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.

The Philosophy of Medicine: Framing the Field

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Englehardt, H. Tristram / Engelhardt, H. Tristram, JR, PUBLISHER: Springer, The term bioethics' was coined in , just as interest in the medical humanities claimed a prominent place in medical education. Out of this interest, a substantial area of research and scholarship took shape: the philosophy of medicine. This field has been directed to the epistemological, ontological, and value-theoretical issues occasioned by medicine and the biomedical sciences. Bioethics is nested in this field and can only be fully understood in terms of the foundational issues it addresses. This collection of essays in honor of Stuart F. Spicker, one of the individuals who gave shape to the philosophy of medicine, lays out the broad scope of concerns from the philosophy of embodiment, to issues of the role of ethics consultants, to concepts of disease, equity and the meaning of history.

The Development of Byron's Philosophy of Knowledge: Certain

Taking a fresh approach to Byron,this book argues that he should be understood as a poet whose major works develop a carefully reasoned philosophy of knowledge. Situating him with reference to the thought of the period,it argues for Byron as an active thinker,whose final philosophical stance-reader-centred scepticism-has wide-ranging practical implications. The book examines Childe Harold I,II and III,The Giaour,Lara,Manfred and Don Juan,considering each as a step in Byron's evolving philosophy.
