A fascinating exploration of the theories and arguments surrounding the notions of thought and representation. Now in its 2nd edition, Cranes's classic text has introduced thousands to some of the most important ideas in philosophy of mind.
This volume showcases fourteen essays, written by leading experts on the notion of acquaintance, which span philosophy of mind, epistemology, and philosophy of language. Together they present the main issues and debates that surround the concept and explore such related topics as phenomenal consciousness, perceptual experience, and reference.
Theory of Science provides an accessible but systematic survey of perspectives on science and rationality through the arguments and ideas of leading thinkers of the 20th century, including Einstein, Carnap, Popper, Kuhn, Feyerabend, Hempel, Gadamer, Foucault, and Harding. The book also gives a critical introduction to scientific methodology, including the relationship between theory and observation, the problem of induction, hypothetic-deductive method, truth and progress, and explanation in natural and human science. The book covers the theory of science - part of the syllabus in Examen Philosophicum at The Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) - for which there has hitherto been no unitary text book in English. Theory of Science is also suited to use in other courses at various levels, as well as being of interest to a wider audience concerned with the philosophical and social problems of science.
"Marketing accountability has become a hot topic in the boardroom. This book explains how marketers and their agencies can communicate the value of marketing and advertising to a business audience - in part by exposing the fallacy that customer behavior is the product of pure Vulcan-like rationality." --Résumé de l'éditeur.

Dear reader, please take time to note Two ways to read this book I wrote. The first way is for everyone, Just read the book, enjoy the fun. The second way will challenge those Who like to look beyond the prose. Who'd like to ACT just like a 'cat' (And that's an anagram, in fact). Join in the fun with a host of quirky animals, and find out why a bear doesn't want to be bare, a seal goes to a sale, and a dingo is doing a dance.
