Philosophical Papers: Volume One
ISBN: 9780195155525 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. While well-known for his book-length work, philosopher Peter Unger's articles have been less widely accessible. These two volumes of Unger's Philosophical Papers include articles spanning more than 35 years of Unger's long and fruitful career. Dividing the articles thematically, this first volume collects work in epistemology and ethics, among other topics, while the second volume focuses on metaphysics.

Philosophical Relativity
ISBN: 9780195155532 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this short but meaty book, Peter Unger questions the objective answers that have been given to central problems in philosophy. As Unger hypothesizes, many of these problems are unanswerable, including the problems of knowledge and scepticism, the problems of free will, and problems of causation and explanation. In each case, he argues, we arrive at one answer only relative to an assumption about the meaning of key terms, terms like "know" and like "cause," even while we arrive at an opposite answer relative to quite different assumptions, but equally arbitrary assumptions, about what the...

Empty Ideas: A Critique of Analytic Philosophy
ISBN: 9780199330812 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Peter Unger's provocative new book poses a serious challenge to contemporary analytic philosophy, arguing that to its detriment it focuses the predominance of its energy on "empty ideas." In the mid-twentieth century, philosophers generally agreed that, by contrast with science, philosophy should offer no substantial thoughts about the general nature of concrete reality. Leading philosophers were concerned with little more than the semantics of ordinary words. For example: Our word "perceives" differs from our word "believes" in that the first word is used more strictly than the second....

Ignorance: A Case for Scepticism
ISBN: 9780198244172 / Angielski / Miękka / 1979 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In these challenging pages, Unger argues for the extreme skeptical view that, not only can nothing ever be known, but no one can ever have any reason at all for anything. A consequence of this is that we cannot ever have any emotions about anything: no one can ever be happy or sad about anything. Finally, in this reduction to absurdity of virtually all our supposed thought, he argues that no one can ever believe, or even say, that anything is the case.

Identity, Consciousness and Value
ISBN: 9780195079173 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The topic of personal identity has prompted some of the liveliest and most interesting debates in recent philosophy. In a fascinating new contribution to the discussion, Peter Unger presents a psychologically aimed, but physically based, account of our identity over time. While supporting the account, he explains why many influential contemporary philosophers have underrated the importance of physical continuity to our survival, casting a new light on the work of Lewis, Nagel, Nozick, Parfit, Perry, Shoemaker, and others. Deriving from his discussion of our identity itself, Unger produces a...

All the Power in the World
ISBN: 9780195155617 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 670 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This bold and original work of philosophy presents an exciting new picture of concrete reality. Peter Unger provocatively breaks with what he terms the conservatism of present-day philosophy, and returns to central themes from Descartes, Locke, Berkeley, Hume and Russell. Wiping the slate clean, Unger works, from the ground up, to formulate a new metaphysic capable of accommodating our distinctly human perspective. He proposes a world with inherently powerful particulars of two basic sorts: one mental but not physical, the other physical but not mental. Whether of one sort or the other,...

Living High and Letting Die: Our Illusion of Innocence
ISBN: 9780195108590 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. By contributing a few hundred dollars to a charity like UNICEF, a prosperous person can ensure that fewer poor children die, and that more will live reasonably long, worthwhile lives. Even when knowing this, however, most people send nothing, and almost all of the rest send little. What is the moral status of this behavior? To such common cases of letting die, our untutored response is that, while it is not very good, neither is the conduct wrong. What is the source of this lenient assessment? In this contentious new book, one of our leading philosophers argues that our intuitions about...

Elmer's Ethics
ISBN: 9781596300644 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The Story of Elmer Barron is more than the story of one man. It is an extraordinary example of a man raised in a simple environment who lived 96 years of a full and wholesome life encapsulating virtues that we should all emulate. This book, by Elmer's Pastor, Rev. Peter Unger, is a tribute--and an attempt to capture the unique Spirit of a close friend, mentor, father figure, and church member all rolled into one. The lessons that flow from Elmer's life are day-to-day examples of ethical living. The biography is skillfully woven into a theological context as an uplifting example worth studying...
