内容説明
This collection of essays marks the occasion of Dan O'Connor's 75th birthday, and provides the opportunity for the contributors to show their appreciation of his work in philosophy. The essays each discuss a topic which has commanded his attention. In print or in personal discussion, though not every essay takes issue with him directly. The range of these topics, from philosophical logic to the philosophy of education, reflects his commitment to following through the consequences of the fundamental principles of logical empiricism for the major questions of philosophy. Inheriting these principles from Russel and Carnap - and more distantly from Locke and Hume - Dan O'Connor's service to his subject has been it their unwavering defence. But this primary task has been supplemented by a strong interest in the history of philosophy. His most important works includes "John Locke", "HAquinas and natural law" and the "Critical history of Western philosophy".
