书籍简介

这本易懂且新的调查报告介绍了1945年以来英语哲学的核心辩论。在对二十世纪上半叶的哲学辩论进行简要描述之后，对维特根斯坦、赖尔、奥斯汀、奎因和塞拉斯的一些著作进行了扩展讨论。然后，本书描述了随后的几场哲学辩论，这些辩论影响了从20世纪60年代到现在的哲学讨论。书中有

的辩论；克里普克/刘易斯关于可能世界的辩论；波普尔/库恩关于科学的辩论；关于认识论、唯物主义、功能主义和心灵的双方面理论的辩论；以及道德心理学、元伦理学的新工作。

和规范性伦理学的新工作。后一章是对罗蒂的隐喻哲学怀疑论的批评性讨论。此外，本书还广泛关注了斯特劳森、普特南、埃文斯、麦克道尔、威廉姆斯、纳格尔以及许多其他当代哲学家的著作。

托马斯-鲍德温对他的主题进行了生动而连贯的批评性讨论，以一种不熟悉哲学的读者会觉得既刺激又容易理解的方式展示了不同哲学领域之间的联系。

This accessible and up-to-date survey introduces the central debates of English-language philosophy since 1945. A brief description of philosophical debates during the first half of the twentieth century is followed by extended discussions of some of the writings of Wittgenstein, Ryle, Austin, Quine, and Sellars. The book then describes several ensuing philosophical debates that have shaped philosophical discussions from the 1960s until the present day. There are

chapters on: the Davidson/Dummett debate concerning language; the Kripke/Lewis debate concerning possible worlds; the Popper/Kuhn debate concerning science; the debates concerning epistemology, materialism, functionalism, and dual-aspect theories of mind; and recent work in moral psychology, metaethics,

and normative ethics. The final chapter is a critical discussion of Rorty's metaphilosophical scepticism. In addition, there is extensive attention to writings of Strawson, Putnam, Evans, McDowell, Williams, Nagel, and many other contemporary philosophers.

Thomas Baldwin's lively and coherent critical discussion of his subject demonstrates the connections between different areas of philosophy in a way which readers unfamiliar with philosophy will find both stimulating and accessible.
