内容説明

What is knowledge? What is the extent of our knowledge? What are the sources of knowledge? Is there any genuine knowledge? Epistemology is one of the core areas of philosophy. It is concerned with the nature, sources and limits of knowledge. There is a vast array of views about those topics, and the titles selected here provide a range of these different perspectives. Included are works by Emile Meyerson, whose deliberations on the philsophy of the intellect were to command the respect of his contemporaries; a further study on the ideas of Meyerson himself by Jospeh LaLumia; and a collection of writings by British epistemologist Henry Habberly Price, based on the Gifford Lectures of 1959-60, that draw on the relationship between belief and knowledge.

内容説明

This is Volume II of six in a collection on Epistemology. Originally published in 1972, the central concern of this book is the understanding of the nature of the universe. Its field is thus that which until the eighteenth century had been known as philosophia naturalis, the philosophy of nature. The aim of the book is to elucidate and examine the fundamental concepts in terms of which the universe is understood.
