The task of writing about feminism often seems to be regulated by a series of ‘either/or’s. A text can be philosophical, or historical. It can be about feminism as

James A. Harris, Reader in the History of Philosophy, University of St Andrews Author of Hume: An Intellectual Biography Today Hume is generally thought of as a philosopher who also wrote some history. The nineteenth century thought of Hume as a historian who also wrote some philosophy. In the first intellectual biography of Hume, I present his life as a reader, thinker and writer in terms more appropriate to his age – as the career of a man of letters whose analytical intelligence and literary flair had no regard for the disciplinary boundaries of the modern academic world.

The Cambridge Descartes Lexicon is the definitive reference source on René Descartes, ‘the father of modern philosophy’ and arguably among the most important philosophers of all time.

Examining the full range of Descartes’ achievements and legacy, it includes 256 in-depth entries that explain key concepts relating to his thought.

Cumulatively they uncover interpretative disputes, trace his influences, and explain how his work was received by critics and developed by followers. There are entries on topics such as certainty, cogito ergo sum, doubt, dualism, free will, God, geometry, happiness, human being, knowledge, Meditations on First Philosophy, mind, passion, physics, and virtue, which are written by the largest and most distinguished team of Cartesian scholars ever assembled for a collaborative research project – 92 contributors from ten countries.

An Intellectual Biography James A. Harris University of St Andrews, Scotland

This book will be read by all those interested in the life and writing of David Hume. This includes students (undergraduate and postgraduate) and academics working in a wide variety of fields, including philosophy, politics, history, English/Scottish literature, the history of economics and divinity/ theology.

‘This book is original in its perspective on Hume, partly because it sees Hume as a literary man eager to make a successful career through the exercise of skepticism and impartiality over a wide range of topics. It is a well-thought-out biography which is as good as or better than anything written on Hume’s thought. It is well written and makes good sense of what Hume should be remembered for.’

A new edition of a critical conceptual history of psychology that traces the continuities and discontinuities in scientific thought about human

University of Rochester, New York

This is the first in-depth treatment of the major theories of the sublime, one of the most important concepts in contemporary philosophy. Robert Doran addresses theories from the ancient Greek treatise On the Sublime (attributed to ‘Longinus’) and its early modern reception to the philosophical accounts of Burke and Kant.

‘I cannot say enough how good I think this book is. It is the best discussion of the origins and establishing of the sublime and is wonderful in its scholarly deployment of such a wide range of authors and texts. Doran’s treatment of Kant is of the greatest interest. Kant’s mature theory is examined in the context of his broader moral philosophy as well as through its presentation in the Critique of Judgment.’

Spinoza’s Critique of Religion and its Heirs Marx, Benjamin, Adorno Idit Dobbs-Weinstein Vanderbilt University, Tennessee

By situating Spinoza’s thought in a materialist Aristotelian tradition, this book sheds new light on those who inherit Spinoza’s thought and its

History of philosophy / Ancient philosophy consequences materially and historically rather than metaphysically.

‘For Idit Dobbs-Weinstein, Spinoza is neither the secular liberal he is for Jonathan Israel and Steven Nadler, nor the anatomist of power he is for Antonio Negri and Michael Hardt. He is, rather, the first critical theorist.

In support of this interpretation, she places Spinoza in a materialist tradition that privileges praxis over theoria. This tradition includes Aristotle, Averroes and Maimonides on the one hand, and Marx, Benjamin and Adorno on the other. At its centre is Spinoza’s critique of religion, the political significance of which lies, for Dobbs-Weinstein, in the resistance to all forms of teleology rather than in the establishment of a public sphere.’

The Cambridge History of Philosophy in Late Antiquity Edited by Lloyd P. Gerson University of Toronto

The Cambridge History of Philosophy in Late Antiquity comprises over forty specially commissioned essays by experts on the philosophy of the period 200–800 CE. Designed as a successor to The Cambridge History of Later Greek and Early Medieval Philosophy (ed. A. H. Armstrong), it takes into account some forty years of scholarship since the publication of that volume.

The contributors examine philosophy as it entered literature, science and religion, and offer new and extensive assessments of philosophers who until recently have been mostly ignored. The volume also includes a complete digest of all philosophical works known to have been written during this period.

It will be an invaluable resource for all those interested in this rich and still emerging field.

‘For this new two-volume history Lloyd Gerson commission[ed] eminent scholars to contribute chapters, focusing primarily on the period between 200 and 100 CE … The contributions are uniformly excellent.

In addition to the subtlety with which the myriad philosophical positions and systems are articulated and examined, the contributions all display an impressive acquaintance with the important philological scholarship that informs current attempts to rehabilitate the reputations of authors and works from late antiquity … has already become an indispensable reference work for the period …’

Porphyry’s Commentary on Ptolemy’s Harmonics A Greek Text and Annotated Translation Edited and translated by Andrew Barker University of Birmingham

Socrates and Self-Knowledge Christopher Moore Pennsylvania State University

This book, the first systematic study of Socrates’s interest in self-knowledge, offers new interpretations of both familiar and overlooked texts on selfknowledge in ancient philosophy and will interest researchers and upper-level students of ancient philosophy, Plato, Socrates, and selfhood.

‘Christopher Moore presents a new and insightful perspective on [an] old philosophical theme. He invites his readers to rethink the Socratic

Porphyry’s Commentary, the only surviving ancient commentary on a technical text, is not merely a study of Ptolemy’s Harmonics. It includes virtually free-standing philosophical essays on epistemology, metaphysics, scientific methodology, aspects of the Aristotelian categories and the relations between Aristotle’s views and Plato’s, and a host of briefer comments on other matters of wide philosophical interest.

For musicologists it is widely recognised as a treasury of quotations from earlier treatises, many of them otherwise unknown; but Porphyry’s own reflections on musical concepts (for instance notes, intervals and their relation to

Ancient philosophy ratios, quantitative and qualitative conceptions of pitch, the continuous and discontinuous forms of vocal movement, and so on) and his snapshots of contemporary music-making have been undeservedly neglected. This volume presents the first English translation and a revised Greek text of the Commentary, with an introduction and notes designed to assist readers in engaging with this important and intricate work.

Naturalism and Realism in Kant’s Ethics Frederick Rauscher Michigan State University

This book is the first detailed analysis of Kant’s ethics as anti-realist and idealist, arguing that Kant’s ethics does not require non-natural metaphysics. It will appeal to academic researchers and advanced students of Kant, German idealism and intellectual history.

‘Rauscher offers a well-informed and well-argued discussion of two central issues in Kant’s ethics, claiming him to be a metaphysical naturalist and a moral idealist. Both views are highly controversial, and Rauscher’s contribution to the debate is bound to attract further debate and discussion for some time to come.’

Kant’s Lectures on Ethics A Critical Guide Edited by Lara Denis

The Addresses to the German Nation (1808) is one of Fichte’s best-known works. It is also his most controversial work because of its nationalist elements. In this book, David James places this text and its nationalism within the context provided by Fichte’s philosophical, educational and moral project of creating a community governed by pure practical reason, in which his own foundational philosophical science or Wissenschaftslehre could achieve general recognition.

Rather than marking a break in Fichte’s philosophy, the Addresses to the German Nation and some lesser-known texts from the same period are shown to develop themes already present in his earlier writings. The themes discussed include the opposition between idealism and dogmatism, the role of Fichte’s ‘popular’ lectures and writings in leading individuals to the standpoint of idealism, the view of history demanded by idealism and the role of the state in history.

Agnes Scott College, Decatur

and Oliver Sensen

Tulane University, Louisiana

This collection of new essays is the only book devoted to a philosophical and scholarly study of Kant’s lectures on ethics. Providing significant new insights into Kant’s moral thought, it is of interest to students and scholars of Kant, ethics, political philosophy, religious studies and the history of ideas.

‘In his enlightening new book David James turns to the question of what becomes of Fichte’s idealist subject when it is transposed into the political realm, challenging both those who would see in Fichte an ideologue and those who would divorce Fichte’s political writings from his systematic writings.’

Kant: Lectures and Drafts on Political Philosophy Edited and translated by Frederick Rauscher Michigan State University

Translated by Kenneth R. Westphal Bogaziçi Üniversitesi, Istanbul

This book is the first translation into English of the Reflections which Kant wrote whilst formulating his ideas in political philosophy: the preparatory drafts for Theory and Practice, Toward Perpetual Peace, the Doctrine of Right, and Conflict of the Faculties; and the only surviving student transcription of his course on Natural Right.

Through these texts one can trace the development of his political thought, from his first exposure to Rousseau in the mid 1760s through to his last musings in the late 1790s after his

Advance praise: ‘It would be difficult to imagine a better account of Nietzsche’s early life.

Blue’s research – exemplary in scope and meticulous in rigor – is matched only by the fluidity of his prose.

This will quickly become a standard resource for Nietzsche scholars.’

Schopenhauer: Parerga and Paralipomena Short Philosophical Essays Volume 2 Edited and translated by Adrian Del Caro University of Tennessee

Edited by Christopher Janaway University of Southampton

With the publication of Parerga and Paralipomena in 1851, there finally came some measure of the fame that Schopenhauer thought was his due.

Described by Schopenhauer himself as ‘incomparably more popular than everything up till now’, Parerga is a miscellany of essays addressing themes that complement his work The World as Will and Representation, along with more divergent, speculative pieces. It includes essays on method, logic, the intellect, Kant, pantheism, natural science, religion, education, and language. The present volume offers a new translation, a substantial introduction explaining the context of the essays, and extensive editorial notes on the different published versions of the work. This readable and scholarly edition will be an essential reference for those studying Schopenhauer, the history of philosophy, and nineteenthcentury German philosophy.

Wittgenstein: Lectures, Cambridge 1930–1933 From the Notes of G. E. Moore Edited by David Stern University of Iowa

Brian Rogers Stanford University, California

and Gabriel Citron Yale University, Connecticut

This edition of G. E. Moore’s notes taken at Wittgenstein’s seminal Cambridge lectures in the early 1930s provides, for the first time, an almost verbatim record of those classes. The presentation of the notes is both accessible and faithful to their original manuscripts, and a comprehensive introduction and synoptic table of contents provide the reader with essential contextual information and summaries of the topics in each lecture. The lectures form an excellent introduction to Wittgenstein’s middle-period thought, covering a broad range of philosophical topics, ranging from core questions in the philosophy of language, mind, logic, and mathematics, to illuminating discussions of subjects on which Wittgenstein says very little elsewhere, including ethics, religion, aesthetics, psychoanalysis, and anthropology. The volume also includes a 1932 essay by Moore critiquing Wittgenstein’s conception of grammar, together with Wittgenstein’s response.

A companion website offers access to images of the entire set of source manuscripts.

Advance praise: ‘The material presented in this edition is of the first importance to Wittgenstein scholarship. It helps us narrow in on early but richly developed steps in Wittgenstein’s thinking on issues to do with meaning and understanding, the notion of ‘grammar’, rule following, notions of sense and nonsense, and the foundations of logic and mathematics … The editorial approach laid out in the rich introduction and demonstrated in the main sections of the edition seems to me to be just right, striking a balance between completeness and faithfulness, on the one hand, and readability on the other … this edition helps get us closer to hearing more fully and more directly what Wittgenstein said in his lectures from this period.’

The Impact of Discovering Life beyond Earth Edited by Steven J. Dick Library of Congress, Washington DC

The search for life in the Universe, once the domain of science fiction, is now a robust research program with a well-defined roadmap, from studying the extremes of life on Earth to exploring the possible niches for life in the Solar System and discovering thousands of planets far beyond it.

In addition to constituting a major scientific endeavor, astrobiology is one of the most popular topics in astronomy, and is of growing interest to a broad community of thinkers from across the academic spectrum. In this volume, distinguished philosophers, theologians, anthropologists, historians and scientists discuss the big questions about how the discovery of extraterrestrial life, whether intelligent or microbial, would impact society. Their remarkable and often surprising findings challenge our foundational concepts of what the discovery of alien life may hold for humankind. Written in easily accessible language, this thought-provoking collection engages a wide audience of readers from all backgrounds.

‘Are we alone in the cosmos? If yes, we can never be sure. If no, we might well have an answer within the decade. The 22 authors of these fascinating and informative essays say no, we are not alone, despite the fact that so far not a shred of evidence has been found for the existence of life elsewhere in the universe. But just in case they are right, we need to start thinking about the possibility that we are not alone, and here is a good place to start.’

The theory of Ockham’s razor has a history dating back to Aristotle. In this book Elliott Sober presents a clear and multidimensional study of the various different incarnations of the theory including their history, the role which they play in several different sciences, and their importance to philosophical argumentation.

‘Sober’s treatment of the role of Ockham’s razor in scientific methodology is, quite simply, the best that one can find in the philosophical literature today. With excursions into such diverse topics as model construction, Bayesian statistics, phylogenetic inference, philosophy of mind, and general philosophical methodology, readers of all stripes will find this book rewarding.’

Natural Categories and Human Kinds Classification in the Natural and Social Sciences Muhammad Ali Khalidi York University, Toronto

In this book, Muhammad Ali Khalidi draws on a detailed examination of classification in the natural and social sciences to argue against essentialism and for a naturalist account of natural kinds. His book is a significant contribution to the growing movement towards naturalism in recent philosophy.

‘Muhammad Ali Khalidi has given us the best articulated treatment to date of a flexible, naturalistic approach to natural kinds. His wide-ranging treatment of kinds in the special sciences is especially noteworthy.

Moreover, the book is so well written that it works well as an introduction to this difficult topic area as well as providing plenty of stimulation for seasoned professionals. It will surely be at the center of future discussion among scientific philosophers and philosophical scientists.’

Resurrecting the Mind Howard Robinson Central European University, Budapest

This book shows that the semantic analysis of notions of possibility and necessity enhance our understanding of reports of belief or emotional state.

This helps to solve problems in semantic theory, and it provides a high level proposal for the nature and effects of the language disorder of fluent aphasia.

Drawing upon the perspectives of neuroscience, philosophy, psychology and law in explaining and assessing human thought and behavior, Free Will and the Brain provides a distinctive approach to the perennial question of whether we have free will and can be responsible for our actions.

‘If ever a subject needed multi-author perspectives, it is this one. Free Will and the Brain fulfils a crucial need by bringing together the expertise of philosophers, psychiatrists, neuroscientists and legal experts. It deals with most aspects of this vast subject, but is particularly strong on brain disorders that disrupt free will and their implications for legal decisions. I strongly recommend it!’

Presented in a fresh series livery, featuring a specially commissioned preface written by Barry Stroud, it has been revived for a new generation of readers.

‘The great merit of this book is that it grasps philosophical problems at that critical stage when they are just casting off their connexions with everyday life, just about to launch on their long academic flight, and that it attempts to deal with them then and there, before they can become airborne. Brisk, homely and almost practical, it really challenges everyone to try to be his own philosopher … the peculiar, penetrating simplicity of this kind of philosophy is exceedingly hard to achieve.’

Written by a team of leading scholars, this comprehensive anthology is the first English-language volume focused on Chinese metaphysics. It provides an invaluable tool for students and readers interested in metaphysics and Chinese philosophy, expanding their understanding and appreciation of the key philosophical traditions in China from pre-Qin to modern times.

‘As the publisher’s blurb states, this is ‘the first English-language anthology devoted to Chinese metaphysics’.

With its twelve meaty chapters and a helpful introduction it is an extremely solid and welcome addition to the rapidly growing body of literature on comparative philosophy …

Anyone with an interest in Chinese

This is the first systematic student introduction dedicated to metametaphysics, discussing the methodology, epistemology and ontology of metaphysical enquiry. It is an essential resource for students of advanced metaphysics, philosophical methodology, metametaphysics, epistemology and the philosophy of science.

‘Tahko strikes exactly the right balance between introducing substantive metaphysical topics and exploring various metametaphysical considerations of those topics. An Introduction to Metametaphysics would make a splendid textbook for anyone offering an upper level course in metaphysics.’

Extraordinary Responsibility Politics beyond the Moral Calculus Shalini Satkunanandan University of California, Davis

Extraordinary Responsibility: Politics beyond the Moral Calculus explores how an impoverished understanding of human responsibility as quantifiable and dischargeable encourages moralistic politics. By reconstructing narratives of ‘conversion’ from ‘calculable responsibility’, which are offered by Plato, Kant, Nietzsche, Weber, and Heidegger, Extraordinary Responsibility elaborates an ethos for a less moralized politics.

‘This essential book is about the importance of giving attention to things that can’t be reduced to rules or formulae, and it doesn’t just call for intensified attentiveness – it models it. With a keen eye for surprising textual details and unusual political angles, Shalini Satkunanandan unsettles reductive interpretations of thinkers from Plato to Koestler and challenges the simplifications through which we too often evade the ethical claims made on us by social and political reality.’

whether Lincoln deserves his reputation as a moral exemplar. It discusses some of his morally controversial policies and presents evidence for thinking he was morally virtuous in many important respects.

‘Lincoln’s Ethics is a brilliant, systematic, carefully argued philosophical investigation into the nature and justification of Lincoln’s political decisions and reasoning. It is broadly accessible and will reward the general reader as well as experts in philosophy and history and those of us who are fascinated by the sixteenth president of the United States of America. Carson has produced what should serve as a role model for future work that aims to integrate philosophy and history.’

German Cosmopolitan Social Thought and the Idea of the West Voices from Weimar Austin Harrington University of Leeds

This groundbreaking study in social theory draws on neglected sources in early twentieth-century German social thought to address core questions in current social science about the place, status and hubris of the modern West in global social and historical change.

Advance praise: ‘This is a significant book that questions the received view about classical social theory. With considerable erudition and a careful reading of a wide range of the most important thinkers in early twentiethcentury Germany, Harrington shows that these theorists had already anticipated some of the ideas that are more commonly associated with contemporary thought. He also demonstrates that the traditional view of the decline of cosmopolitanism needs to be revisited.’

The book is aimed at fellow academics and students of political philosophy, social justice, law, and international relations.

‘Robust, engaging, and smart …

Lomasky and Tesón start from first philosophical principles before considering several highly topical issues, including diplomatic pressure, boycotts, the use of mercenaries, political assassination, humanitarian intervention, and global trade.

Contingent Pacifism

The Ontology of Radical Discontent Alexander S. Duff

Larry May offers a new account of contingent pacifism from within the just war tradition. Featuring real-life examples and considering a variety of traditions and thinkers from Socrates to Kant, this book will interest scholars and upper-level students of political philosophy, global justice, philosophy of law, and war studies.

Heidegger and Politics shows the relevance of Heidegger’s thought for contemporary evaluations of politics by responding to widespread confusion about the political implications of his work. The book will appeal to researchers and graduate students in political theory, political philosophy, moral philosophy, and intellectual history.

‘Heidegger and Politics is both clearly written and theoretically illuminating – no mean feat when dealing with an author as obscure or allusive as Heidegger. Duff takes a subject that invites rhetorical posturing and digs deep into the philosopher’s work to explain why it could inspire such different and incompatible political positions.’

Alienation and Nature in Environmental Philosophy Simon Hailwood University of Liverpool

Is it possible to understand the idea of alienation from nature without recourse to excessive romanticism or mythologising? This book tackles this key question in environmental philosophy, examining it in light of different philosophical traditions. It is of interest to scholars and advanced students of environmental philosophy and environmental studies.

‘Simon Hailwood argues powerfully that there is no single philosophical lens through which to view the complexities of the environmental crisis – much less evaluate and ‘solve’ them. He makes a compelling case for a pragmatic approach, arguing that alienation is an unavoidable – and even necessary – feature of our relation with nature. This ‘reality check’ is one of the most important contributions to environmental thinking and practice of recent years.’

Defending Rorty Pragmatism and Liberal Virtue William M. Curtis

The Mortality and Morality of Nations

University of Portland, Oregon

Uriel Abulof

Liberal democracy requires a robust defense to face the increasingly complex challenges of the twenty-first century. Unlike most contemporary liberal theorists, Richard Rorty provides this defense. Mixing American pragmatism and romanticism, he offers a comprehensive vision of liberal modernity that features a virtue-based conception of the liberal democratic regime.

Princeton University, New Jersey

‘Depicting Richard Rorty as a neopragmatic ‘virtue liberal’, William M. Curtis provides us with the kind of defense that Rorty himself might have offered us had he been first and foremost a political theorist. Deeply grounded in the relevant literature, forcefully argued, and engagingly written, this book deserves the attention of all those interested in contemporary theories of democratic politics – whether or not they share the author’s enthusiasm for Rorty’s distinctive form of liberal utopianism.’

The Mortality and Morality of Nations introduces political existentialism – a new school of thought – and demonstrates its merits in the study of ethnicity, nationalism and political legitimacy. Scholars and students of politics and political sociology, philosophy and psychology will gain groundbreaking insights into the role of mortality and morality in modern societies.

‘Uriel Abulof offers a fascinating exploration of the existential challenges faced by what Milan Kundera has dubbed ‘small nations’ – ethnonational communities that experience a profound sense of collective fragility. Theoretically ambitious and empirically rich, The Mortality and Morality of Nations delves into the self-understandings of the French Canadians of Québec, the Afrikaners of South Africa, and Israeli Jews to explain how common fears of national demise compel them to seek diverse means to bolster the moral foundations of their nationhood. This lucidly written study makes a unique contribution to our knowledge of politics, morality and security.’

The Politics of Objectivity An Essay on the Foundations of Political Conflict Peter J. Steinberger Reed College, Oregon

Peter J. Steinberger reaffirms the idea of rationalism in politics by examining important problems of public life in the light of established philosophical doctrine. This book argues that political conflict is a discursive endeavor deeply implicated in the rational pursuit of

25

theories about how things in the world really are.

‘This book boldly addresses a complex world of political ideas and theories, working to unearth the metaphysical commitments that govern social and political existence. Engaging a universe of discourse that infuses the state, procedural justice, and political conflict, Steinberger generates a remarkable understanding of objectivity and its place in political life.’

The General Will The Evolution of a Concept Edited by James Farr Northwestern University, Illinois

and David Lay Williams DePaul University, Chicago

The sixteen essays of The General Will: The Evolution of a Concept, written by prominent political theorists and philosophers, chronicle the evolution of the general will, which is most centrally associated with the political philosophy of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, from the seventeenth to the twentieth century.

‘An original and wide-ranging inquiry into the general will before, in, and after Rousseau. There is no other work quite like this one, and it fills an important gap in the voluminous scholarly literature on the general will. Professors Farr and Williams have assembled a group of eminent scholars, each of whom contributes an essay remarkable for its range and erudition.’

Political philosophy Zionism and Judaism A New Theory David Novak University of Toronto

This book argues that Zionism is only a coherent political stance when it is intelligently rooted in Judaism, especially in the classical Jewish doctrine of God’s election of the people of Israel and the commandment to them to settle the land of Israel.

‘Anyone who is serious about the idea that God gave Israel the Torah and the land of Israel must read this book by today’s doyen of Jewish philosophical theology. Those who study it will learn immensely from David Novak’s lifetime of learning, and those who differ with his conclusions, or his premises, will be challenged to see if they can do better in addressing one of the great questions facing Judaism today: how the modern state of Israel can thrive as a Jewish, democratic state at peace with its neighbors, its living heritage and itself.’

Constructing Cause in International Relations Richard Ned Lebow King’s College London

Lebow argues that causal inference is always rhetorical in nature and must be judged on grounds of practicality.

Understandings of cause accordingly vary across fields. His new approach builds on general understandings and idiosyncratic features of context to offer an original approach relevant to international relations.

‘Ned Lebow’s new volume is a truly innovative, horizon-expanding and eye-opening work on ‘causation’ that draws political inferences from the history of visual art. The originality of the approach will stimulate new thinking about world politics, and the straightforward prose style and rigorous method of argument will raise the level of discourse in IR and meta-theory debates.’

Philosophy of social science / Philosophy of religion Explaining Social Behavior More Nuts and Bolts for the Social Sciences Second edition Jon Elster Collège de France, Paris

This substantially revised edition of Jon Elster’s acclaimed book exploring the nature of social behavior features a wholly new chapter and a new conclusion. Proposing choice as the central concept of the social sciences, this book will greatly interest upper-level students and undergraduates of political philosophy, economics, psychology and social theory.

‘After donning, for the first edition of this book, his shining analytical armor to illuminate what obscurantists desperately don’t want you to see, Jon Elster is on the attack again. Spurred in equal measure by a ceaseless desire to improve his own analyses and by ‘the alarming rise of nonsense masquerading as scholarship’, he has produced a fortified new edition, adding to and refining the previous material.’

Quantum Mind and Social Science Unifying Physical and Social Ontology Alexander Wendt Ohio State University

This book proposes a quantum physical basis for consciousness and its place in the natural world, and explores the implications of this perspective for the social sciences. Wendt’s argument provides a philosophical basis for human agency through free will, and for a holistic or ‘non-local’ vision of social life.

‘Wendt’s second monograph has been eagerly anticipated. Was it worth the wait? Of course. Beautifully written and painstakingly argued, Quantum Mind and Social Science explores the potential impact that advances in quantum mechanics may have on the social sciences. Notwithstanding the fact that this is probably one of the best introductions to quantum mechanics I have read, the book also raises a series of pressing questions about how a careful engagement with quantum mechanics might alter how we think about social science and social practice … This is a book of speculative grand theorising that is sadly lacking in the social sciences today.’

Behind the Model A Constructive Critique of Economic Modeling Peter Spiegler University of Massachusetts, Amherst

This ambitious book reveals how formal models are constructed in economics.

Ranging across economics, philosophy, and social science methods, and drawing on examples, including the recent financial crisis, Behind the Model will be of interest to anyone who has wondered how economics works – and why it sometimes fails.

‘The 2007–9 global financial crisis and Great Recession demonstrated that the most prestigious economic models were incapable of recognizing, much less preventing, the debacle.

How could this be possible? Peter Spiegler’s critique of mainstream mathematical modeling methodology delivers a compelling explanation.

More important still, Spiegler

advances alternative theoretical and empirical methodologies that are capable of reframing economics as a viable scientific endeavor. Behind the Model is a deeply insightful work that should force all open-minded economists to rethink their most basic presuppositions and practices.’

Reason, Revelation, and Devotion Inference and Argument in Religion William J. Wainwright University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee

Reason, Revelation, and Devotion will appeal to advanced undergraduates and graduate students in philosophy, theology, or religious studies. The author focuses on important features of reasoning, which have been comparatively neglected by philosophers of religion, so it should be appealing to philosophers of religion as well.

‘Bill Wainwright has always been a person who philosophizes with his whole self. Little wonder, then if … he tries to show us how reasoning about what matters most is and ought to be existentially embedded. No surprise, when he makes his cross-cultural case that rational conviction depends not only on logical acumen but on disciplined passions and habits of the heart.’

Also of interest The Digital Humanities A Primer for Students and Scholars Eileen Gardiner Italica Press

and Ronald G. Musto Italica Press

This book introduces readers to the impact of the digital on humanities research. Beginning with definitions and a brief historical survey of the humanities, it examines how humanists have been affected by the digital and how, in turn, they shape it to research, organize, analyze and publish their work.

‘Deep scholarship and lively engagement with a vast range of contemporary innovations animate this concise, reliable, indeed almost indispensable book.’

Textbook

An Introduction to Indian Philosophy Roy W. Perrett University of Melbourne

This introduction is thematically structured, wide-ranging and philosophically rigorous, providing the technical details of Indian philosophical arguments and their theoretical motivations, without being too technical for beginners. Including a glossary, guide to Sanskrit pronunciation and translated texts, it is an essential resource for beginners and advanced students of Indian philosophy.

Advance praise: ‘This is one of the best introductory books on Indian philosophy that I have read. It is even-handed in addressing the pros and cons of each problem, it is sophisticated and up to date, and it places issues of Indian philosophy in the context of the current Western philosophical tradition. It will be suitable for undergraduate philosophy majors and minors, and also for graduate students taking a first course on Indian philosophy.’
