First Published in 1984. This book was born out of a disagreement
among friends. Paul Rabinow, attending a seminar given in 1979 by
Hubert Dreyfus and John Searle which concerned, among other things,
Michel Foucault, objected to the characterization of Foucault as a
typical " structuralist." This challenge stirred a discussion that
led to the proposal of a joint article which soon became a
medium-length book.
Heidegger's Being and Time: Critical Essays provides a variety of
recent studies of Heidegger's most important work. Twelve prominent
scholars, representing diverse nationalities, generations, and
interpretive approaches deal with general methodological and
ontological questions, particular issues in Heidegger's text, and
the relation between Being and Time and Heidegger's later thought.
All of the essays presented in this volume were never before
available in an English-language anthology. Two of the essays have
never before been published in any language (Dreyfus and Guignon);
three of the essays have never been published in English before
(Grondin, Kisiel, and ThomS), and two of the essays provide
previews of works in progress by major scholars (Dreyfus and
Kisiel).

Internet is een van de eerste boeken waarin het filosofische
inzicht -van Plato tot Kierkegaard - betrokken wordt op het debat
over de mogelijkheden en onmogelijkheden van het internet. Dreyfus
laat zien dat de onstoffelijke, 'vrij zwevende' websurfer zijn
oorsprong vindt in Descartes' scheiding van geest en lichaam, en
hoe Kierkegaards inzichten in de opkomst van het moderne
leespubliek vooruitlopen op de nieuwsgierige, maar elk risico
vermijdende internet-junkie. Uitgaande van recente onderzoeken naar
het isolement dat veel internetgebruikers ervaren, toont Dreyfus
aan hoe het internet, door zijn nadruk op prive-ervaringen,
gebruikers berooft van wezenlijke, belichaamde vermogens zoals
vertrouwen, stemmingen en betrokkenheid bij met anderen gedeelde
lokale aangelegenheden. Internet is verplichte kost voor iedereen
die on line is en is geinteressseerd in onze plaats in de
'e-revolutie'.
Drawing on a diverse array of thinkers from Plato to Kierkegaard, On the Internet is one of the first books to bring philosophical insight to the debate on how far the internet can and cannot take us. Dreyfus shows us the roots of the disembodied, free floating web surfer in Descartes' separation of mind and body, and how Kierkegaard's insights into the birth of the modern reading public anticipate the news-hungry, but disinterested risk avoiding internet junkie. Drawing on recent studies of the isolation experienced by many internet users, Dreyfus shows how the internet's privatisation of experience ignores essential human capacities such as trust, moods, risk, shared local concerns and commitment. On the Internet is essential reading for anyone on line and all those interested in our place in the e-revolution. eBook available with sample pages: 0203187873

Can the internet solve the problem of mass education, and bring
human beings to a new level of community? Drawing on a diverse
array of thinkers from Plato to Kierkegaard, On the Internet argues
that there is much in common between the disembodied, free floating
web and Descartes' separation of mind and body. Hubert Dreyfus also
shows how Kierkegaard's insights into the origins of a
media-obsessed public anticipate the web surfer, blogger and chat
room. Drawing on studies of the isolation experienced by many
internet users and the insights of philosopher such as Descartes
and Kierkegaard, Dreyfus shows how the internet's privatisation of
experience ignores essential human capacities such as trust, moods,
risk, shared local concerns and commitment. The second edition
includes a brand new chapter on 'Second Life' and is revised and
updated throughout.

For fifty years Hubert Dreyfus has addressed an astonishing range
of issues in the fields of phenomenology, existentialism, cognitive
science, and the philosophical study of mind. Dreyfus has inspired
a whole generation of philosophers as he has creatively drawn on
and clearly articulated the seminal works of thinkers like
Kierkegaard, Husserl, Heidegger, Merleau-Ponty and Foucault. This
volume presents a selection of Dreyfus's most influential essays on
mind and action. The book begins with a model of skillful engaged
human action, which informs much of Dreyfus's philosophy, and was
developed in collaboration with Stuart Dreyfus. The volume then
presents articles developing a critique of the representational
model of the mind in analytical philosophy of mind and mainstream
cognitive science. Dreyfus argues that representational models of
mind offer an impoverished and distorting account of human
engagement with the world. The chapters show this by addressing
issues in philosophy of mind and the cognitive sciences through the
skill model.
Being-in-the-World is a guide to one of the most influential
philosophical works of this century: Division I of Part One of
Being and Time, where Martin Heidegger works out an original and
powerful account of being-in-the-world which he then uses to ground
a profound critique of traditional ontology and epistemology.
Hubert Dreyfus's commentary opens the way for a new appreciation of
this difficult philosopher, revealing a rigorous and illuminating
vocabulary that is indispensable for talking about the phenomenon
of world.The publication of Being and Time in 1927 turned the
academic world on its head. Since then it has become a touchstone
for philosophers as diverse as Marcuse, Sartre, Foucault, and
Derrida who seek an alternative to the rationalist Cartesian
tradition of western philosophy. But Heidegger's text is
notoriously dense, and his language seems to consist of
unnecessarily barbaric neologisms; to the neophyte and even to
those schooled in Heidegger thought, the result is often
incomprehensible.Dreyfus's approach to this daunting book is
straightforward and pragmatic. He explains the text by frequent
examples drawn from everyday life, and he skillfully relates
Heidegger's ideas to the questions about being and mind that have
preoccupied a generation of cognitive scientists and philosophers
of mind.Hubert L. Dreyfus is Professor of Philosophy at the
University of California, Berkeley.

Argues that human beings are at their best not when they are
engaged in abstract reflection, but when they are intensely
involved in changing the taken-for-granted, everyday practices in
some domain of their culture-that is, when they are making history.
Disclosing New Worlds calls for a recovery of a way of being that
has always characterized human life at its best. The book argues
that human beings are at their best not when they are engaged in
abstract reflection, but when they are intensely involved in
changing the taken-for-granted, everyday practices in some domain
of their culture-that is, when they are making history.
History-making, in this account, refers not to wars and transfers
of political power, but to changes in the way we understand and
deal with ourselves. The authors identify entrepreneurship,
democratic action, and the creation of solidarity as the three
major arenas in which people make history, and they focus on three
prime methods of history-making-reconfiguration,
cross-appropriation, and articulation.
As this book makes clear, current use of data structures such as
frames, scripts, and stereotypes in psychology, artificial
intelligence, and all the other disciplines now grouped together as
Cognitive Science develop ideas already explored by Husserl who
believed that the analysis of mental representations was the proper
subject of philosophy, psychology, and other disciplines that deal
with the mind.This new anthology will serve as an ideal
introduction to phenomenology for analytic philosophers, both as a
text and as the single most useful source book on Husserl for
cognitive scientists.Hubert L. Dreyfus is Professor of Philosophy
at the University of California at Berkeley. He is author of the
best-selling and controversial book, What Computers Can't Do.

This volume presents a selection of Hubert Dreyfus's pioneering
work in bringing phenomenology and existentialism to bear on the
philosophical and scientific study of the mind. Each of the
thirteen essays interprets, develops, and extends the insights of
his predecessors working in the European philosophical tradition.
One of Dreyfus' central contributions to reading the historical
canon of philosophy comes from his recognition that great
philosophers help us to understand the "background practices" of a
culture - the practices that shape and embody our most basic
understanding of ourselves and the things and situations we
encounter in our world. Background practices are all too often
overlooked completely, or else their importance is misunderstood.
Each chapter in this volume shows in one way or another how a broad
range of philosophical topics can only be properly understood when
we recognize how they are grounded in the background practices that
shape our lives and give meaning to our activities, our tasks, our
normative commitments, our aims and our goals.
When it was first published in 1972, Hubert Dreyfus's manifesto
on the inherent inability of disembodied machines to mimic higher
mental functions caused an uproar in the artificial intelligence
community. The world has changed since then. Today it is clear that
"good old-fashioned AI," based on the idea of using symbolic
representations to produce general intelligence, is in decline
(although several believers still pursue its pot of gold), and the
focus of the Al community has shifted to more complex models of the
mind. It has also become more common for AI researchers to seek out
and study philosophy. For this edition of his now classic book,
Dreyfus has added a lengthy new introduction outlining these
changes and assessing the paradigms of connectionism and neural
networks that have transformed the field.At a time when researchers
were proposing grand plans for general problem solvers and
automatic translation machines, Dreyfus predicted that they would
fail because their conception of mental functioning was naive, and
he suggested that they would do well to acquaint themselves with
modern philosophical approaches to human beings. What Computers
Can't Do was widely attacked but quietly studied. Dreyfus's
arguments are still provocative and focus our attention once again
on what it is that makes human beings unique.Hubert L. Dreyfus, who
is Professor of Philosophy at the University of California,
Berkeley, is also the author of Being-in-the-World. A Commentary on
Heidegger's Being and Time, Division I.
