Synopsis
Ruth Garrett Millikan presents a strikingly original account of how we get to grips with the world in thought. Her question is Kant's 'How is knowledge possible?', answered from a contemporary naturalist standpoint. We begin with an understanding of what the world is like prior to cognition, then develop a theory of cognition within that world., Ruth Garrett Millikan presents a highly original account of cognition - of how we get to grips with the world in thought. The question at the heart of her book is Kant's 'How is knowledge possible?', but answered from a contemporary naturalist standpoint. The starting assumption is that we are evolved creatures that use cognition as a guide in dealing with the natural world, and that the natural world is roughly as natural science has tried to describe it. Very unlike Kant, then, we must begin with ontology, with a rough understanding of what the world is like prior to cognition, only later developing theories about the nature of cognition within that world and how it manages to reflect the rest of nature. And in trying to get from ontology to cognition we must traverse another non-Kantian domain: questions about the transmission of information both through natural signs and through purposeful signs including, especially, language. Millikan makes a number of innovations. Central to the book is her introduction of the ideas of unitrackers and unicepts, whose job is to recognize the same again as manifested through the jargon of experience. She offers a direct reference theory for common nouns and other extensional terms; a naturalist sketch of conceptual development; a theory of natural information and of language function that shows how properly functioning language carries natural information; a novel description of the semantics/pragmatics distinction; a discussion of perception as translation from natural informational signs; new descriptions of indexicals, demonstratives and intensional contexts; and a new analysis of the reference of incomplete descriptions., Ruth Garrett Millikan presents a highly original account of cognition - of how we get to grips with the world in thought.

Shipping was super fast, the book was packaged well, and the auction had all the information I needed to know to make an informed purchase. The book was as described and I got it for a great price! I would definitely buy from this seller again!
- e***l (613)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufExactly as advertised. Seller shipped item quickly but the USPS has a pathetic reputation with me. It was extremely slow with tracking showing that the item had not moved for several days at one location which required me to call USPS to get the item moving again. I recommend this seller!!TIPACE 4-LIGHT MODERN BLACK VANITY BLACK LED FIXTURE (Nr. 226098126136)
