The Shape of Space: Second Edition
ISBN: 9780521450140 / Angielski / Twarda / 1994 / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This is a revised and updated edition of Graham Nerlich's classic book (1976). It develops a metaphysical account of space that treats it as a real and concrete entity, showing that shape plays a key explanatory role in space and spacetime theories. Arguing that geometrical explanation is very like causal explanation, Professor Nerlich prepares the ground for philosophical argument and investigates how different spaces would affect perception differently. Along the way Professor Nerlich criticizes and rejects conventionalism as a non-realist metaphysics of space, concluding that there is, in...

Values and Valuing
ISBN: 9780198248477 / Angielski / Twarda / 1990 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This provocative book argues that people are naturally endowed with the ability to speak an articulate language and to form a culture. Language and cultural life require self-appraisal, and hence an evolution--through self-conflict--of desires into values. Nerlich demonstrates that this valuing is a natural process, one that underlies the morals of duty and obligation. He concludes that such valuing will be good only if it results in objective values that are authentic to the individual's nature and surrounding culture.
