The Bloomsbury Handbook of Pragmatism de Professor Sami Pihlström

The Bloomsbury Handbook of Pragmatism: Bloomsbury Handbooks

Editat de Professor Sami Pihlström
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 20 mar 2024
Pragmatism provides not just a theoretical perspective on science and inquiry, but ways of being in the world, of knowing the reality we inhabit. Approaching this philosophical tradition as a diverse set of philosophies that it is, The Bloomsbury Handbook of Pragmatism introduces many of the ideas and debates at the centre of the field today. Focusing on issues in different subject areas, this up-to-date handbook covers current research in aesthetics, economics, education, ethics, history, law, metaphysics, politics, race, religion, science and technology, language, and social theory. Supported by an introduction to research methods and problems, as well as a guide to past and future directions in the field, chapters are enhanced by a 'how to use' guide and glossary. Now expanded, this edition includes new chapters on pragmatism and various global and regional philosophical traditions, as well as feminism and environmental philosophy. Showing where important work continues to be done, the tensions that exist, and, most valuably, the exciting new directions the field is taking, The Bloomsbury Handbook of Pragmatism advances our understanding of the role of pragmatism in 21st century philosophy.

Recenzii

The Bloomsbury Handbook of Pragmatism demonstrates the enduring relevance of philosophical pragmatism. Its focus is on pragmatism as a contemporary practice, not just a historical phenomenon. As such, it is an excellent resource for scholars and students, both those new to pragmatism and those who are currently working in the area. The chapters are well-written, informative, and insightful.
The new, expanded edition of The Bloomsbury Handbook of Pragmatism nicely rejuvenates what was already an impressive volume. With carefully chosen, often timely topics, it enables the reader to quickly get up to speed on the latest research in pragmatism.
This is a welcomed, well-revised edition of already the best handbook of American pragmatism. Discussing both the theory and especially the broad applications of pragmatism, its contributors are among pragmatism's leading scholars and interpreters. Both newcomers to pragmatism and advanced scholars will find it highly valuable.
