Philosophy as a humanistic discipline[electronic resource] /Bernard Williams ; selected, edited, and with an introduction by A.W. Moore. - Princeton, N.J. ;Princeton University Press,2008. - 1 online resource (227 p.)

Originally published: 2006.

Includes bibliographical references.

Preface; Introduction; PART ONE: Metaphysics and Epistemology; ONE: Tertullian's Paradox (1955); TWO: Metaphysical Arguments (1957); THREE: Pleasure and Belief (1959); FOUR: Knowledge and Reasons (1972); FIVE: Identity and Identities (1995); PART TWO: Ethics; SIX: The Primacy of Dispositions (1987); SEVEN: The Structure of Hare's Theory (1988); EIGHT: Subjectivism and Toleration (1992); NINE: The Actus Reus of Dr. Caligari (1994); TEN: Values, Reasons, and the Theory of Persuasion (1996); ELEVEN: Moral Responsibility and Political Freedom (1997).

What can--and what can't--philosophy do? What are its ethical risks--and its possible rewards? How does it differ from science? In Philosophy as a Humanistic Discipline, Bernard Williams addresses these questions and presents a striking vision of philosophy as fundamentally different from science in its aims and methods even though there is still in philosophy "something that counts as getting it right." Written with his distinctive combination of rigor, imagination, depth, and humanism, the book amply demonstrates why Williams was one of the greatest philosophers of the twentieth century. Spa.
