4.0 out of 5 stars
Descartes Ala Kripke,
By Flounder (Substitution Instance) - See all my reviews
This review is from: What Am I?: Descartes and the Mind-Body Problem (Hardcover)
A dandy little book. Not quite for the uninitiated, which is why it is valuable. Skip Descartes and read Kripke's Naming and Necessity, Burge, as well as Themes from Kaplan. Then pick up Almog's latest book.It seems like Almog could be right about one thing (certainly): the so-called mind-body problem assumes no fundamental question. Almog does a nice job with the 'real distinction,' esp. in his discussion on conceivability in 1.3. Interesting (and successful) juxtaposition: Descartes, Arnauld, and Kripke (1.6). This book is easy to follow (some nice logic) and is clear in the typical Dodd Hall style (as opposed to some of his lectures). |
