  • - Essays in Philosophy and Psychoanalysis
    by Jonathan Lear
    £34.99

    Can reason absorb the psyche's nonrational elements into a conception of the fully realized human being?

    Aristotle was one of the greatest logicians. He not only devised the first system of formal logic, he also raised many fundamental problems in the philosophy of logic. Dr Lear shows how Aristotle's discussion of logical consequence, validity and proof can contribute to topical debates in the philosophy of logic. No background knowledge of Aristotle is assumed.

    by Jonathan Lear
    £18.49

    Plenty Coups, last great Chief of the Crow Nation, said, "When the buffalo went away the hearts of my people fell to the ground and they could not lift them up again. After this nothing happened." In Lear's view, this story raises an ethical question that challenges us all: how should one face the possibility that one's culture might collapse?
