The Metaphysics of Everyday Life: An Essay in Practical Realism
ISBN: 9780521120296 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Lynne Rudder Baker presents and defends a unique account of the material world: the Constitution View. In contrast to leading metaphysical views that take everyday things to be either non-existent or reducible to micro-objects, the Constitution View construes familiar things as irreducible parts of reality. Although they are ultimately constituted by microphysical particles, everyday objects are neither identical to, nor reducible to, the aggregates of microphysical particles that constitute them. The result is genuine ontological diversity: people, bacteria, donkeys, mountains and...

Explaining Attitudes: A Practical Approach to the Mind
ISBN: 9780521421904 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Explaining Attitudes offers a timely and important challenge to the dominant conception of belief found in the work of such philosophers as Dretske and Fodor. According to this dominant view, beliefs, if they exist at all, are constituted by states of the brain. Rudder Baker rejects this view and replaces it with a quite different approach: practical realism. Seen from the perspective of practical realism, any argument that tries to interpret beliefs as either brain states or immaterial souls is a false dichotomy. Practical realism takes beliefs to be states of whole persons, rather like...

Naturalism and the First-Person Perspective
ISBN: 9780199914746 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Science and its philosophical companion, Naturalism, represent reality in wholly nonpersonal terms. How, if at all, can a nonpersonal scheme accommodate the first-person perspective that we all enjoy? In this volume, Lynne Rudder Baker explores that question by considering both reductive and eliminative approaches to the first-person perspective. After finding both approaches wanting, she mounts an original constructive argument to show that a non-Cartesian first-person perspective belongs in the basic inventory of what exists. That is, the world that contains us persons is irreducibly...

Persons and Bodies: A Constitution View
ISBN: 9780521597197 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. What is a human person, and what is the relation between a person and his or her body? In her third book on the philosophy of mind, Lynne Rudder Baker investigates what she terms the person/body problem and offers a detailed account of the relation between human persons and their bodies. Baker's argument is based on the "Constitution View" of persons and bodies, which aims to show what distinguishes persons from all other beings and to show how we can be fully material beings without being identical to our bodies. This book will be of interest to professional philosophers and graduate...

Saving Belief: A Critique of Physicalism
ISBN: 9780691629919 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This stimulating book critically examines a wide range of physicalistic conceptions of mind in the works of Jerry A. Fodor, Stephen P. Stich, Paul M. Churchland, Daniel C. Dennett, and others. Part I argues that intentional concepts cannot be reduced to nonintentional (and nonsemantic) concepts; Part II argues that intentional concepts are nevertheless indispensable to our cognitive enterprises and thus need no foundation in physicalism. As a sustained challenge to the prevailing interpretation of cognitive science, this timely book fills a large gap in the philosophical literature. It is...
