Philosophy in crisis: the need for reconstruction

Amherst, N.Y.: Prometheus Books (2001)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

Philosophy is indeed currently at a low ebb, admits Bunge (logic and metaphysics, McGill U.), but cites earlier crises from which it has recovered and suggests how the situation can be improved now. His topics include humanism in the information revolution, diagnosing pseudo-science, and values and morals in a materialist and realist perspective. c. Book News Inc.
