It proposes physicalistic theories on conceptual representation,truth,analyticity,modality,the nature of mathematics,epistemic justification,knowledge,apriority,and intuition,and offers a coherent philosophical worldview that can accommodate many aspects traditionally of interest to philosophers. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 568 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13 December 2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Springer Verlag, Singapore\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book presents a groundbreaking exploration of physicalism, offering a comprehensive philosophical framework that challenges traditional notions of the mind-body divide. It advocates for a radical version known as \"No-Self Physicalism,\" which treats cognitive subjects as mere physical things and rejects the notion of an amorphous or soul-like subject or self. By adopting this perspective, the book forces physicalists to reevaluate core philosophical concepts such as truth, analyticity, modality, priority, and more.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book proposes that a cognitive subject can be fully understood as a neural network-based robot programmed by evolution, hence the term \"No-Self.\" This approach enables the development of physicalistic theories on various philosophical topics, including conceptual representation, truth, analyticity, modality, the nature of mathematics, epistemic justification, knowledge, apriority, and intuition. These theories aim to demonstrate that No-Self Physicalism, considered the most minimalistic and radical version of physicalism to date, possesses the capacity to accommodate a wide range of philosophical interests.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book's unique and innovative approach sets it apart from other works in the field. It meticulously develops its content, providing a thorough and rigorous exploration of physicalism and its implications. Its refreshingly radical perspective appeals to those seeking a coherent philosophical worldview that aligns with the advancements of science. Whether one is an academic philosopher, a student, or simply someone interested in exploring the boundaries of knowledge, this book offers valuable insights and perspectives that are sure to engage and inspire.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1033g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 235 x 155 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9789811981425\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2023\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Feng Ye","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44295245070586,"sku":"9789811981425","price":108.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_6a55d186-367c-453b-9ea0-1baf4205c791.jpg?v=1687522903","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/studies-in-noself-physicalism-9789811981425","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
