Our Stories: Essays on Life, Death, and Free Will
ISBN: 9780195374957 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this collection of essays on the metaphysical issues pertaining to death, the meaning of life, and freedom of the will, John Martin Fischer argues (against the Epicureans) that death can be a bad thing for the individual who dies. He defends the claim that something can be a bad thing--a misfortune--for an individual, even if he never experiences it as bad (and even if he does not any longer exist). Fischer also defends the commonsense asymmetry in our attitudes toward death and prenatal nonexistence: we are indifferent to the time before we are born, but we regret that we do not live...

ISBN: 9781469636061 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In the nineteenth century, the colonial territories of California and Hawai'i underwent important cultural, economic, and ecological transformations influenced by an unlikely factor: cows. The creation of native cattle cultures, represented by the Indian vaquero and the Hawaiian paniolo, demonstrates that California Indians and native Hawaiians adapted in ways that allowed them to harvest the opportunities for wealth that these unfamiliar biological resources presented. But the imposition of new property laws limited these indigenous responses, and Pacific cattle frontiers ultimately became...

The authors explore the conditions under which individuals are morally responsible for actions, omissions, consequences, and emotions.

The book develops an account of both components. The authors go on to offer a sustained defense of the thesis that moral...
