His original selection was somewhat more comprehensive, which is still partly reflected in the Preface. Knowing how much he wished to see ... Read more

  • Aspects of Modern Logic

    by E.W. Beth ...
    Translated by D.H.J. de Jongh, Susan de Jongh-Kearl ...
    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    It is common to consider an area of science as a system of real or sup posed truths which not only continuously extends itself, but also needs periodical revision and therefore tests the inventive capacity of each generation of scholars anew. It sounds highly implausible that a science at one time would be completed, that at that point within its scope there would be no problems left to solve. ... Read more

    by E.W. Beth, J. Piaget ...

  • The Critique Of Judgement (Mobi Classics)

    by Immanuel Kant,John Miller Dow Meiklejohn (Translator) ...
    Philosophy may be said to contain the principles of the rational cognition that concepts afford us of things (not merely, as with logic, the principles of the form of thought in general irrespective of the objects), and, thus interpreted, the course, usually adopted, of dividing it into theoretical and practical is perfectly sound. But this makes imperative a specific distinction on the part of ... Read more

    Origins of Language: A Slim Guide offers a concise and accessible overview of what is known about the evolution of the human capacity for language.

  • Elements of Moral Cognition

    Rawls' Linguistic Analogy and the Cognitive Science of Moral and Legal Judgment

    by John Mikhail ...
    Is the science of moral cognition usefully modelled on aspects of Universal Grammar? Are human beings born with an innate 'moral grammar' that causes them to analyse human action in terms of its moral structure, with just as little awareness as they analyse human speech in terms of its grammatical structure? Questions like these have been at the forefront of moral psychology ever since John ... Read more
