Kant's Thinker
ISBN: 9780199363728 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Kant's discussion of the relations between cognition and self-consciousness lie at the heart of the Critique of Pure Reason, in the celebrated transcendental deduction. Although this section of Kant's masterpiece is widely believed to contain important insights into cognition and self-consciousness, it has long been viewed as unusually obscure. Many philosophers have tried to avoid the transcendental psychology that Kant employed. By contrast, Patricia Kitcher follows Kant's careful delineation of the necessary conditions for knowledge and his intricate argument that knowledge...

Preludes to Pragmatism: Toward a Reconstruction of Philosophy
ISBN: 9780199899555 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Over the last two decades the distinguished philosopher Philip Kitcher has started to make a serious case for pragmatism as the source of a new life in contemporary philosophy. There are some, like Kitcher, who view today's analytic philosophy as mired in narrowly focused, technical disputes of little interest to the wider world. What is the future of philosophy, and what would it look like? While Classical Pragmatism -- the American philosophy developed by John Dewey, Charles Peirce, and William James in the 19th century -- has a mixed reputation today, Kitcher admires the way its core...

Kant's Transcendental Psychology
ISBN: 9780195085631 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. For the last 100 years historians have denigrated the psychology of the Critique of Pure Reason. In opposition, Patricia Kitcher argues that we can only understand the deduction of the categories in terms of Kant's attempt to fathom the psychological prerequisites of thought, and that this investigation illuminates thinking itself. Kant tried to understand the "task environment" of knowledge and thought: Given the data we acquire and the scientific generalizations we make, what basic cognitive capacities are necessary to perform these feats? What do these capacities imply...

Science, Truth, and Democracy
ISBN: 9780195165524 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Striving to boldly redirect the philosophy of science, this book by renowned philosopher Philip Kitcher examines the heated debate surrounding the role of science in shaping our lives. Kitcher explores the sharp divide between those who believe that the pursuit of scientific knowledge is always valuable and necessary--the purists--and those who believe that it invariably serves the interests of people in positions of power. In a daring turn, he rejects both perspectives, working out a more realistic image of the sciences--one that allows for the possibility of scientific truth, but...

Joyce's Kaleidoscope: An Invitation to Finnegans Wake
ISBN: 9780195321036 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 332 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. James Joyce's Ulysses, once regarded as obscure and obscene, is now viewed as one of the masterpieces of world literature. Yet Joyce's final novel, Finnegans Wake, to which he devoted seventeen years, remains virtually unread, except by scholarly specialists. Its linguistic novelties, apparently based on an immense learning that few can share, make it appear impenetrable. Joyce's Kaleidoscope attempts to dissolve the darkness and to invite lovers of literature to engage with Finnegans Wake. Philip Kitcher proposes that the Wake has at its core...
