Religious Commitment and Secular Reason
ISBN: 9780521775700 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Many religious people are alarmed about features of the current age--violence in the media, a pervasive hedonism, a marginalization of religion, and widespread abortion. These concerns influence politics, but just as there should be a separation between church and state, so should there be a balance between religious commitments and secular arguments calling for social reforms. Robert Audi offers a principle of secular rationale, which does not exclude religious grounds for action but which rules out restricting freedom except on grounds that any rational citizen would accept. This book...

Reasons, Rights, and Values
ISBN: 9781107480803 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. A central concern in recent ethical thinking is reasons for action and their relation to obligations, rights, and values. This collection of recent essays by Robert Audi presents an account of what reasons for action are, how they are related to obligation and rights, and how they figure in virtuous conduct. In addition, Audi reflects in his opening essay on his theory of reasons for action, his common-sense intuitionism, and his widely debated principles for balancing religion and politics. Reasons are shown to be basic elements in motivation, grounded in experience, and crucial for...

The Structure of Justification
ISBN: 9780521440646 / Angielski / Twarda / 1993 / 496 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This collection of papers (including three completely new ones) by one of the foremost philosophers in epistemology transcends two of the most widely misunderstood positions in philosophy--foundationalism and coherentism. Audi proposes a distinctively moderate, internalist foundationalism that incorporates some of the virtues of both coherentism and reliabilism. He develops important distinctions between positive and negative epistemic dependence, substantively and conceptually naturalistic theories, dispositional beliefs and dispositions to believe, episodically and structurally inferential...

The Architecture of Reason: The Structure and Substance of Rationality
ISBN: 9780195158427 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The literature on theoretical reason has been dominated by epistemological concerns, treatments of practical reason by ethical concerns. This book overcomes the limitations of dealing with each separately. It sets out a comprehensive theory of rationality applicable to both practical and theoretical reason. In both domains, Audi explains how experience grounds rationality, delineates the structure of central elements, and attacks the egocentric conception of rationality. He establishes the rationality of altruism and thereby supports major moral principles. The concluding part describes the...

Rational Belief: Structure, Grounds, and Intellectual Virtue
ISBN: 9780190221843 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Rational Belief provides conceptions of belief and knowledge, offers a theory of how they are grounded, and connects them with the will and thereby with action, moral responsibility, and intellectual virtue. A unifying element is a commitment to representing epistemology-which is centrally concerned with belief-as integrated with a plausible philosophy of mind that does justice both to the nature of belief and to the conditions for its formation and regulation. Part One centers on belief and its relation to the will. It explores our control of our beliefs, and it describes several...

Action, Decision, and Intention: Studies in the Foundation of Action Theory as an Approach to Understanding Rationality and Decision
ISBN: 9789401085885 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Most of the papers in this collection are contributions to action theory intended to be of some relevance to one or another concern of decision theory, particularly to its application to concrete human behavior. Some of the papers touch only indirectly on problems of interest to decision theorists, but taken together they should be of use to both decision theorists and philosophers of action. Robert Audi's paper indicates how a number of questions in action theory might bear on problems in decision theory, and it suggests how some action-theoretic results may help in the construction or...

Rationality and Religious Commitment
ISBN: 9780199686612 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Rationality and Religious Commitment shows how religious commitment can be rational and describes the place of faith in the postmodern world. It portrays religious commitment as far more than accepting doctrines--it is viewed as a kind of life, not just as an embrace of tenets. Faith is conceived as a unique attitude. It is irreducible to belief but closely connected with both belief and conduct, and intimately related to life's moral, political, and aesthetic dimensions.
Part One presents an account of rationality as a status attainable by mature religious people--even those with a... Rationality and Religious Commitment shows how religious commitment can be rational and describes the place of faith in the postmodern world. It portr...

Means, Ends, and Persons: The Meaning and Psychological Dimensions of Kant's Humanity Formula
ISBN: 9780190251550 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. No one wants to be treated merely as a means-"used," in a sense. But just what is this repugnant treatment? Audi's point of departure is Kant's famous principle that we must treat persons as ends in themselves and never merely as means. Treatment of these kinds is conduct, a complex three-dimensional notion whose central elements are action, its motivation, and the manner of its performance. He shows how the notions of treating persons as ends and, by contrast, merely as means, can be anchored outside Kant and clarified in ways that enhance their usefulness both in ethical theory and in...

This book offers a unified collection of published and unpublished papers by Robert Audi, a renowned defender of the rationalist position in ethics. Taken together, the essays present a vigorous, broadly-based argument in moral epistemology and a related account of reasons for action and their bearing on moral justification and moral character. Part I details Audi's compelling moral epistemology while Part II offers a unique vision of ethical concepts and an account of moral explanation, as well as a powerful model of moral realism. Part III extends this account of moral explanation to moral...

The Good in the Right: A Theory of Intuition and Intrinsic Value
ISBN: 9780691123882 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book represents the most comprehensive account to date of an important but widely contested approach to ethics--intuitionism, the view that there is a plurality of moral principles, each of which we can know directly. Robert Audi casts intuitionism in a form that provides a major alternative to the more familiar ethical perspectives (utilitarian, Kantian, and Aristotelian). He introduces intuitionism in its historical context and clarifies--and improves and defends--W. D. Ross's influential formulation. Bringing Ross out from under the shadow of G. E. Moore, he puts a reconstructed... This book represents the most comprehensive account to date of an important but widely contested approach to ethics--intuitionism, the view that th... |

ISBN: 9780195374117 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Can the moral fragmentation so prominent in the contemporary world be overcome? Are there ethical standards that deserve everyone's allegiance? Can judgments of value transcend taste and cultural preference?

ISBN: 9780415364638 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. What role does reason play in our actions? How do we know whether what we do is right? Can practical reasoning guide ethical judgment?
"Practical Reasoning and Ethical Decision "presents an account of practical reasoning as a process that can explain action, connect reasoning with intention, justify practical judgments, and provide a basis for ethical decisions. The first part of the book is a detailed critical overview of the influential theories of practical reasoning found in Aristotle, Hume, and Kant. The second part examines practical reasoning in the light of important topics in... What role does reason play in our actions? How do we know whether what we do is right?
