Carefully packed and quickly sent. 201607545as While Thesis/Explanation is a complex book on a complicated subject its main thrust can be distilled into two overlapping arguments: that behavior, whether animal or human,is purposive, involving some sort of teleology. And thus, secondly, that it cannot be reduced down to a putatively ‘lower level’ of explanation (whether mechanical, chemical or operant). Taylor’s engagement with these two concepts - teleology and reductionism - runs throughout the book and the majority of Explanation is devoted to analyzing these concepts from a variety of different angles. While there are a number of ways that Taylor does this,including a critique of ‘theory language’ and ‘observation language’, in-depth criticisms of specific psychological experiments and deconstructions of learning theory, the philosophical critique of reductionism in favor of teleology is developed in the first part of Explanation.
