Cell And Psyche - The Biology Of Purpose
ISBN: 9781443728973 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 132 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. CELL AND PSYCHE THE BIOLOGY OF PURPOSE By EDMUND W. SINNOTT. PREFACE TO THE TORCHBOOK EDITION: SINCE the publication of this little book, as the McNair Lectures at the University of North Carolina, the author has written two others, as well as a number of papers, on the same gen eral theme. Though these elaborate the argument a little further, the essence of it is in Cell and Psyche. This is admittedly a specula tion, but one based solidly on biological fact. It has been regarded as rather visionary and metaphysical by some people, but others have been attracted to it by the suggestion it...

The RAF and Aircraft Design: Air Staff Operational Requirements 1923-1939
ISBN: 9780714651583 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This work examines the evolution of the RAF's operational requirements for its home defence air force - for bombers to mount a deterrent counter offensive and for fighters to provide direct defence of Britain. It discusses the management processes, policies and decisions relevant to operational requirements on the basis of a detailed study of Air Ministry papers of the time. By tracing the development of operational requirements, the author exposes the thinking behind the RAF's quest for effective fighter and bomber aircraft. He describes the ideas and concepts of air warfare that were...

Moral Skepticisms
ISBN: 9780195187724 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 286 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. All contentious moral issues--from gay marriage to abortion and affirmative action--raise difficult questions about the justification of moral beliefs. How can we be justified in holding on to our own moral beliefs while recognizing that other intelligent people feel quite differently and that many moral beliefs are distorted by self-interest and by corrupt cultures? Even when almost everyone agrees--e.g. that experimental surgery without consent is immoral--can we know that such beliefs are true? If so, how?
These profound questions lead to fundamental issues about the nature of... All contentious moral issues--from gay marriage to abortion and affirmative action--raise difficult questions about the justification of moral beliefs...

Modality, Morality and Belief: Essays in Honor of Ruth Barcan Marcus
ISBN: 9780521440820 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 290 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Modality, morality and belief are among the most controversial topics in philosophy today, and few philosophers have shaped these debates as deeply as Ruth Barcan Marcus. Inspired by her work, a distinguished group of philosophers explore these issues, refine and sharpen arguments and develop new positions on such topics as possible worlds, moral dilemmas, essentialism, and the explanation of actions by beliefs. Together, this collection honors one of the most rigorous and iconoclastic of philosophical pioneers.

Morality Without God?
ISBN: 9780199841356 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Some argue that atheism must be false, since without God, no values are possible, and thus everything is permitted. Walter Sinnott-Armstrong argues that God is not only not essential to morality, but that our moral behavior should be utterly independent of religion. He attacks several core ideas: that atheists are inherently immoral people; that any society will sink into chaos if it is becomes too secular; that without religion, we have no reason to be moral; that absolute moral standards require the existence of God; and that without religion, we simply couldn't know what is wrong and what...

Rationality, Rules, and Ideals: Critical Essays on Bernard Gert's Moral Theory
ISBN: 9780742513174 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 334 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Bernard Gert's moral theory is among the clearest and most comprehensive on the contemporary scene. It touches on elements of the dominant ethical orientations---utilitarianism, Kantianism, contractionism, and virtue ethics--without fitting neatly into any of those categories. For that reason, Gert's moral theory appeals to many ethicists dissatisfied with each of the dominant formulations. Rationality, Rules, and Ideals presents Gert's Morality, the reactions by a number of prominent scholars, and Gert's response. All told, it is a remarkably wide-ranging study of ethical theory. The work is...

Moral Skepticism
ISBN: 9780195342062 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Sinnott-Armstrong here provides an extensive survey of the difficult subject of moral beliefs. He covers theories that grapple with questions of morality such as naturalism, normativism, intuitionism, and coherentism. He then defends his own theory that he calls "moderate moral skepticism," which is that moral beliefs can be justified, but not extremely justified.

Finding Consciousness: The Neuroscience, Ethics, and Law of Severe Brain Damage
ISBN: 9780190280307 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Modern medicine enables us to keep many people alive after they have suffered severe brain damage and show no reliable outward signs of consciousness. Many such patients are misdiagnosed as being in a permanent vegetative state when they are actually in a minimally conscious state. This mistake has far-reaching implications for treatment and prognosis. To alleviate this problem, neuroscientists have recently developed new brain-scanning methods to detect consciousness in some of these patients and even to ask them questions, including "Do you want to stay alive?" Finding...

Conscious Will and Responsibility
ISBN: 9780195381641 / Twarda / 2010 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. We all seem to think that we do the acts we do because we consciously choose to do them. This commonsense view is thrown into dispute by Benjamin Libet's eyebrow-raising experiments, which seem to suggest that conscious will occurs not before but after the start of brain activity that produces physical action. Libet's striking results are often claimed to undermine traditional views of free will and moral responsibility and to have practical implications for criminal justice. His work has also stimulated a flurry of further fascinating scientific research--including findings in psychology...

Moral Psychology: The Evolution of Morality: Adaptations and Innateness
ISBN: 9780262693547 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 583 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. For much of the twentieth century, philosophy and science went their separate ways. In moral philosophy, fear of the so-called naturalistic fallacy kept moral philosophers from incorporating developments in biology and psychology. Since the 1990s, however, many philosophers have drawn on recent advances in cognitive psychology, brain science, and evolutionary psychology to inform their work. This collaborative trend is especially strong in moral philosophy, and these volumes bring together some of the most innovative work by both philosophers and psychologists in this emerging...
