Cambridge Studies in Philosophy

Argues that sceptical metaphysicians employ shadows of familiar objects, while denying that the entities which cast those shadows really exist.

Elder Crawford L.: Familiar Objects and
their Shadows

Familiar Objects and their Shadows

Introduction; 1. Two false friends of an ontology of familiar objects; 2. Conventionalism as ontological relativism; 3. Realism about material objects: persistence, persistence conditions, and natural kinds; 4. Ontological preference for the temporally small; 5. Ontological preference for microphysical causes; 6. Ontological preference for the spatially small; 7. A third false friend of familiar objects: universal mereological composition; 8. Concluding Hegelian postscript; Appendix: 'mutually interfering' dimensions of difference; Reference.

A systematic account of the nature of fiction explaining why fictions can refer to the world and state facts about it. The book offers tools to address common worries about fictions such as whether they can offer knowledge, by critically engaging with the most insightful contributions from contemporary philosophy.

A View on Fictionality

Truth and Reference in the Making of Fiction

Resistance to Evidence

Consciousness is an intriguing mystery, of which standard accounts all have well-known difficulties. This book develops a novel account of how consciousness is constituted by our neural structure that avoids these difficulties.

The Neural Structure of Consciousness

"Explores the phenomenon of distrusting evidence coming from reliable sources with current examples including climate change and vaccine scepticism. The book argues that evidence resistance relates to a type of cognitive malfunction and distinguishes it from justified evidence rejection occurring in environments polluted with disinformation"--

This book develops a novel account of assertion in terms of its function of sharing knowledge.

A Functionalist Account of Assertion

Sharing Knowledge

"Reasons matter greatly to us in both ordinary and theoretical contexts, being connected to two fundamental normative concerns: figuring out what we should do and what attitudes to have, and understanding the duties and responsibilities that apply to us. This book introduces and critiques most of the contemporary theories of normative reasons-considerations that speak in favor of an action, belief, or emotion-to explore how they work. Artåurs Logins develops and defends a new theory: the Erotetic view of reasons, according to which normative reasons are appropriate answers to normative why questions (Why should I do this?). This theory draws on evidence of how why questions work in informal logic, language and philosophy of science. The resulting view is able to avoid the problems of previous accounts, while retaining all of their attractive features, and it also suggests exciting directions for future research. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core"--

Between Reasoning and Explanation

Normative Reasons

What are reasons to do something?

The Routledge Philosophers

Jean-Paul Sartre was one of the greatest philosophers of the Twentieth century. This comprehensive, clear introduction unpacks and explains Sartre's philosophy, covering all the key topics.

Ontological Explorations Routledge Critical Realism

Meta-Reality emerged from the use of critical realist philosophy to address the fundamental philosophical questions; The nature of the self, The limits of thought, The possibility of personal freedom, The role of religion and spirituality in our lives. In this comprehensive introductory text, the originator of meta-Reality Roy Bhaskar talks the reader through the step by step emergence of his philosophy of meta-Reality, from his earlier philosophy of critical realism. The definition of this theory, and its potential to shed new light on issues is then explored in the book's next eight chapters: Identity and the Self Transcendental Identification, Self-Realization and Freedom The Axial Revolution and Modernity Comparative Religion and Spirituality Unfolding the Enfolded: Creativity, Learning and Education Unconditional Love, Peace and Conflict Resolution 'Unthinking' and the Limits of Thought, Spontaneous Right Action and Re-enchanting Reality Conclusion and Summary: Being BeingThroughout this book, the examination of classical philosophical problems helps the reader to fully understand the author's philosophy of meta-Reality, while at the same time exposing the reader to its implications for philosophical inquiry and the wider world. Frequent references are made to the philosophies that it is in conflict with (Descartes, Hobbes and Hume), and their differences are subjected to close scrutiny, helping to situate this new approach in the field. Here Roy Bhaskar has produced an essential text for all students of modern philosophy with an interest in critical realism. The book's comprehensive approach, depth of analysis, and exploration of a wide range of philosophical problems make it crucial and compelling reading for the postgraduate and undergraduate alike.

Philosophy of Mathematics from the Pythagoreans to Euclid

"This extraordinary book provides a masterful survey of a notoriously baffling subject, yet does so in wonderfully accessible and engaging prose. What Is the Present? is superb scholarship but also exciting news--a captivating report from the front lines of cultural and intellectual engagement. I love this book."--Jesse Matz, author of Lasting Impressions: The Legacies of Impressionism in Contemporary Culture "A bracing, expansive, and consistently surprising meditation on the notion of the present. In an authoritative yet lucid style, Michael North animates with great panache some of the most profound and persistent questions in the history of ideas."--David James, author of Modernist Futures: Innovation and Inheritance in the Contemporary Novel

The Routledge Guides to the Great Books

Aristotle is one of the most important figures in western thought and his seminal work Metaphysics is a benchmark in the history of philosophy. This guidebook introduces and assesses: Aristotle's life and the background to the Metaphysics, the ideas and text of the Metaphysics and the continuing importance and contemporary relevance of Aristotle's work to philosophy. The Routledge Guidebook to Aristotle's Metaphysics is essential reading for all students of philosophy, and anyone approaching the work of Aristotle for the first time.

The Routledge Guidebook to Aristotle’s Metaphysics

This book introduces students and researchers to the philosophical issues at play in the growing field of Bayesian epistemology. It focuses not on how to do particular calculations but instead on the philosophical foundations at the convergence of belief and mathematical representation. Its central questions are: What is the nature of quantifying belief? What is the source of its norms? How is it reasonable to represent belief numerically? Accessible to those without any mathematical background, this book will become a much used classic in the field.
