Third edition Daniel Hausman

University of Wisconsin, Madison

KEY REFERENCE

Michael McPherson Spencer Foundation, Chicago

and Debra Satz Stanford University, California

This third edition of an influential text shows how understanding moral philosophy can improve economic analysis, how moral philosophy can benefit from economists’ analytical tools, and how economic analysis and moral philosophy together can inform public policy. Extensively updated, with numerous examples, it addresses contemporary topics such as behavioral economics and growing income and wealth inequality.

‘The new edition of the book by Hausman, McPherson, and Satz is a rich and needed reading of economic analysis from the viewpoint of moral philosophy. Economists, if they reflect on these issues at all, think of their work as akin to physics; we find the pre-existing laws which govern the economic world. They can be considered simply as factual relations interesting in their own right; they can be used, as electricity, to serve human ends. What the authors demonstrate by detailed examination is that the analysis itself is shot through with normative and philosophical considerations. Any thoughtful reader will find his or her presuppositions challenged.’

development of Freud’s thinking and presents a radically new way of reading him. He appropriates insights from feminism, pre-Oedipal theory, and clinical experience with non-neurotic patients to transform our picture of the founder of the field. When one focuses on early development, the maternal presence and the repudiation of femininity, Freud no longer appears as another dead white male, but as a vital thinker whose ideas have important consequences for the contemporary world.’

Christine Anzieu-Premmereur, Director of the Columbia University Psychoanalytic Center’s Parent-Infant Program, and member of the New York Psychoanalytic Institute and of the Société Psychanalytique de Paris.

Freud

Edited by Lawrence Nolan

The life and work of Sigmund Freud continue to fascinate general and professional readers alike. Joel Whitebook here presents the first major biography of Freud since the last century, taking into account recent developments in psychoanalytic theory and practice, gender studies, philosophy, cultural theory, and more. Offering a radically new portrait of the creator of psychoanalysis, this book explores the man in all his complexity alongside an interpretation of his theories that cuts through the stereotypes that surround him. The development of Freud’s thinking is addressed not only in the context of his personal life, but also in that of society and culture at large, while the impact of his thinking on subsequent issues of psychoanalysis, philosophy, and social theory is fully examined. Whitebook demonstrates that declarations of Freud’s obsolescence are premature, and, with his clear and engaging style, brings this vivid figure to life in compelling and readable fashion.

‘This is a brilliant book that combines psychoanalytic thinking and intellectual history to demonstrate that Freud remains central to current debates not only in psychoanalysis, but also in cultural theory, philosophy and gender studies. With his expertise in psychoanalytic theory, Joel Whitebook elucidates the

Plotinus and Epicurus Matter, Perception, Pleasure Edited by Angela Longo Università degli Studi dell’Aquila, Italy

and Daniela Patrizia Taormina Università degli Studi di Roma ‘Tor Vergata’

This collection of essays proposes a new way of understanding themes such as matter, knowledge, human happiness and the gods in Epicurus and Plotinus.

It argues that Platonism not only vehemently criticised Epicurus’ theory of human and divine pleasure, but also borrowed some concepts from him.

‘The volume has a clear and comprehensive stage-setting introduction by the editors and a full biography. There is hardly a sentence in the Enneads that is not rooted in the history of philosophy as Plotinus knew it. This book s a valuable addition to the scholarship seeking to illuminate this background.’

Plato’s Symposium

often light-hearted way, and a literary masterpiece, it has exerted an influence that goes well beyond the confines of philosophy. The essays in this volume, by leading scholars, offer detailed analyses of all parts of the work, focusing on the central and much-debated theme of erōs or ‘human desire’ – which can refer both to physical desire or desire for happiness. They reveal thematic continuities between the prologue and the various speeches as well as between the speeches themselves, and present a rich collection of contrasting yet complementary readings of Diotima’s speech. The volume will be invaluable for classicists and philosophers alike, and for all who are interested in one of Plato’s most fascinating and challenging dialogues.

Ancient philosophy / Medieval philosophy / Early modern philosophy / Eighteenth-century philosophy Proclus: Commentary on Plato’s Timaeus Volume 6: Book 5: Proclus on the Gods of Generation and the Creation of Humans Proclus Edited by Harold Tarrant University of New South Wales, Sydney

Proclus’ Commentary on the dialogue Timaeus by Plato (d.347 BC), written in the fifth century AD, is arguably the most important commentary on a text of Plato, offering unparalleled insights into eight centuries of Platonic interpretation.

It has had an enormous influence on subsequent Plato scholarship. This edition nevertheless offers the first new translation of the work for nearly two centuries, building on significant recent advances in scholarship by Neoplatonic commentators. It will provide an invaluable record of early interpretations of Plato’s dialogue, while also presenting Proclus’ own views on the meaning and significance of Platonic philosophy.

The book presents Proclus’ unrepentant account of a multitude of divinities involved with the creation of mortal life, the supreme creator’s delegation to them of the creation of human life, and the manner in which they took the immortal life principle from him and wove it together with our mortal parts to produce human beings.

Hampden-Sydney College, Virginia

George Berkeley (1685–1753), Bishop of Cloyne, was an Irish philosopher and divine who pursued a number of grand causes, contributing to the fields of economics, mathematics, political theory and theology. He pioneered the theory of ‘immaterialism’, and his work ranges over many philosophical issues that remain of interest today. This volume offers a complete and accurate edition of Berkeley’s extant correspondence, including letters written both by him and to him, supplemented by extensive explanatory and critical notes. Alexander Pope famously said ‘To Berkeley every virtue under heaven’, and a careful reading of the letters reveals a figure worthy of admiration, sheds new light on his personal and intellectual life, and provides insight into the broad historical and philosophical currents of his time.

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 final system of Right was published.

The material covers such topics as the central role of freedom, the social contract, the nature of sovereignty, the means for achieving international peace, property rights in relation to the very possibility of human agency, the general prohibition of rebellion, and Kant’s philosophical defense of the French Revolution.

The Making of Friedrich Nietzsche The Quest for Identity, 1844– 1869 Daniel Blue

This original biography of Friedrich Nietzsche’s early life radically reconceives Nietzsche’s youth, recontextualising his early essays and the works he went on to write later in life. It will greatly appeal to students and scholars of Nietzsche, as well as the interested general reader.

‘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.’

Nietzsche: On the Genealogy of Morality and Other Writings Third edition Friedrich Nietzsche Edited by Keith Ansell-Pearson University of Warwick

Review of previous edition: ‘The clarity of the … translation and the supporting apparatus (chronology, further reading, biographical synopses, and index) make this an excellent edition for student use, as indeed it is intended. … what makes [it] particularly useful is the inclusion of material from other works by Nietzsche to which the Genealogy refers, such as Human, All Too Human, Daybreak, Beyond Good and Evil, and The Gay Science, as well as … the early texts, ‘The Greek State’ and ‘Homer’s Contest’.’

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.

‘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.’

Dance to the Tune of Life Biological Relativity Denis Noble University of Oxford

In this thought-provoking book, Denis Noble formulates the theory of biological relativity, emphasising that living organisms operate at multiple levels of complexity and must therefore be analysed from a multi-scale, relativistic perspective. Noble explains that all biological processes operate by means of molecular, cellular and organismal networks. The interactive nature of these fundamental processes is at the core of biological relativity and, as such, challenges simplified molecular

reductionism. Noble shows that such an integrative view emerges as the necessary consequence of the rigorous application of mathematics to biology.

Drawing on his pioneering work in the mathematical physics of biology, he shows that what emerges is a deeply humane picture of the role of the organism in constraining its chemistry, including its genes, to serve the organism as a whole, especially in the interaction with its social environment.

This humanistic, holistic approach challenges the common gene-centred view held by many in modern biology and culture.

‘Among its many merits, this remarkable book deserves to become a classic text in the philosophy of science. Almost alone among philosophers of science, Noble is a practising scientist; and unusually among practising scientists, he is an accomplished philosopher. His book brings out, with unparalleled clarity, how the scientific endeavour involves not only empirical inquiry but also conceptual structure. Noble shows how, on the negative side, popular presentations of sound biological results may be vitiated by bad metaphysics, and how, on the positive side, science and philosophy may extend the boundaries of knowledge by a unified epistemology. He ends, however, with a salutary warning that there may well be a limit to the human capacity to know the answers to ultimate questions.’

A Fortunate Universe Life in a Finely Tuned Cosmos Geraint F. Lewis University of Sydney

and Luke A. Barnes University of Sydney

Foreword by Brian Schmidt Australian National University, Canberra

Over the last forty years, scientists have uncovered evidence that if the Universe had been forged with even slightly different properties, life as we know it – and life as we can imagine it – would be impossible. Join us on a journey through how we understand the Universe, from its most basic particles and forces, to planets, stars and galaxies, and back through cosmic history to the birth of the cosmos. Conflicting notions about our place in the Universe are defined, defended and critiqued from scientific, philosophical and religious viewpoints. The authors’ engaging and witty style addresses what fine-tuning might mean for the future of physics and the search for the ultimate laws of nature. Tackling difficult questions and providing thought-provoking answers, this volumes challenges us to consider our place in the cosmos, regardless of our initial convictions.

‘My colleagues, Geraint and Luke, in A Fortunate Universe, take you on a tour of the Cosmos in all of its glory, and all of its mystery. You will see that humanity appears to be part of a remarkable set of circumstances involving a special time around a special planet, which orbits a special star, all within a specially constructed Universe. It is these sets of conditions that have allowed humans to ponder our place in space and time. I have no idea why we are here, but I do know the Universe is beautiful. A Fortunate Universe captures the mysterious beauty of the Cosmos in a way that all can share.’

Reduction and Emergence in Science and Philosophy Carl Gillett Northern Illinois University

This book analyses the ongoing scientific debates surrounding reduction and emergence, arguing that these debates can be empirically resolved. Providing

new theoretical frameworks from which to understand these debates, this book will be valuable reading for researchers and advanced students of the philosophy of science and metaphysics.

‘This impressive book by Carl Gillett offers a new perspective on an old idea, emergence, an idea that has refused to go away in spite of the many damaging criticisms over the years. It is noteworthy that the concept has found many champions among the practicing scientists working in fields such as physics, life science, cognitive neuroscience, and systems theory. Gillett’s account is based in a deep knowledge of the history of emergence in both philosophy and science, presenting a formidable challenge to the critics and skeptics in the field. It should help to elevate the debates to a new level. Highly recommended to all who are interested in mind, philosophy of mind, and philosophy of science.’

Philosophers believe that Plato’s view was disproved by Edmund Gettier in 1963. But – this book argues – philosophers do not yet understand Gettier’s result, let alone knowledge. A new approach is proposed: in a sense, Plato can now embrace Gettier.

Ethics in the Conflicts of Modernity An Essay on Desire, Practical Reasoning, and Narrative Alasdair MacIntyre University of Notre Dame, Indiana

Alasdair MacIntyre explores the central philosophical, political and moral claims of modernity and argues that a proper understanding of human goods requires a rejection of these claims. This significant book by a distinguished philosopher will interest a wide readership in moral and political philosophy.

‘For readers of Alasdair MacIntyre who have wondered how the views of his After Virtue, Whose Justice? Which Rationality? and Dependent Rational Animals hang together, this book is as good a response as we could have hoped for. In Ethics in the Conflicts of Modernity, we see the fundamental continuity of the ideas that MacIntyre has developed and defended over the past forty years. It is a canonical statement of MacIntyre’s mature views in moral, political, and social philosophy.’

differs from that of the nineteenth century.

Revenge and Social Conflict

‘We all want to end world poverty and misery. But who is this ‘we,’ and who put us in charge? This brilliant volume shows how the humanitarian movement, despite progress against the old racism and colonialism, remains too often oblivious to who has the power and who does not. As a result, it argues, paternalism is alive and well. The logic of humanitarian action can overwhelm the best of anti-paternalist intentions. The volume offers no easy answers but it will leave the reader with a greatly enriched understanding of the values of dignity and autonomy for every individual everywhere.’

This book fills that lacuna by showing how the medieval thinker set his treatment of war and peace within a comprehensive philosophical/religious outlook.

This book elaborates an appealing model of marriage, rooted in love, for same-sex and different-sex couples, that doesn’t involve the state.
