  • Cambridge University Press Alexander Herzen and the Role of the Intellectual Revolutionary

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisAlexander Herzen (1812â70) was the most outstanding figure in the early period of the Russian revolutionary movement. Lenin claimed him as a forerunner of the Bolsheviks, and Soviet scholars have sought to establish his latent sympathy with Marxism. In the west on the other hand, he has been seen as a precursor of Solzhenitsyn, the personification of protest against all forms of oppression. Dr Acton provides a compelling intellectual biography. The focus is on the years between 1847 and 1863. Herzen's ideas are set in the context of those political developments and dramatic private experiences that affected his outlook. His profound faith in human nature and in the inevitable triumph of socialism was undermined not only by the failure of the revolutions of 1848, but even more deeply by personal catastrophe - the discovery of the infidelity of his beautiful wife Natalie. This dual blow, Dr Acton shows, had a decisive impact upon Herzen's approach to Russian problems. It lay at the rootTable of Contents1. Introduction; 2. To the west: 1847; 3. 1848; 4.

  • Cambridge University Press Morality in a Technological World

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThe technological advances of contemporary society have outpaced our moral understanding of the problems that they create. How will we deal with profound ecological changes, human cloning, and eroding cyberprivacy, just to name a few issues? Magnani argues that existing moral constructs often cannot be applied to new technology.Trade ReviewReview of the hardback: '[Morality in a Technological World] is a masterpiece. It is completely innovative. It will change argumentation in several branches of cognitive science forever.' Michael Leyton, Center for Discrete Mathematics and Theoretical Computer Science, Rutgers UniversityReview of the hardback: 'Magnani provides a stimulating exploration of the ethical implications of the medicalization of life, cybernetic globalization and the commodification of our lives through globalization. This book is essential reading for everyone interested in the impacts of social, economic and technological change on ethical and legal theory.' David Gooding, Director, Science Studies Centre, University of Bath, UKReview of the hardback: 'This book integrates several fields of ethics, philosophy of technology, epistemology, and cognitive science, developing a completely new and challenging perspective from which Magnani makes the case for knowledge-centered morality.' Li Ping, Sun Yat-sen UniversityReview of the hardback: 'Magnani clearly articulates the complexity of morality, and the development of a process of treating people as things through which 'we can begin to make peace with inevitable technological advances'. He challenges us to think both cognitively and philosophically about moral and ethical dilemmas, in light of new approaches to technological development. In doing so he awakens important discussions around consciousness, humanity, free will and responsibility, and their interconnectedness; in fact, how do we treat people as things, rather than means? He opens up a space in which we can fruitfully discuss the balance between individual, corporate, national and supra-national needs and expectations, in terms of developing individual self-efficacy and agency. In a period of accelerating technological change, where both individually and collectively we are casting longer data shadows within expanding networks, this is an important and timely discussion.'

  • Cambridge University Press A Metaphysics for Scientific Realism Knowing the Unobservable

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisScientific realism is the view that our best scientific theories give approximately true descriptions of both observable and unobservable aspects of a mind-independent world. Debates between realists and their critics are at the very heart of the philosophy of science. Anjan Chakravartty traces the contemporary evolution of realism by examining the most promising strategies adopted by its proponents in response to the forceful challenges of antirealist sceptics, resulting in a positive proposal for scientific realism today. He examines the core principles of the realist position, and sheds light on topics including the varieties of metaphysical commitment required, and the nature of the conflict between realism and its empiricist rivals. By illuminating the connections between realist interpretations of scientific knowledge and the metaphysical foundations supporting them, his book offers a compelling vision of how realism can provide an internally consistent and coherent account of scTrade Review“The level of ambition is high, and in my opinion Chakravartty achieves what he aims at….Regardless of whether one is ultimately persuaded by the arguments presented in this book, it is a must-buy for anyone who is serious about the realist/anti-realist debate, as well as for anyone interested in the issue of the metaphysics of science.” --Jacob Busch, University of St Andrews, The Philosophical Quarterly“Chakravartty embraces parts of entity realism and structural realism, but this is only the beginning. The justification for his semirealism includes a big dose of metaphysics, namely his accounts of causation and of natural kinds, among other things. Much of the book is given over to very detailed discussion of these issues. In a short review, I cannot hope to do justice to the full richness of Chakravartty’s subtle and highly original treatment of these matters. Let me close with a simple recommendation to any who want to read the last word on scientific realism – this is it.” --James Robert Brown, Department of Philosophy, University of Toronto, History and Philosophy of the Life Sciences“Chakravartty is clear and engaging in his writing, and charitable and judicious in his arguments with other philosophers. His book is essential reading for those interested in scientific realism or the metaphysics of science.” --James Ladyman, University of Bristol, Notre Dame Philosophical ReviewsTable of ContentsPart I.

  • Cambridge University Press The Cambridge Introduction to Emmanuel Levinas

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book provides a clear and helpful overview of the thought of Emmanuel Levinas, one of the most significant and interesting philosophers of the late twentieth century. Michael L. Morgan presents an overall interpretation of Levinas' central principle that human existence is fundamentally ethical and that its ethical character is grounded in our face-to-face relationships. He explores the religious, cultural and political implications of this insight for modern Western culture and how it relates to our conception of selfhood and what it is to be a person, our understanding of the ground of moral values, our experience of time and the meaning of history, and our experience of religious concepts and discourse. Includes an annotated list of recommended readings and a selected bibliography of books by and about Levinas. An excellent introduction to Levinas for readers unfamiliar with his work and even for those without a background in philosophy.Trade Review'The writings of Emmanuel Levinas deserve a place as central to the discipline of moral philosophy. Michael Morgan's riveting study provides a point of access available to all. Crossing the range of Levinas's thought, Morgan provides [a] model of philosophical elaboration: patient, interrogative, and, at every turn, argumentatively suggestive. This book immediately takes its place as the best introduction to Levinas's philosophy available.' J. M. Bernstein, New School for Social Research'Morgan provides a clear and comprehensive introduction by situating Levinas's thought within three contexts: problems about the authority of ethics and normativity faced by other recent philosophers from the Anglo-American as well as the Continental traditions; Levinas's two corpora, consisting of philosophical and Jewish writings; and the atrocities of the twentieth century. The result is as helpful to newcomers as it is illuminating to those who are already familiar with Levinas's challenging philosophy.' Paul Franks, University of Toronto'Situating Levinas's thought within twentieth-century debates on the sources of normativity, The Cambridge Introduction to Emmanuel Levinas argues for the originality of Levinas's position as an account of ordinary life and what it is to live that life meaningfully and morally. Michael Morgan makes Levinas's writings approachable without sacrificing their philosophical complexity or the depth of the ethical experience they attempt to convey. His book sharpens the terms of debate over Levinas's ethics, brings new and important voices into the conversation, and challenges readers to move beyond standard interpretations. More than a simple introduction, this book is a deftly guided tour of the thorniest issues confronting those who seek to understand Levinas and his work. Morgan has brought us a book destined to change how we read Levinas today.' Diane Perpich, Clemson UniversityTable of ContentsIntroduction; 1. Responding to atrocity in the twentieth century; 2. How to read Levinas: normativity and transcendental philosophy; 3. The ethical content of the face-to-face; 4. Philosophy, totality, and the everyday; 5. Subjectivity and the self: passivity and freedom; 6. God, philosophy, and the ground of the ethical; 7. Time, history, and messianism; 8.

  • Cambridge University Press The Limits of Loyalty

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisWe prize loyalty in our friends, lovers and colleagues, but loyalty raises difficult questions. What is the point of loyalty? Should we be loyal to country, just as we are loyal to friends and family? Can the requirements of loyalty conflict with the requirements of morality? In this book, originally published in 2007, Simon Keller explores the varieties of loyalty and their psychological and ethical differences, and concludes that loyalty is an essential but fallible part of human life. He argues that grown children can be obliged to be loyal to their parents, that good friendship can sometimes conflict with moral and epistemic standards, and that patriotism is intimately linked with certain dangers and delusions. He goes on to build an approach to the ethics of loyalty that differs from standard communitarian and universalist accounts. His book will interest a wide range of readers in ethics and political philosophy.Trade ReviewReview of the hardback: 'Loyalty is at once a non-negotiable value and the root of much suffering. Coming to terms with this duality, Simon Keller argues in his timely and important. The Limits of Loyalty, requires that we recognize not one kind of loyalty, but a diversity of loyalties, some of which merit our allegiance, and some not. The result of this compelling reconsideration is a subtle and shrewd work of philosophical moral psychology, which will not only provoke unsettling reflection on the most vexing and indispensable of human relations - lovers, friends, family, and country - but also revivify central debates in philosophical ethics and political theory. It deserves to be widely resonant.' John M. Doris, Washington University, St. LouisReview of the hardback: The Limits of Loyalty is a refreshingly original, cogently argued and lucid work. It is first-rate, important and readable philosophy. David Lyons, Boston UniversityReview of the hardback: 'Simon Keller's The Limits of Loyalty is a bold and careful, dramatic and soundly argued examination of loyalty, its obligations, its psychology and its impact on morality. Keller argues that personal loyalty and political patriotism cannot be considered unqualified virtues. Because their partiality is susceptible to dangerous moral blindness, their exercise needs to be defended and justified by larger and more encompassing moral considerations. This important book raises fundamental questions in moral theory; it addresses them clearly, with a wealth of convincing examples.' Amelie Rorty, Harvard UniversityReview of the hardback: 'Fascinating - a clear-sighted and often surprising philosophical exploration of loyalty in our lives as parents or friends, lovers or patriots. With a calm and dryly humorous eye, Keller weighs up the complexities, both moral and epistemological, of commitments that are too readily taken for granted.' Rae Langton, MITReview of the hardback: 'This smart, stimulating, and challenging book is a welcome addition to the relatively sparse philosophical literature on loyalty. … for those … who believe that loyalty has been unfairly neglected and who accord it a more central moral place, this volume is delightfully provocative. … it represents the best discussion we have of loyalty.' Notre Dame Philosophical ReviewsReview of the hardback: '… Keller provides a rich variety of illustrations … He articulates a well-written argument … The Limits of Loyalty is a well-written, fascinating, thought-provoking and unsettling book that certainly deserves to be read. … [The book] introduces in that great conversation of how and why we are meant to live the good life.'

Robert Cummins, University of Illinois'… a superb insightful analysis of the notion of mental representation in cognitive science. The book presents an original argument for a bold conclusion: partial eliminativism about mental representation in scientific psychology … I would warmly recommend Ramsey's book to anyone working on representation.' Mark Sprevak, The British Journal for the Philosophy of Science'[This] book makes a well-informed, carefully argued and convincing case for its core argument.

It is a contribution that stands solidly on the shoulders of the presently leading Kant scholarship and that integrates itself well into it.'
