Naturalism is widely regarded as the dominant philosophical
worldview in the West. The prestige of science and the power of
technology have driven naturalism to prominence, even as deep
questions mount on all sides.
In this volume of all new essays, prominent philosophers consider a
wide variety of challenges to naturalism, proposing improved
defenses and novel developments in this influential worldview. Some
essays question whether naturalism is a unified philosophy, and try
to determine how one or another variety of naturalism has an
advantage. Other essays defend naturalism's approaches to religion,
the mind, experience, morality, and society. To ensure that
naturalism has a strong future, this volume's authors are
determined to help reformulate its principles for the 21st century.
Among the contributors are Mario Bunge (McGill University), Paul
Kurtz (Center for Inquiry and State University of New York at
Buffalo), John Lachs (Vanderbilt University), Isaac Levi (Columbia
University), Joseph Margolis (Temple University), Nicholas Rescher
(University of Pittsburgh), John R. Shook (Center for Inquiry), and
other leading philosophers.
