Recenzii
Elli's book is admirable for its rigour and its bid to blend the thought of Levinas with some recent ideas from analytic philosophy.
[A] wonderful book.
Fiona Ellis provides a book that is extremely rare. For starters, her text bridges the gap between 'analytic' philosophy and 'continental' philosophy by considering metaethical theories in both camps. Her text similarly bridges the gap between 'philosophy' and 'theology' by putting these disciplines in conversation. Third, Ellis does all of this in remarkably clear and accessible prose. The clarity of Ellis' writing is beneficial given that she wades into the conceptually murky and hostile terrain of contemporary metaethics and argues that one can reasonably endorse a form of naturalism in which God plays a substantial metaethical role.
...it is generally held that naturalism and religious belief are not compatible. Nature is what the natural sciences say that it is and with this declaration comes a conclusion that nature is thereby disenchanted. It is to the great credit of this remarkable book that this mutual incompatibility is challenged by Fiona Ellis and a powerful argument advanced for a religious indeed, theistic naturalism.
In this rich, rigorous and invigorating book, Fiona Ellis subtly decommissions the concepts of 'nature' and 'naturalism' as weapons in the arsenal of her atheistic opponents.
Fiona Ellis offers a brilliant assessment of both the nature and justification of naturalism as well as providing us with a nuanced new look at the naturalism-theism debate . . . I wholeheartedly recommend this book to any of the many philosophers at work on naturalism today and especially to those who are exercised by the debate between naturalism and theism.
Ellis's book is one that can be profitably read by anyone who works in meta-ethics, philosophy of religion, theology, and the debates surrounding naturalism. Indeed, one of the most impressive things about the book is the author's range of interests and ability to illuminatingly integrate important ideas drawn from recent English-speaking philosophy, Continental philosophy, and Christian theology. All this makes for a richly rewarding text that should help to shape future discussions on naturalism and its relation to theism and ethics.
This volume should be useful in larger collections . . . Recommended. Graduate students and researchers/faculty.
ambitious and thought-provoking . . . God, Value, and Nature thus achieves a remarkable goal: it offers reconciliation between theists and naturalists, yet without forcing either side to give up any of their dearest beliefs . . . Ellis' book is not only a fine example of first-rate philosophy, but also of a first-rate philosophical attitude.
