This book collects nine seminal essays by Mark Richard published between 1980 and 2014, alongside four new essays and an introduction that puts the essays in context.

Part II develops and defends a relativist view of the objects of assertion and thought; it includes discussions of the nature of disagreement, moral relativism, and responds to important objections to relativism. It also explores the idea that...

With "Charity, " Mark Richard again secures the distinction of poet laureate of the orphaned poor, the broken, the deceived, and the unrelieved. In stylistic brilliance, he renders their conditions with grace and compassion, and redeems and transports their tragedy with wicked humor.
In the much-anthologized "The Birds for Christmas," two hospitalized boys beg a night nurse to let them watch Hitchcock's classic thriller film on television, believing it will relieve their Yuletide loneliness. "Gentleman's Agreement" is a classic father-son story of fear and the violence of love. In...

Context and the Attitudes collects thirteen seminal essays by Mark Richard on semantics and propositional attitudes.

Propositional Attitudes: An Essay on Thoughts and How We Ascribe Them
ISBN: 9780521388191 / Angielski / Miękka / 1990 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book makes a stimulating contribution to the philosophy of language and philosophy of mind. It begins with a spirited defense of the view that propositions are structured and that propositional structure is "psychologically real." The author then develops a subtle view of propositions and attitude ascription. The view is worked out in detail with attention to such topics as the semantics of conversations, iterated attitude ascriptions, and the role of propositions as bearers of truth. Along the way important issues in the philosophy of mind are addressed.

When Truth Gives Out
ISBN: 9780199587285 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Is the point of belief and assertion invariably to think or say something true? Is the truth of a belief or assertion absolute, or is it only relative to human interests? Most philosophers think it incoherent to profess to believe something but not think it true, or to say that some of the things we believe are only relatively true. Common sense disagrees. It sees many opinions, such as those about matters of taste, as neither true nor false; it takes it as obvious that some of the truth is relative.

But what about provision from God; do we know how to receive it? We ask God often to bail us out of a situation; unaware God had provision made, not to even face the heartache. Cancer, memory loss, obesity, divorce and want; answers are all within God's provision. The...
