On Evil
ISBN: 9780415305198 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Evil has long fascinated psychologists, philosophers, novelists and playwrights but remains an incredibly difficult concept to talk about.
On Evil is a compelling and at times disturbing tour of the many faces of evil. What is evil, and what makes people do awful things? If we can explain evil, do we explain it away? Can we imagine the mind of a serial killer, or does such evil defy description? Does evil depend on a contrast with good, as religion tells us, or can there be evil for evil's sake? Adam Morton argues that any account of evil must help us understand three things:...

Bounded Thinking: Intellectual Virtues for Limited Agents
ISBN: 9780199658534 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Bounded Thinking offers a new account of the virtues of limitation management: intellectual virtues of adapting to the fact that we cannot solve many problems that we can easily describe. Adam Morton argues that we do give one another guidance on managing our limitations, but that this has to be in terms of virtues and not of rules, and in terms of success--knowledge and accomplishment--rather than rationality. He establishes a taxonomy of intellectual virtues, which includes 'paradoxical virtues' that sound like vices, such as the virtue of ignoring evidence and the virtue of not...

The Power of Laughter and Satire in Early Modern Britain: Political and Religious Culture, 1500-1820
ISBN: 9781783272037 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 262 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This interdisciplinary collection considers the related topics of satire and laughter in early modern Britain through a series of case studies ranging from the anti-monastic polemics of the early Reformation to the satirical invasion prints of the Napoleonic wars.

Within an over-arching investigation...

Emotion and Imagination
ISBN: 9780745649573 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Recent years have seen an enormous amount of philosophical research into the emotions and the imagination, but as yet little work has been done to connect the two. In his engaging and highly original new book, Adam Morton shows that all emotions require some form of imagination and goes on to fully explore the link between these two important concepts both within philosophy and in everyday life.
We may take it for granted that complex emotions, such as hope and resentment, require a rich thinking and an engagement with the imagination, but Morton shows how more basic and responsive...
