A Cultivated Reason: An Essay on Hume and HumeanismChristopher Williams
ISBN: 9780271018201
Publisher: Pennsylvania State Univ Pr Publication Date: 1999 Binding: Hardcover As Plato's tripartite division of the soul, Descartes's criterion of clear and distinct ideas, and Kant's notion of the categorical imperative attest, philosophy has traditionally been wedded to rationalism and its "intellectualist" view of persons. In this book Christopher Williams seeks to wean his fellow philosophers away from an overly rationalistic self-understanding by using resources that are available within the philosophical tradition itself, including some that anticipate strands of Nietzsche's thought. The book begins by developing Hume's critique of rationalism, with reference especially to the section of the Treatise that deals with the continuing existence of bodies (an argument that subverts intellectualist criteria by attempting to satisfy them) and to his neglected essay "The Sceptic" where Hume reveals the importance of our embodiment through a comic portrayal of philosophers' efforts to "correct our sentiments". Then it moves on to ward off charges of irrationalism by showing that, although our powers of self-correction are more limited than the rationalist thinks they are, a Humean position is able both to sustain a commitment to reflection and to sensitize us to a version of irrationalism, manifest in monotheistic theologies, that is otherwise difficult to detect. The book concludes, more speculatively, with a comparison of persons to artworks in order to show how our aesthetic dimension is the source of some of the normative work previously assigned to rationalist reason. Ranging as it does across subfields from epistemology and history of philosophy to ethics and aesthetics, A Cultivated Reason should appeal to a wide audience of philosophers and to scholarsin other fields as well.

Terminus Brain: The Environmental Threat to Human IntelligenceChristopher Williams
ISBN: 9780304338573
Publisher: Cassell Publication Date: 1997 Binding: Softcover The human brain is now at risk from itself. Like a terminus, it is an end-point of our environmental mistakes but it is also a starting point both for those mistakes and for correcting them. It is victim, perpetrator and healer of the adverse environmental change that impairs intelligence. Logically, protecting the brain should be an environmental priority -- but it is not. Millions of people are suffering a decline in intelligence due to pollution, the absence of vital environmental micro-nutrients and a degraded psycho-social environment. This decline can range from severe intellectual disability to a spectrum of mid 'sub-clinical' dysfunctions that most of a population may experience in some way. In response, the US Congress declared the 1990s the 'Decade of the Brain' but this reflects only narrow, rich-nation priorities. Terminus Brain offers, for the first time, a comprehensive global picture. It is a major interdisciplinary work, ranging across the medical, social and environmental sciences, evolutionary theory, disability studies, education, law and ethics. |
