Thomas Nagel

Opis

Over the past twenty-five years, Thomas Nagel has played a major role in the philosophico-biological debate on subjectivity and consciousness. This extensive collection of published essays and reviews offers Nagel's opinionated views on the philosophy of mind, epistemology, and political philosophy, as well as on fellow philosophers like Freud, Wittgenstein, Rawls, Dennet, Chomsky, Searle, Nozick, Dworkin, and MacIntyre.

Recenzje

Nagel is a tough-minded thinker; generous in praise of what he regards as first-rate philosophy but forthright in criticism of what he views as evasive, pretentious or self-serving. His critical judgements show a powerful mind at work ... He is also a creative thinker ... Nagel's is a mind to be taken seriously.
