landsmans chapter. The organization of this volume, as well as the choice of topics, is based on the conviction that the important problems in the philosophy of physics arise from studying the foundations of the fundamental theories of physics. It follows that there is no sharp line to be drawn between philosophy of physics and physics itself. Some of the best work in the philosophy of physics is being done by physicists, as witnessed by the fact that several of the contributors to the volume are theoretical physicists: viz., Ellis, Emch, Harvey, Landsman, Rovelli, t Hooft, the last of whom is a Nobel laureate.

Philosophy of Science and the Occult

1990 y.
Publisher: State University of New York Press
Description: This book both introduces the philosophy of science through examination of the occult and examines the occult rigorously enough to raise central issues in the philosophy of science. Placed in the context of the occult, philosophy of science issues become immediately understandable and forcefully compelling. Divergent views on astrology, parapsychology, and quantum mechanics mysticism emphasize topics standard to the philosophy of science. Such issues as confirmation and selection for testing, causality and time, explanation and the nature of scientific laws, the status of theoretical entities, the problem of demarcation, theory and observation, and science and values are discussed. Significantly revised, this second edition presents an entirely new section of quantum mechanics and mysticism including instructions from N. David Mermin for constructing a device which dramatically illustrates the genuinely puzzling phenomena of quantum mechanics. A more complete and current… [detailed...]

Philosophy, Psychoanalysis and the A-rational Mind (International Perspectives in Philosophy and Psychiatry)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Psychoanalytic theories have come in out of favour in the past hundred years. As a central theory behind recent empirically validated treatments such as mentalisation based therapy, there is a newfound interest in considering just what psychoanalysis can offer us in psychiatry and philosophy of mind. Philosophy, Psychoanalysis, and the A-Rational Mind is an interdisciplinary book with two aims. Firstly, to sharpen psychoanalytic concepts using philosophical tools and make psychoanalytic theory more viable to the academic community. Secondly, it looks to expand philosophy of mind so as to consider serious accounts of the unconscious and non-rational mental material predominant and ever-present in psychoanalytic data. The book explores some basic psychological phenomena- beliefs, desires, phantasies, wishes, and drives- examining a range of fascinating cases, and explaining their significance for both philosophers and psychoanalysts. The book revisits some of Freud`s less famous cases… [detailed...]

Phishing: Cutting the Identity Theft Line

Publisher: —
Description: `Phishing` is the hot new identity theft scam. An unsuspecting victim receives an e-mail that seems to come from a bank or other financial institution, and it contains a link to a Web site where s/he is asked to provide account details. The site looks legitimate, and 3 to 5 percent of people who receive the e-mail go on to surrender their information-to crooks. One e-mail monitoring organization reported 2.3 billion phishing messages in February 2004 alone. If that weren`t enough, the crooks have expanded their operations to include malicious code that steals identity information without the computer user`s knowledge. Thousands of computers are compromised each day, and phishing code is increasingly becoming part of the standard exploits. Written by a phishing security expert at a top financial institution, this unique book helps IT professionals respond to phishing incidents. After describing in detail what goes into phishing expeditions, the author provides… [detailed...]

He`s the military`s poster boy for relieving political tensions between Mars Colony and Earth---but he wants nothing to do with it. Brogue is just a man trying to do his job as a tactical analyst and prefers to leave the politics to civilians and government subcommittees. After he manages to save a top Terran official from an extremist plot, however, the only way to avoid the spotlight is to get offplanet. So he pulls some strings and gets shipped to one of the small moons of Mars to help unravel a mystery. Some people at the research station on the Martian moon Phobos have been killed, and it seems like the culprit is a native life form. The first military team sent in quickly discovered just how lethal the Phobos beast could be. Brogue, however, doesn`t focus on the dust clouds and barren rock that compose the beast`s lair but rather turns his attention… [detailed...]

Description: Book DescriptionLife, death, hope, faith, spirituality, love, and the deeper mysteries behind them all, are the best ways to sum up the overall theme for `Phoenix Tales: Stories of Death &, Life.` This collection of literary short stories blends fantasy with splashes of science fiction and horror to tell seventeen dark and unique tales. Each story in some way puts its lead character into situations where life or death choices must be made. Not only are the stories imaginative and compelling page-turners, but also timely tales which address many of the social and moral issues we face today. The collection begins with `Escape Velocity,` where an elderly man finds himself trapped in a robot-run government institution where he`s resurrected repeatedly against his will, while ironically denied the experimental treatments that might cure him. `The Sacrifice` is about an ancient wizard from Atlantis whose fear of death drives him to feed off the life-force of babies, while `An Elysian… [detailed...]
