The Critical Margolis
$30.00
Pragmatism's revival since 1980 can be credited to several thinkers, among them the longtime professor of philosophy at Temple University, Joseph Margolis. The Critical Margolis collects within one volume more than a dozen of his essential writings, allowing readers to become familiar with his important contributions to core areas of philosophy, where he has controversially challenged scientistic, analytic, and continental traditions.
During a period when sharp divides animate intellectual debates-realism or idealism, matter or mind, causality or freedom, machines or persons, facts or values, cognition or emotion, and the like-Margolis dissolves false dichotomies and reconstructs philosophy itself. Prominent philosophers of the second half of the twentieth century, from Quine, Danto, and Putnam to Derrida, Rorty, and Brandom, along with a host of similarly significant thinkers, are targets of Margolis's critiques.
If there could be a comprehensive volume of pragmatism for today and tomorrow, The Critical Margolis shall serve.
