Beyond Reason

Springer Netherlands, 1991. Linnen band met stofomslag. Pp: 535. Some philosophers think that Paul Feyerabend is a clown, a great many others think that he is one of the most exciting philosophers of science of this century. For me the truth does not lie somewhere in between, for I am decidedly of the second opinion, an opinion that is becoming general around the world as this century comes to an end and history begins to cast its appraising eye upon the intellectual harvest of our era. A good example of this opinion may be found in the admiration for Feyerabend's philosophy of science expressed by Grover Maxwell in his contribution to this volume. Maxwell, recalling his own intellectual transformation, says also that it was Feyerabend who "confirmed my then incipient suspicions that most of the foundations of currently fashionable philosophy and even a great deal of the methodology to which many scientists pay enthusiastic lip service are based on simple mistake- assumptions whose absurdity becomes obvious once attention is directed at them". And lest the reader thinks, as many still do, that however sharp Feyerabend's attacks upon the philosophical establishment may have been, he does not offer a positive philosophy (a complain made by C.A. Hooker and some of the other contributors), Paul Churchland argues otherwise. ISBN: 9780792312727. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.

Juan Antonio Nicolás

Körper, Geist, Monaden

Franz Steiner Verlag, 2020. Paperback. Pp: 265. In den letzten Jahrzehnten hat die Leibniz-Forschung gezeigt, wie wichtig Körperlichkeit ist und Juan Antonio Nicolás untersucht ebendiese Rolle des Körpers und sein Verhältnis zur Rationalität im Leibnizschen Denken. Die Grundbegriffe zum Verständnis der Wechselwirkung zwischen Körper und Vernunft und der daraus resultierenden Metaphysik sind Kraft, Organismus, Individuation, Substanz, Phänomen, Tendenz, Spontanität und Funktionalismus. Mit ihnen kann von biologischem Präformationismus, Körperorganismus oder spontaner körperlicher Tendenz als Kraft zu monadischer Substanz, Individuation von Geistern und funktionalistischer Aufwertung von Phänomenen gesprochen werden. Dies zeigt, dass der Begriff "Körper" ein transversaler Begriff ist, der eine gewisse Einheitlichkeit und Systematisierung von Leibniz' Denken ermöglicht. Dieses Konzept reicht von Biologie und Physik bis hin zu Metaphysik, Politik oder Theodizee. ISBN: 9783515110303. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.

Noam Chomsky 15987, Carlos P. Otero [Ed.]

Critical Assessments [complete set]

Routledge, 1993. Leder band. Complete set in 8 volumes: I (tome I and II): Linguistics II (Tome I and II): Philosophy III (Tome I and II): Anthropology IV (Tome I and II): From artificial intelligence to theology: Chomsky's impact on contemporary thought. The publication in 1957 of Noam Chomsky's Syntactic Structures ushered in the era of what can properly be termed, Modern Linguistics: the science of language. This critical assessment brings together over 100 papers on every area of Chomsky's work revealing how pervasive his influence has been on all aspects of modern thought, from linguistics to philosophy, psychology, computer science, social theory, political analysis and literary theory. Carlos Otero is one of the world's leading interpreters of Chomsky's ideas and provides in this book a uniquely comprehensive assessment of his contribution to modern thought. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.

Carlos G. Noreña

Juan Luis Vives

Martinus Nijhoff, 1970. Linnen band met stofomslag. Pp: 327. Humanism has constantly proclaimed the belief that the only way to improve man's life on earth is to make man himself wiser and better. Unfortunately, the voice of the humanists has always been challenged by the loud and cheap promises of scientists, by the inflammatory tirades of politicians, and by the apocalyptic visions of false prophets. Material greed, nonsensical chauvinism, racial prejudice, and religious antagonism have progressively defiled the inner beauty of man. Today's bankruptcy of man's dignity in the midst of an unparalleled material abundance calls for an urgent revival of humanistic ideals and values. This book was planned from its very start as a modest step in that direction. It is not my intention, however, to attempt, once again, a global interpretation of Humanism in general, or of Renaissance Humanism in particular. I have been dissuaded from such a purpose by the failure of contemporary scholars to agree on such basic issues as whether the Renaissance was a total break with or a continuation of medieval culture, whether it was basically a Christian or a pagan movement, whether it was the effect or the cause of the classical revival. Instead, then, of discussing the significance of sixteenth century humanism, this book concentrates upon the life and the thought of a single humanist. ISBN: 9789024750085.

Facing the Future

Oxford University Press, 2001. Hardback. Pp: 501. Here is an important new theory of human action, a theory that assumes actions are founded on choices made by agents who face an open future. It is a theory that makes indeterminism not only intelligible but illuminating. Tools from philosophy of language and philosophical logic help generate a full-scale account of agents "seeing to it that." The authors then proceed to clarify a variety of action-related topics such as determinism vs. indeterminism, imperatives, promises, strategies, joint agency, "could have done otherwise," deontic constructions, and assertions about a not yet settled future.
