Klappentext zu „Second Philosophy “
Many philosophers these days consider themselves naturalists, but it's doubtful any two of them intend the same position by the term. Here Penelope Maddy proposes a particularly austere form of naturalism called 'Second Philosophy'. Using the persona of an idealized inquirer - the 'Second Philosopher' - she constructs a properly second-philosophical line of thought which she then practises in reflections on the ground of logical truth, the methodology, ontology andepistemology of mathematics, and the general prospects for metaphysics naturalized.

Rezension zu „Second Philosophy “
This is a very good book. It is reflective, highly informative, insightful, illuminating...It has lots of new ideas and suggestions. It means to open things up, and it does...It is rich in several dimensions. There is much learning in it, and much to be learned from it. It is very agreeable and enjoyable... Barry Stroud, Mind The book is engaging, wide-ranging, well argued, thorough, informative, and witty. Harvey Siegel, British Journal for the Philosophy of Science ...contains much food for philosophilcal thought. Michael Potter, TLS The book is excellent: the thesis is refreshing, the presentation clear and forthright, the argumentation careful, the research thorough and informed. It contains a wealth of material that should appeal to far more readers than those of us who are already susceptible to second philosophy. It presents the best exploration and defence of naturalism I know of. Michael Liston, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
