Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Speculative Philosophy, 1893, Vol. 22 Similarly, in the Introduction to his latest work, the Pro legomena to Ethics, we find him, with the Culture gospel of Matthew Arnold in his mind, insisting on the unsatisfactoriness of the position in which men allow certain ideas, derived from poetry and philosophy, to a joint lodgment in their minds, with inferences from popularized science, which do not admit of being reconciled with these deeper convictions in any logical system of beliefs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Philosophical Magazine, Vol. 22: Comprehending the Various Branches of Science, the Liberal and Fine Arts, Agriculture, Manufactures, and Commerce We did not pass through this strait, but sailed to the eastward, around Staaten Land. From St. Catharine to this place nothing remarkable occurred. Between lat. 46 and 53 south, we saw a great number of whales. One night the Neva struck against something, which in all pro hability was a whale. The greatest southern latitude to which we were obliged to proceed on account of the wind was 60 degrees. Whether we really doubled Cape Horn, or not, in the proper sense of the term, I cannot with eer tainty aflirm. On account of the north-west winds, which blow here so incessantly, and with so much violence, the captain is of opinion that navigators cannot be sure of con tinning their voyage with safety in the ocean till they have sailed round the wholeof Terra del Fuego. It is well known that capt. Bligh, who advanced so far as 78 west longitude from Greenwich, was obliged to return and steer for the Cape of Good hope, in order to reach the Sandwich islands. On the 2otb of March we were opposite to Cape Victoria and the Straits of Magellan. Cape Horn is not entirely undeserving of its bad name: it was stormy enough, and the land very high. How often we experienced storms I cannot exactly say. The eye becomes accustomed to heavy seas, and, by habit, the howling of the winds ceases to excite alarm. During these storms the heavens were filled with clouds; in the course of one of them we were'separated from the Neva, and did not see.ber again till we reached the Marquesas, where she arrived three days after us. The captain intended to remain some days at anchor at Easter Island, but the wind prevented us and, as we had resolved to proceed first to Kamtchatka, he was unwilling to lose time to no purpose. \ve therefore directed our course to the Marquesas.

Download or read book Evolutionary Psychology as Maladapted Psychology written by Robert C. Richardson and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2010-01-22 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A philosopher subjects the claims of evolutionary psychology to the evidential and methodological requirements of evolutionary biology, concluding that evolutionary psychology's explanations amount to speculation disguised as results. Human beings, like other organisms, are the products of evolution. Like other organisms, we exhibit traits that are the product of natural selection. Our psychological capacities are evolved traits as much as are our gait and posture. This much few would dispute. Evolutionary psychology goes further than this, claiming that our psychological traits—including a wide variety of traits, from mate preference and jealousy to language and reason—can be understood as specific adaptations to ancestral Pleistocene conditions. In Evolutionary Psychology as Maladapted Psychology, Robert Richardson takes a critical look at evolutionary psychology by subjecting its ambitious and controversial claims to the same sorts of methodological and evidential constraints that are broadly accepted within evolutionary biology. The claims of evolutionary psychology may pass muster as psychology; but what are their evolutionary credentials? Richardson considers three ways adaptive hypotheses can be evaluated, using examples from the biological literature to illustrate what sorts of evidence and methodology would be necessary to establish specific evolutionary and adaptive explanations of human psychological traits. He shows that existing explanations within evolutionary psychology fall woefully short of accepted biological standards. The theories offered by evolutionary psychologists may identify traits that are, or were, beneficial to humans. But gauged by biological standards, there is inadequate evidence: evolutionary psychologists are largely silent on the evolutionary evidence relevant to assessing their claims, including such matters as variation in ancestral populations, heritability, and the advantage offered to our ancestors. As evolutionary claims they are unsubstantiated. Evolutionary psychology, Richardson concludes, may offer a program of research, but it lacks the kind of evidence that is generally expected within evolutionary biology. It is speculation rather than sound science—and we should treat its claims with skepticism.

Download or read book Computational Philosophy of Science written by Paul Thagard and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1988 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By applying research in artificial intelligence to problems in the philosophy of science, Paul Thagard develops an exciting new approach to the study of scientific reasoning. This approach uses computational ideas to shed light on how scientific theories are discovered, evaluated, and used in explanations. Thagard describes a detailed computational model of problem solving and discovery that provides a conceptually rich yet rigorous alternative to accounts of scientific knowledge based on formal logic, and he uses it to illuminate such topics as the nature of concepts, hypothesis formation, analogy, and theory justification.
