Dealing with contemporary philosophy, this book sets itself three main aims: the development of a general theory of dialectic, of which Hegelian dialectic can be seen to be a special case; the dialectical enrichment and deepening of critical realism; and the outline of the elements of a totalizing critique of Western philosophy.
Dealing with philosophy of science, this book sets out to revindicate ontology, critiquing the reduction of being in favor of knowledge, which the author calls the "epistemic fallacy".
Diagnoses, explains and resolves the "problems of philosophy". This book reviews: the theory of knowledge and philosophy of science; the philosophy of logic and language; the philosophies of space, time and causality; the philosophy of the social and life sciences and of dialectic; and, ethics, politics and aesthetics.
Offers an assessment of the impasse of contemporary accounts of science as stemming from an incomplete critique of positivism. This book provides a systematic exposition of scientific realism in the form of transcendental realism, highlighting a conception of science as explanatory of a structured, differentiated and changing world.
Presents an introduction to the increasingly influential multi-disciplinary and international body of thought, known as critical realism. This book contains critiques of some of the most important schools of thought and thinkers and advances novel and convincing resolutions of many traditional philosophical problems.
Sets out to develop a critique of the work of Richard Rorty, one of the most influential authors. This title argues that Rorty's account of science and knowledge is based on a half-truth, and that Rorty's problem-field replicates the Kantian resolution of the third antinomy: we are determined as material bodies, but free as discursive subjects.
