The essays in this Festschrift are celebrations of the human mind
in its manifold expressions - philosophical, scientific,
historical, aesthetic, political - and in its various modes -
analytical, systematic, critical, imaginative, constructive. They
are offered to Robert S. Cohen on the occasion of his 70th
birthday, in acknowledgment of his own extra ordinary participation
in the life of the mind, and of his unfailing encouragement and
facilitation of the participation of others. It is fitting that
these volumes should appear in the Boston Studies in the Philosophy
of Science, the series which he co-founded so many years ago, and
of which he has been the principal editor for more than three
decades. (These are perhaps the only volumes of that series which
he has not edited or co-edited ) The three volumes that constitute
this Festschrift cover the range of Cohen's interests as a
philosopher/scientistlhumanist, as they also represent the spectrum
of his professional and personal friendships. (Regretfully, the
editors could not include contributions from more of them here. )
The first volume centers around the philosophy and history of the
natural sciences and mathematics; Volume Two collects essays
related to Marxism and science, philosophy of culture and the
social sciences; and the third volume focuses on science and the
humanistic understanding in art, epistemology, religion and
ethics."
