The picture is inspired by Rudolf Carnap's construction of the world in Der Logische Aufbau Der Welt.

Our attitudes are influenced by a wide range of non-epistemic or non-rational factors, including our character, our emotions ... Read more

  • Essays Towards a Theory of Knowledge

    by Alexander Philip ...
    Two years ago, in the preface to another essay, the present writer ventured to affirm that "Civilisation moves rather towards a chaos than towards a cosmos." But he could not foretell that the descensus Averni would be so alarmingly rapid. When we find Science, which has done so much and promised so much for the happiness of mankind, devoting so large a proportion of its resources to the ... Read more

  • The Nature of Philosophical Problems

    Their Causes and Implications

    by John Kekes ...
    We must all make choices about how we want to live. We evaluate our possibilities by relying on historical, moral, personal, political, religious, and scientific modes of evaluations, but the values and reasons that follow from them conflict. Philosophical problems are forced on us when we try to cope with such conflicts. There are reasons for and against all proposed ways of coping with the ... Read more
