ISBN: 9780192805003 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Is there a such thing as a universal right to have children? Should medical assistance to have children be available to everyone? Are all methods of assisted reproduction legitimate?
Mary Warnock steers a clear path through the web of complex issues underlying these questions.

Dishonest to God: On Keeping Religion Out of Politics
ISBN: 9781441145420 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Here is a pugnacious book by a philosopher who often hits the headlines. The book reflects on the nature of religion and how it relates or ought to relate to the rest of life. Many people today are totally indifferent to religion but religion is far from dead. Indeed religions are intensely defended and aggressively pursued. Religion is a cause for dissension and death. This is beyond dispute. Mary Warnock is concerned with Christianity. She argues that to value religion as the essential foundation of morality is a profound and probably dangerous mistake. Warnock's overriding...

Imagination
ISBN: 9780520037243 / Angielski / Miękka / 1978 / 219 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Imagination is an outstanding contribution to a notoriously elusive and confusing subject. It skillfully interrelates problems in philosophy, the history of ideas and literary theory and criticism, tracing the evolution of the concept of imagination from Hume and Kant in the eighteenth century to Ryle, Sartre and Wittgenstein in the twentieth. She strongly belies that the cultivation of imagination should be the chief aim of education and one of her objectives in writing the book has been to put forward reasons why this is so. Purely philosophical treatment of the concept is shown to...

Critical Reflections on Ownership
ISBN: 9781781955468 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this thought provoking work, Mary Warnock explores what it is to own things, and the differences in our attitude to what we own and what we do not. Starting from the philosophical standpoints of Locke and Hume, the ownership of gardens is presented as a prime example, exploring both private and common ownership, historically and autobiographically. The author concludes that, besides pleasure and pride, ownership brings a sense of responsibility for what is owned and a fundamental question is brought to light: can we feel the same responsibility for what we do not, and never can, own?...

Moral Theory and Medical Practice
ISBN: 9780521388696 / Angielski / Miękka / 1990 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Moral Theory and Medical Practice aims to bring the practical needs of medicine closer to the theoretical interests of philosophy. While most work in the field of medical ethics has been concerned with the examination and solution of practical dilemmas, this book explores the potential benefits of philosophical analysis. By drawing directly on moral theory, philosophical analysis can help to resolve difficulties in the practice of medicine and psychiatry that arise from the obscurity of our concepts of illness and disease. The author provides a specifically philosophical contribution to an...

The Psychology of the Imagination
ISBN: 9780415119542 / Angielski / Miękka / 1972 / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This text was originally published in France, in 1940, under the title of L'Imaginaire. It was designed as an essay in phenomenology and it constitutes an attempt to introduce Husserl's work into French culture, and from there to the English speaking world. Published three years before Being and Nothingness, it reveals Sartre's extended examination of such concepts as nothingness and freedom, both derived here from the consciousness's ability to imagine objects not only as they are but as they are not, and to imagine objects not in existence.
