Descartes: An Intellectual Biography
ISBN: 9780198237242 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 520 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Rene Descartes's insights into the nature of knowledge and the mind have inspired awe and debate through the centuries. But while philosophers have sought to understand the ramifications of his theories, they have paid much less attention to how, exactly, he arrived at his ideas. What twists and turns of his intellect brought him to his epochal conclusions? How did his personal ambitions and the social conditions of his era shape his thought? These questions and more are masterfully answered in Stephen Gaukroger's Descartes, a fascinating look at this most influential of all Renaissance...

The Collapse of Mechanism and the Rise of Sensibility: Science and the Shaping of Modernity, 1680-1760
ISBN: 9780199594931 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Understanding the emergence of a scientific culture - one in which cognitive values generally are modelled on, or subordinated to, scientific ones - is one of the foremost historical and philosophical problems with which we are now confronted. The significance of the emergence of such scientific values lies above all in their ability to provide the criteria by which we come to appraise cognitive enquiry, and which shape our understanding of what it can achieve.
The period between the 1680s and the middle of the eighteenth century is a very distinctive one in this development. It is then... Understanding the emergence of a scientific culture - one in which cognitive values generally are modelled on, or subordinated to, scientific ones - i...

The Aftermath of Syllogism: Aristotelian Logical Argument from Avicenna to Hegel
ISBN: 9781350123151 / Angielski / Miękka / 2019 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Syllogism is a form of logical argument allowing one to deduce a consistent conclusion based on a pair of premises having a common term. Although Aristotle was the first to conceive and develop this way of reasoning, he left open a lot of conceptual space for further modifications, improvements and systematizations with regards to his original syllogistic theory. From its creation until modern times, syllogism has remained a powerful and compelling device of deduction and argument, used by a variety of figures and assuming a variety of forms throughout history. The Aftermath of Syllogism...

This ambitious and important book provides the first truly general account of Francis Bacon as a philosopher.

Cartesian Logic: An Essay on Descartes's Conception of Inference
ISBN: 9780198248255 / Angielski / Twarda / 1989 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book deals with a previously neglected episode in the history of logic and theories of cognition: the way in which conceptions of inference changed during the 17th century. Gaukroger focuses on the work of Descartes, contrasting his explanation of inference as an instantaneous grasp in accord with the natural light of reason with the Aristotelian view of inference as a discursive process. He offers a new interpretation of Descartes' contribution to the question, revealing it to be a significant advance over humanist and late Scholastic conceptions, and argues that the Cartesian account...

The Natural and the Human: Science and the Shaping of Modernity, 1739-1841 / Stephen Gaukroger
ISBN: 9780198757634 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 376 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Stephen Gaukroger presents an original account of the development of empirical science and the understanding of human behaviour from the mid-eighteenth century. Since the seventeenth century, science in the west has undergone a unique form of cumulative development in which it has been consolidated through integration into and shaping of a culture. But in the eighteenth century, science was cut loose from the legitimating culture in which it had had a public rationale as a fruitful and worthwhile form of enquiry. What kept it afloat between the middle of the eighteenth and the middle of the...

The Emergence of a Scientific Culture: Science and the Shaping of Modernity 1210-1685
ISBN: 9780199550012 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 576 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Why did science emerge in the West and how did scientific values come to be regarded as the yardstick for all other forms of knowledge? Stephen Gaukroger shows just how bitterly the cognitive and cultural standing of science was contested in its early development. Rejecting the traditional picture of secularization, he argues that science in the seventeenth century emerged not in opposition to religion but rather was in many respects driven by it. Moreover, science did not present a unified picture of nature but was an unstable field of different, often locally successful but just as often...
