Why We Doubt
This book, the first of its kind, puts forward a novel, unified cognitive account of skeptical doubt. Historically, most philosophers have tried to tackle this difficult topic by directly arguing that skeptical doubt is false. But N. Ángel Pinillos does something different. He begins by trying to uncover the hidden mental rule which, for better or worse, motivates our skeptical inclinations. He then gives an account of the broader cognitive purpose of having and applying this rule. Based on these ideas, he shows how we can give a new response to the traditional problem of global skepticism. He also argues that philosophical skepticism is not just something that comes up during philosophical...
A Companion to Experimental Philosophy
This is a comprehensive collection of essays that explores cutting-edge work in experimental philosophy, a radical new movement that applies quantitative and empirical methods to traditional topics of philosophical inquiry. Situates the discipline within Western philosophy and then surveys the work of experimental philosophers by sub-discipline Contains insights for a diverse range of fields, including linguistics, cognitive science, anthropology, economics, and psychology, as well as almost every area of professional philosophy today Edited by two rising scholars who take a broad and inclusive approach to the field Offers a complete introduction for non-specialists and students to the central approaches, findings, challenges, and controversies in experimental philosophy
The Theory and Practice of Experimental Philosophy
In recent years, developments in experimental philosophy have led many thinkers to reconsider their central assumptions and methods. It is not enough to speculate and introspect from the armchair—philosophers must subject their claims to scientific scrutiny, looking at evidence and in some cases conducting new empirical research. The Theory and Practice of Experimental Philosophy is an introduction and guide to the systematic collection and analysis of empirical data in academic philosophy. This book serves two purposes: first, it examines the theory behind “x-phi,” including its underlying motivations and the objections that have been leveled against it. Second, the book offers a practical guide for those interested in doing experimental philosophy, detailing how to design, implement, and analyze empirical studies. Thus, the book explains the reasoning behind x-phi and provides tools to help readers become experimental philosophers.
Beings of Thought and Action
Examines the ways in which epistemic and practical rationality are intertwined.
Current Controversies in Experimental Philosophy
Experimental philosophy is one of the most active and exciting areas in philosophy today. In Current Controversies in Experimental Philosophy, Elizabeth O’Neill and Edouard Machery have brought together twelve leading philosophers to debate four topics central to recent research in experimental philosophy. The result is an important and enticing contribution to contemporary philosophy which thoroughly reframes traditional philosophical questions in light of experimental philosophers’ use of empirical research methods, and brings to light the lively debates within experimental philosophers’ intellectual community. Two papers are dedicated to the following four topics: Language (Edouard ...
Паскудне, тупе й коротке
Написати цю книжку Скотта Гершовіца надихнули власні сини. Автор доводить, що діти є носіями філософських думок і їхні запитання — це не дивні, дурні чи пусті балачки, а справжнє мистецтво мислити. Автор на прикладі спілкування із синами Рексом і Генком розбирає практичні філософські теми: від правопорушень і використання матюків до феномену зубної феї та Бога. А коли щодень нама...
Aventuras pela filosofia com meus filhos
Quantas vezes você realmente parou para ouvir o que as crianças à sua volta têm a dizer? O professor Scott Hershovitz afirma: Toda criança é uma filósofa. E, ouvindo-as, nos oferece um novo olhar sobre a filosofia em Aventuras pela filosofia com meus filhos.

E, como Scott Hershovitz revela em seu encantador livro de estreia, eles são surpreendentemente bons filósofos. Hershovitz é professor de direito e filosofia, além...

Replacing Truth
Kevin Scharp proposes an original account of the nature and logic of truth, on which truth is an inconsistent concept that should be replaced for certain theoretical purposes. He argues that truth is best understood as an inconsistent concept; develops an axiomatic theory of truth; and offers a new kind of possible-worlds semantics for this theory.
