Nancey Murphy

Anglo-american Postmodernity

Philosophical Perspectives On Science, Religion, And Ethics

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The book examines the shift from modern to postmodern in three areas: epistemology, philosophy of language, and metaphysics. Murphy contends that whole clusters of terms in each of these disciplines have taken on new uses in the past fifty years and that these changes have radical consequences for all areas of academia, especially philosophy of science, philosophy of religion, and ethics.
