Towards Non-Being
ISBN: 9780198783602 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Towards Non-Being presents an account of the semantics of intentional language--verbs such as 'believes', 'fears', 'seeks', 'imagines'. Graham Priest tackles problems concerning intentional states which are often brushed under the carpet in discussions of intentionality, such as their failure to be closed under deducibility. Priest's account draws on the work of the late Richard Routley (Sylvan), and proceeds in terms of objects that may be either existent or non-existent, at worlds that may be either possible or impossible. Since Russell, non-existent objects have had a bad press in...

The western democracies are disintegrating, scarred by violence and gripped with fear of terrorist attacks.

When Julia's ex-lover, the sadistic Paul Mason, joins the project, he has a sinister plan to...

One: Being an Investigation Into the Unity of Reality and of Its Parts, Including the Singular Object Which Is Nothingness
ISBN: 9780199688258 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Graham Priest presents an original exploration of philosophical questions concerning the one and the many. He covers a wide range of issues in metaphysics--including unity, identity, grounding, mereology, universals, being, intentionality, and nothingness--and deploys the techniques of paraconsistent logic in order to offer a radically new treatment of unity. Priest brings together traditions of Western and Asian thought that are usually kept separate in academic philosophy: he draws on ideas from Plato, Heidegger, and Nagarjuna, among other philosophers.
