The Metaphysics of Scientific Realism
ISBN: 9781844652068 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 179 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This title presents a major statement on the dominant philosophy of science by one of the world's leading metaphysicians. Brian Ellis's new book develops the metaphysics of scientific realism to the point where it begins to take on the characteristics of a first philosophy. As most people understand it, scientific realism is not yet such a theory. It is not sufficiently general, and has no plausible applications in fields other than the well-established sciences. Nevertheless, Ellis demonstrates that the original arguments that led to scientific realism may be deployed more widely than they...

The Philosophy of Nature: A Guide to the New Essentialism
ISBN: 9781902683621 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. For many years essentialism - the view that some objects have essentially or necessarily certain properties without which they could not exist or be the things they are - was considered to be beyond the pale in philosophy, a relic of discredited Aristotelianism. This is no longer so. Kripke and Putnam have made belief in essential natures once more respectable. Harre and Madden have boldly argued against Hume's theory of causation, and developed an alternative theory based on the assumption that there are genuine causal powers in nature. Dretske, Tooley, Armstrong, Swoyer and Carroll have all...

Uncontrolled Experiments in Freedom
ISBN: 9780981521336 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 72 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Uncontrolled Experiments In Freedom is a poetically manic and shimmering account of the life of Brian Stephen Ellis. His words shiver, rant and constantly threaten to fall apart under the weight of their own gravity. His narratives come from and carry the images of a world where many believe no poetry to exist. His voice is a second-hand microscope examining the fuzzy science of survival. Ellis' colorful voice is a strong addition to the Boston spoken word tradition

Scientific Essentialism
ISBN: 9780521037747 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Scientific Essentialism defends the view that the fundamental laws of nature depend on the essential properties of the things on which they are said to operate, and are therefore not independent of them. These laws are not imposed upon the world by God, the forces of nature, or anything else, but rather are immanent in the world. Ellis argues that ours is a dynamic world consisting of more or less transient objects that are constantly interacting with each other, and whose identities depend on their roles in these processes. The laws of nature are metaphysically necessary, and consequently,...

Yesterday Won't Goodbye
ISBN: 9781935904120 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 97 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Brian S. Ellis' second book, Yesterday Won't Goodbye, begins with birth and then travels both outward and inward, exercising the meaning of origin and the experience of time. The poems exist to themselves but also carry the others within each, the way the past is constant but ever altering with our experience.

Social Humanism: A New Metaphysics
ISBN: 9781138922228 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this book, Ellis argues that moral and political objectives are not independent of one other, and so must be pursued in tandem. Social humanism is a moral and political philosophy that does just this. As a political philosophy, it justifies the implementation and maintenance of many of the characteristic social policies of welfare states. As a moral philosophy, it provides the foundation required for most human rights legislation. To this end, Ellis elaborates on the theory of social humanism and the need to reconsider the metaphysical foundations of morals. He develops...

Singing Up the Sun: Swimming Through the Moon
ISBN: 9781450500692 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 70 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Singing Up the Sun is a celebration of our relationship to nature, while Swimming Through the Moon is an exploration of human nature. In the tradition of Mary Oliver and Gary Snyder, these poems move beyond the Romantic notion of using nature as merely a metaphor, they plumb the depth of inherent meaning found in the wild world. Like Dylan Thomas, this poet writes a poem every year on his birthday as an anchor in an ever changing world. Fox also enjoys playing with genre, so there are free verses, list poems, haiku, and a triolette. Poetry written over the past 30 years gives the reader a...

On Civilizing Capitalism
ISBN: 9783031296802 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This book shows how modern political, economic and moral theory, including our ideas of liberty and individualism, are trapped in 17th century notions of intuitive reasoning and not informed by modern scientific understanding. Brian Ellis starts with a re-appraisal of the founding of the United Nations and the political and economic policies of the post-war reconstruction period. He then shows how this period, despite its many faults, embodied a philosophy more closely embedded in scientific realism than dominant theories of either left or right today. He goes on to develop this...
