Foley argues that the coherence of Camus' thought can best be understood through a thorough understanding of the concepts of 'the absurd' and 'revolt' as well as the relation between them. This book includes a detailed discussion of Camus' writings for the newspaper ""Combat"", Electronic books.848.91409Foley John.974109FlBoTFGFlBoTFGBOOK9910460310003321Albert Camus2217503UNINA03688nam 2200565 450 991079292940332120230809224655.03-11-052920-310.1515/9783110530940(CKB)3710000001403481(MiAaPQ)EBC4880135(DE-B1597)476959(OCoLC)992454181(DE-B1597)9783110530940(Au-PeEL)EBL4880135(CaPaEBR)ebr11399427(CaONFJC)MIL1015529(OCoLC)990929282(EXLCZ)99371000000140348120170717h20172017 uy 0engurcnu||||||||rdacontentrdamediardacarrierPhilosophy of cognitive neuroscience causal explanations, mechanisms, and experimental manipulations /Lena KästnerBerlin, [Germany] ;Boston, [Massachusetts] :De Gruyter,2017.©20171 online resource (268 pages) illustrationsEpistemic Studies,2512-5168 ;Volume 373-11-052737-5 3-11-053094-5 Includes bibliographical references and index.Frontmatter -- Preface -- Contents -- List of Figures -- 1.

This book examines the different kinds of experiments and manipulative research strategies involved in understanding and eventually explaining such phenomena. Against this background, it evaluates contemporary accounts of scientific explanation, specifically the mechanistic and interventionist accounts, and finds them to be crucially incomplete. Besides, mechanisms and interventions cannot actually be combined in the way usually done in the literature. This book offers solutions to both these problems based on insights from experimental practice. It defends a new reading of the interventionist account, highlights the importance of non-interventionist studies for scientific inquiry, and supplies a taxonomy of experiments that makes it easy to see how the gaps in contemporary accounts of scientific explanation can be filled. The book concludes that a truly empirically adequate philosophy of science must take into account a much wider range of experimental research than has been done to date. With the taxonomy provided, this book serves a stepping-stone leading into a new era of philosophy of science-for cognitive neuroscience and beyond.Cognitive neurosciencePhilosophyNeuroscience.interventionist causation.philosophy of science.Cognitive neurosciencePhilosophy.612.8/233CC 5680rvkKästner Lena1986-1475076MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910792929403321Philosophy of cognitive neuroscience3689065UNINA
