Miscevic begins with an excellent introduction to cognitive science and goes on to create a searching defence of human rationality and of a traditional role for truth in epistemology. He presents a critical scrutiny of the relativism championed by Stephen Stich and Paul Churchland and their followers, showing that it not only exaggerates the subversive impact of science, but relies on its links with naturalism for much of its credibility. His careful dissection of relativist arguments establishes the main outlines of a positive rationalistic picture that is both original and convincing."--Jacket. 410 0$aToronto studies in philosophy. 606 $aRationalism 606 $aCognition 606 $aRelativity 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aRationalism. 615 0$aCognition. 615 0$aRelativity. 676 $a149.7 700 $aMis?c?evic?$b Nenad$0691993 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910787491903321 996 $aRationality and cognition$93700826 997 $aUNINA
