A Companion to Experimental Philosophy (eBook)
John Wiley & Sons (Verlag)
978-1-118-66168-0 (ISBN)
This is a comprehensive collection of essays that explores cutting-edge work in experimental philosophy, a radical new movement that applies quantitative and empirical methods to traditional topics of philosophical inquiry.
- Situates the discipline within Western philosophy and then surveys the work of experimental philosophers by sub-discipline
- Contains insights for a diverse range of fields, including linguistics, cognitive science, anthropology, economics, and psychology, as well as almost every area of professional philosophy today
- Edited by two rising scholars who take a broad and inclusive approach to the field
- Offers a complete introduction for non-specialists and students to the central approaches, findings, challenges, and controversies in experimental philosophy
