Produktinformationen zu „Human Nature (ePub)“
This major new study by one of the most penetrating and persistent
critics of philosophical and scientific orthodoxy, returns to
Aristotle in order to examine the salient categories in terms of
which we think about ourselves and our nature, and the distinctive
forms of explanation we invoke to render ourselves intelligible to
ourselves.
* * The culmination of 40 years of thought on the philosophy of
mind and the nature of the mankind
* Written by one of the world's leading philosophers, the
co-author of the monumental 4 volume Analytical Commentary on
the Philosophical Investigations (Blackwell Publishing,
1980-2004)
* Uses broad categories, such as substance, causation, agency and
power to examine how we think about ourselves and our nature
* Platonic and Aristotelian conceptions of human nature are
sketched and contrasted
* Individual chapters clarify and provide an historical overview
of a specific concept, then link the concept to ideas contained in
other chapters
