Taking into account recent developments in the psychology of curiosity, as well as research on the nature and motivation of scientific inquiry, Mi??evi? identifies curiosity as a positive and vital character trait. Key topics covered include: · Curiosity as a subject in the history of philosophy · Curiosity as a possible ethical virtue · The importance of curiosity about oneself · Whether curiosity is good in itself or only as a means to an end (e.g. in the pursuit of truth). The book begins with a brief historical overview, before turning to the nature of curiosity from both a psychological and philosophical viewpoint. Curiosity is revealed as a crucial instrument in the advancement of science and wisdom, as well as within the wider picture of meaningful human life. Mi??evi? skilfully defends the idea that curiosity motivates and organises our cognitive abilities, playing the central role in our cognitive lives. 410 0$aPalgrave Innovations in Philosophy,$x2946-286X 606 $aKnowledge, Theory of 606 $aScience$xPhilosophy 606 $aPhilosophy of mind 606 $aEpistemology 606 $aPhilosophy of Science 606 $aPhilosophy of Mind 615 0$aKnowledge, Theory of. 615 0$aScience$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aPhilosophy of mind. 615 14$aEpistemology. 615 24$aPhilosophy of Science. 615 24$aPhilosophy of Mind. 676 $a153.8 676 $a121.6 700 $aMis?c?evic?$b Nenad$0691993 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910863161503321 996 $aCuriosity as an epistemic virtue$92126329 997 $aUNINA
