http://www.plentyofebooks.net/ Topics in Early Modern Philosophy of Mind Editor(s): Jon Miller Publisher: Springer Date: 2009 Pages: 277 Format: PDF Language: English ISBN-10: 9048123801 ISBN-13: 978-9048123803 Size: 3.71 MB ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Description: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- During the early modern era (c. 1600-1800), philosophers formulated a number of new questions, methods of investigation, and theories regarding the nature of the mind. The result of their efforts has been described as “the original cognitive revolution”. Topics in Early Modern Philosophy of Mind provides a comprehensive snapshot of this exciting period in the history of thinking about the mind, presenting studies of a wide array of philosophers and topics. Written by some of today’s foremost authorities on early modern philosophy, the ten chapters address issues ranging from those that have long captivated philosophers and psychologists as well as those that have been underexplored. Likewise, the papers engage figures from the history of ideas who are well-known today (Descartes, Hume, Kant) as well as those who have been comparatively neglected by contemporary scholarship (Desgabets, Boyle, Collins). This volume will become an essential reference work that graduate students and professionals in the fields of philosophy of mind, the history of philosophy, and the history of psychology will want to own. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About the Author: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jon Miller is a specialist in the history of philosophy, especially early modern rationalism and the Hellenistic period of ancient philosophy. His main interest lies in understanding how philosophers of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries received the ideas of their ancient predecessors. Many of his publications deal with Spinoza and the Stoics, although he has also written about Grotius, Descartes, skepticism and happiness. Currently teaching in Canada, Dr. Miller has also held positions in Sweden and the United States. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- No Password or Surveys.
