Book excerpt: It was the intention of the present writer to notice particularly the several authors to whom he is, in the production of this volume, more or less indebted. But in a work, the original intention of which was to unite as far as possible the various excellencies of every treatise of eminence, quotations would naturally abound. In such cases it is usually deemed sufficient to make the acknowledgment once for all. The frequent alterations made in the language, and the inconvenience of crowding the page with names, tend to justify the exclusion of perpetual reference. To concentrate every useful illustration and improvement is a duty indispensably incumbent on every author"--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2009 APA, all rights reserved).

Book excerpt: Major New York Times bestseller Winner of the National Academy of Sciences Best Book Award in 2012 Selected by the New York Times Book Review as one of the ten best books of 2011 A Globe and Mail Best Books of the Year 2011 Title One of The Economist's 2011 Books of the Year One of The Wall Street Journal's Best Nonfiction Books of the Year 2011 2013 Presidential Medal of Freedom Recipient Kahneman's work with Amos Tversky is the subject of Michael Lewis's The Undoing Project: A Friendship That Changed Our Minds In his mega bestseller, Thinking, Fast and Slow, Daniel Kahneman, the renowned psychologist and winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics, takes us on a groundbreaking tour of the mind and explains the two systems that drive the way we think. System 1 is fast, intuitive, and emotional; System 2 is slower, more deliberative, and more logical. The impact of overconfidence on corporate strategies, the difficulties of predicting what will make us happy in the future, the profound effect of cognitive biases on everything from playing the stock market to planning our next vacation—each of these can be understood only by knowing how the two systems shape our judgments and decisions. Engaging the reader in a lively conversation about how we think, Kahneman reveals where we can and cannot trust our intuitions and how we can tap into the benefits of slow thinking. He offers practical and enlightening insights into how choices are made in both our business and our personal lives—and how we can use different techniques to guard against the mental glitches that often get us into trouble. Winner of the National Academy of Sciences Best Book Award and the Los Angeles Times Book Prize and selected by The New York Times Book Review as one of the ten best books of 2011, Thinking, Fast and Slow is destined to be a classic.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Logic: Or the Art of Reasoning Simplified That man is an intelligent creature, or a being capable of receiving intelligence to an indefinite extent, is not only a well known and established fact, but also one which involves the most important consequences. This single attribute of human existence not only elevates man in the scale of being, constitutes him capable of unlimited improvement, and of communicating it to others, but at the same time, as to the discharge of his duties, grants him the privilege to increase not only his respectability, but also his usefulness to the society with which he is connected. Though, on the one hand, it would be impossible duly to appreciate a gift so inestimable, yet on the other, be it remembered, that there is nothing given to man, there is no talent with which he is endued, but what requires cultivation. Not only our corporeal but also our mental faculties, unless they have salutary exercise, are liable to decline. The body for want of it is liable to wane into the most lamentable state of langor and imbecility; and the mind, for reasons perfectly analogous, through the want of exercising the means, with which we are so abundantly privileged, becomes inert and capable of being not only deceived by others, but also irrevocably injured through our own neglect. It cannot for a single moment be doubted, that man, as a sentient, intelligent being, stands as a candidate for happiness. All men seek it, in one way or the other: a single exception would be a parodox in the history of humanity. According to the extent precisely of our mental vision, not only happiness on the one hand, is before us, until it prospectively rise into all the excellency of a prize whose value is ineffable, but also on the other, the risk of losing that at which all, in one way or the other aim, is felt with a vigilant sensibility that constitutes the best guarantee of success. Attention is an important act in the mind of man; when that is gained much is done, yet not all. Though the prospect of success, from attention, immediately rise above zero in the scale of expectancy, yet more is wanting. An object the most desirable may be proposed, yet information of the means of its attainment may be either wanting, or we are not possessed of the method of so connecting the several parts of that information together, as from thence to deduce a conclusion such, as shall infallibly lead to the attainment of the object desired.

Download or read book Galileo and the Art of Reasoning written by M.A. Finocchiaro and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work of Galileo has long been important not only as a foundation of modern physics but also as a model - and perhaps the paradigmatic model - of scientific method, and therefore as a leading example of scientific rationality. However, as we know, the matter is not so simple. The range of Galileo readings is so varied that one may be led to the conclusion that it is a case of chacun a son Galileo; that here, as with the Bible, or Plato or Kant or Freud or Finnegan's Wake, the texts themselves underdetermine just what moral is to be pointed. But if there is no canonical reading, how can the texts be taken as evidence or example of a canonical view of scientific rationality, as in Galileo? Or is it the case, instead, that we decide a priori what the norms of rationality are and then pick through texts to fmd those which satisfy these norms? Specifically, how and on what grounds are we to accept or reject scientific theories, or scientific reasoning? If we are to do this on the basis of historical analysis of how, in fact, theories came to be accepted or rejected, how shall we distinguish 'is' from 'ought'? What follows (if anything does) from such analysis or reconstruction about how theories ought to be accepted or rejected? Maurice Finocchiaro's study of Galileo brings an important and original approach to the question of scientific rationality by way of a systematic read
