Where does philosophy, the oldest academic subject, stand at the
beginning of the new millennium? This remarkable volume brings
together leading figures from most major branches of the discipline
to offer answers. What remains of the 'linguistic turn' in
twentieth-century philosophy? How should moral philosophy respond
to and incorporate developments in empirical psychology? Where
might Continental and Anglophone feminist theory profitably
interact? How has our understanding of ancient philosophy been
affected by the emergence of analytic philosophy? Where does the
mind-body problem stand today? What role must value judgments play
in science? Do Marx, Nietzsche, or Freud matter in the 21st
century? These and many other questions at the cutting edge of the
discipline are addressed by distinguished philosophers from
Australia, Britain, Canada, and the United States. They aim not
only to stimulate philosophical debate, but to introduce those in
cognate disciplines--biology, classics, economics, history, law,
linguistics, literary studies, mathematics, philosophy, physics,
political science, psychology, among others-- to what is happening
in contemporary philosophy. In a substantial introduction, the
editor gives an overview of the state of philosophy today and helps
orient non-philosophers.
