Being and Worth extends recent depth-realist philosophy to the question of values. It argues that beings both in the natural and human worlds...

On Christian Belief: A Defence of a Cognitive Conception of Religious Belief in a Christian Context
ISBN: 9780415860017 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. "On Christian Belief" offers a defense of realism in the philosophy of religion. It argues that religious belief--with particular reference to Christian belief--unlike any other kind of belief, is cognitive; making claims about what is real, and open to rational discussion between believers and non-believers. The author begins by providing a critique of several views which either try to describe a faith without cognitive context, or to justify believing on non-cognitive grounds. He then discusses what sense can be made of the phenomenon of religious conversion by realists and non-realists....

It argues that beings both in the natural and human worlds have worth in themselves, whether we recognize it or not. This view is defended through an account of the human mind as essentially concerned with that of which it is independent. The book builds on Roy Bhaskar's proof that facts can entail values, and it aims to repeat in the realm of ethics his argument that experiment and change in science show that there is a depth-dimension of real structures in nature and society. This it does by a partial defence and immanent...
