This book stands in the tradition of past and current common sense
philosophers, like Reid, Berkeley, Sidgwick, Moore, Conant, Slote,
Bogdan, and Lemos, who defend common sense, yet it goes beyond
their accounts by not only defending common sense but also
considering what common sense means. Besides giving a historical
exegesis of common sense in Thomas Reid and showing parallels in
Austin, Searle, Moore, and Wittgenstein, common sense is also
discovered in Hume's An Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals
and in Kant's Critique of Pure Reason. It is made clear how far
common sense generalizes, whether proverbs are a form of common
sense, and whether common sense can be found in the common
knowledge assumption in game theory. Also, folk psychology as a
common sense psychology is discussed. In its account of common
sense, this book draws on research from history of philosophy,
philosophy of mind, and science, linguistics, and game theory to
substantiate its position.
