Philosophy from a Skeptical Perspective (Hardcover)

Philosophy from a Skeptical Perspective (Hardcover)

One of the questions that philosophers discuss is: How can we avoid,or at least reduce,errors when explaining the world? The skeptical answer to this question is: We cannot avoid errors since no statement is certain or even definitely plausible,but we can eliminate some past errors. This book advocates the skeptical position and discusses its practical applications in science,ethics,aesthetics,and politics. It brings philosophy down to earth and comprises an outline of a skeptical guide to the real wo

Boundas and Dyrkton have rendered an invaluable service by opening access to Jean-Clet Martin's important response to the work of Deleuze,a response that combines both philosophical rigor and poetic elegance with an insistence on demonstrating and relaying the conceptual multiplicity at the heart of Deleuzian philosophy,rather than merely commenting on it.' Eugene W. Holland,Ohio State University Jean-Clet Martin,while being a distinguished philosopher in his own right,was one of the earliest an

Holistic life coaching from a Holistic Perspective in

Holistic life coaching from a Holistic Perspective in

From early Shamanic practice in my teenage years to 16 years of Vajrayana Buddhist, I am deeply rooted in positive spiritual traditions. I have spent time both in the UK and a significant time in India learning basic principles of different approaches to holistic healing. In the past, I have worked closely with a Chinese Medicine practitioner and developed an understanding of their system. I use herbs throughout my life to enhance health, diet, and of course meditation, yoga and a positive intention to bring as much benefit to others as possible. Depending on the needs of each client, programmes can be adapted and can include astrology, some forms of divination, and significant cleansing activities. Most important is the intention of the client - this is the first factor that needs to be discussed and clarified. Where do you want to go? How do you want to evolve? Then I can work out how best to help. Initial consultations are free and there are no obligations to continue.

Weighing and Reasoning: Themes from the Philosophy of John

Weighing and Reasoning: Themes from the Philosophy of John Broome: John Broome has made major contributions to, and radical innovations in, contemporary moral philosophy. His research combines the formal method of economics with philosophical analysis. Broome's works stretch over formal axiology, decision theory, philosophy of economics, population axiology, the value of life, the ethics of climate change, the nature of rationality, and practical and theoretical reasoning. Weighing and Reasoning brings together fifteen original essays from leading philosophers who have been influenced by the work and thought of John Broome. It aims to offer a comprehensive evaluation of Broome's wide-ranging and far-reaching philosophical works over the past thirty years. The volume comprises two parts. The first part is focused on Broome's work on the theory of value, as exemplified in his books Weighing Goods, Weighing Lives, Economics out of Economics, andClimate Matters. The second part is focused on his work on practical and theoretical reasoning, which culminated in his Rationality through Reasoning. This volume also includes a piece by Broome on his intellectual history to date.

Terrorism in Perspective

Terrorism in Perspective

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Mahan, Susan G. / Griset, Pamala / Mahan, Sue, PUBLISHER: Sage Publications (CA), For decades, terrorist events have brought the subject of terrorism to the forefront of cultures around the globe and in more recent years, to the United States. And, for as long as violence has been a part of the human experience, the definition of terrorism has been widely debated. Terrorism in Perspective offers undergraduate and graduate students a comprehensive overview of global and domestic terrorism. Rather than focusing on a single definition of terrorism, this volume casts a wider net, focusing on acts of terrorism and their relationship to culture, religion, history, politics, economics, and ideology. Each chapter is introduced with a rich overview of the issues, actors and actions specific to the topic under discussion, providing students with context prior to articles culled from a wide variety of popular, academic, and governmental sources. These previously published articles were selected to deepen the reader's understanding of terrorism by focusing more intently on specific themes. Chapter topics include homegrown terrorism, international terrorism, female involvement in terrorism, the symbiotic relationship between the media and terrorism, and both conventional and non-conventional terrorist tactics. Recommended as a general reference text and as a primary text for undergraduate students in international relations, politics, and violence and terrorism courses.
