Culture and Cultural Entities provides an original philosophical
analysis of the nature and explanation of cultural phenomena, with
special attention to ontology and methodology. It addresses in
depth such topics as: the relation between physical and biological
nature and cultural phenomena; the analysis of intentionality; the
nature and explanation of action; causality; causal explanation and
the unity of science; theories of language; historicity; animal and
human intelligence; psychological and social phenomena; technology
and evolution. Its approach features a form of non-reductive
materialism, examines a wide range of views, and is highly
readable, making it suitable for professionals, advanced
undergraduate and graduate students, and an informed general
audience. A new chapter was added to give a sense of pertinent
trends since the appearance of the first edition, particularly with
respect to the history of philosophy, pragmatism, the unity of
science, and evolution. The unity, scope, and simplicity of the
theory are well-regarded.
