Synopsis

This book offers a revisionist approach to categories, arguing that the standard philosophical approach is substantially correct in some respects, but markedly mistaken in others. The result is a distinctly pragmatic approach to categories and categorization, with implications regarding philosophical problematic and paradox in philosophy of mind, epistemology and metaphysics, philosophy of science, social philosophy and ethics.

À propos de l?auteur

Patrick Grim is known for wide-ranging research both within philosophy and beyond. This is his third collaborative volume with Nicholas Rescher.

Nicholas Rescher, philosopher and polymath, is well known for a prodigious publishing career. A consistent focus in Rescher's work is the dialectical tension between our synoptic aspirations for useful knowledge and our human limitations as finite inquirers.
