Paperback. Condition: New. It is natural to think that self-knowledge is gained through introspection, whereby we somehow peer inward and detect our mental states. However, so-called transparency theories emphasize our capacity to peer outward at the world, hence beyond our minds, in the pursuit of self-knowledge. For all their popularity in recent decades, transparency theories have also met with myriad challenges. This volume presents new perspectives on transparency-theoretic approaches to self-knowledge. It addresses many under-explored dimensions of transparency theories and considers their wider implications for epistemology, philosophy of mind, and psychology. Some chapters in this volume aim to deepen our understanding of key themes at the heart of transparency theories, such as the ways in which transparent self-knowledge is properly "first-personal" or "non-alienated". Other chapters offer arguments for extending transparency accounts of self-knowledge to different kinds of mental states and phenomena, such as memory, actions, social groups, and credences. Finally, there are chapters in the volume which discuss interesting relationships between transparency theories, projection, second-order sincerity, and Moore's Paradox.This book will appeal to scholars and advanced students working in epistemology, philosophy of mind, and psychology.…

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - This book examines whether human beings should reflect on, and hence come to know and understand, their own commitments- those beliefs, desires, and intentions that one holds and defends on the basis of one's judgments about the true and the good.It begins by distinguishing committed attitudes from non-committed attitudes and addressing metaphysical concerns about their distinctive features, paving the way for an in-depth inquiry into why reflection on the former might matter. The author critiques prevailing theories that tie reflection on one's commitments to phenomena such as rationality, inferential cognition, intentional action, self-regulation, and more. Thereafter, the book argues that reflective commitment matters for safeguarding oneself against manipulation, enabling interpersonal reasoning, and maintaining coherent agency.This work is indispensable for graduate students and researchers in analytic epistemology and the philosophy of mind with an interest in self-knowledge and related issues, as well as interdisciplinary scholars in psychology who study self-deception, inference, and attitude ascriptions.…
