内容説明
In this re-examination of the purpose and direction of philosophy for the new century, Anthony O'Hear engages with the questions: is there knowledge outside of science?; does religion still have meaning and coherence today?; what is beauty?; and why do so few contemporary artists believe in it? O'Hear argues that philosophy should work with the grain of tradition and commonsense to understand politics, religion, aesthetics and the vast number of ethical questions that will continue to arise as the scientific and technical revolution accelerates. Giving up philosophy's special position means giving up our best chances of thinking and acting wisely. In making a strong case for the relevance of philosophy Anthony O'Hear presents a vision for recovering wisdom in our time.
