Colin McGinn - Problems in Philosophy: The Limits of Inquiry
Published: 1993-12-08 | ISBN: 1557864756, 1557864748 | PDF | 172 pages | 16 MB
This advanced introductory text offers a synoptic view of philosophical inquiry, discussing such topics as consciousness, the self, meaning, free will, the a priori, and knowledge. The emphasis is on the fundamental intractability of these questions, and a theory is proposed as to why the human mind has so much difficulty in resolving them. This theory turns upon a naturalistic picture of the scope and limits of human intelligence.
