Forthcoming Not for Profit Why Democracy Needs the Humanities Martha C. Nussbaum

In this short and powerful book, celebrated philosopher Martha Nussbaum makes a passionate case for the importance of the liberal arts at all levels of education.

Historically, the humanities have been central to education because they have rightly been seen as essential for creating competent democratic citizens. But recently, Nussbaum argues, thinking about the aims of education has gone disturbingly awry both in the United “This book could not be more States and abroad.

Saving God Religion after Idolatry Mark Johnston

In this book, Mark Johnston argues that God needs to be saved not only from the distortions of the “undergraduate atheists” (Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens, and Sam Harris) but, more importantly, from the idolatrous tendencies of religion itself. Each monotheistic religion has its characteristic ways of domesticating True Divinity, of taming God’s demands so that they do not radically threaten our self-love and false righteousness. Turning the monotheistic critique of idolatry on the monotheisms themselves, Johnston shows that much in these tradi- tions must be condemned as false and spiritually debilitating. He then “[O]utstanding. . . .

Surviving Death Mark Johnston

In this extraordinary book, Mark Johnston sets out a new understand- ing of personal identity and the self, thereby providing a purely natural- istic account of surviving death.

Death threatens our sense of the importance of goodness. The threat can be met if there is, as Socrates said, “something in death that is better for the good than for the bad.” Yet, as Johnston shows, all exist- ing theological conceptions of the afterlife are either incoherent or at odds with the workings of nature. These supernaturalist pictures of the rewards for goodness also obscure a striking consilience between the philosophical study of the self and an account of goodness common “This outstanding book to Judaism, Christianity, Hinduism, and Buddhism: the good person presents original and is one who has undergone a kind of death of the self and who lives indeed brave views. . . . [It] a life transformed by entering imaginatively into the lives of others, is also superbly written— anticipating their needs and true interests.

2 Princeton Foundations of Contemporary Philosophy Scott Soames, series editor This is a new series of state-of-the-art books, written by leading experts, about major areas of active research in contemporary philosophy. Providing high-level introductions for students and fresh perspec- tives for researchers, these books present new, unified visions of their subjects, from their recent history and leading themes to their most exciting new developments and most important unanswered questions.

New Philosophical Logic John P. Burgess

Philosophical Logic is a clear and concise critical survey of nonclassical logics of philosophical interest written by one of the world’s leading authorities on the subject. After giving an overview of classical logic, John Burgess introduces five central branches of nonclassical logic (temporal, modal, conditional, relevantistic, and intuitionistic), focusing on the sometimes problematic relationship between formal apparatus and intuitive motivation. Requiring minimal background and arranged to make the more technical material optional, the book offers a choice between an overview and in-depth study, and it balances the philo- sophical and technical aspects of the subject.

The book emphasizes the relationship between models and the “This book is terrific.

“Avishai Margalit has turned a fierce spotlight on a neglected but important area of ethics, when compromises are morally acceptable. He introduces new and compelling distinctions and illuminates a number of major issues in contemporary and recent historical events.” —Kenneth J. Arrow, Nobel Laureate in Economics

When is political compromise acceptable—and when is it fundamentally rotten, something we should never accept, come what may? What if a rotten compromise is politically necessary? Combining philosophy, politics, and history, and written in a vivid and accessible style, On Compromise and Rotten Compromises is full of surprising new insights about war, peace, justice, and sectarianism.

Avishai Margalit is the George F. Kennan Professor at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton and professor emeritus of philosophy at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.

4 • General Interest New Philosophy after Darwin Classic and Contemporary Readings Edited by Michael Ruse

Wittgenstein famously remarked in 1923, “Darwin’s theory has no more relevance for philosophy than any other hypothesis in natural science.” Yet today we are witnessing a major revival of interest in applying evolutionary approaches to philosophi- cal problems. Philosophy after Darwin is an anthology of es- sential writings covering the most influential ideas about the philosophical implications of Darwinism, from the publication of On the Origin of Species to today’s cutting-edge research.

Michael Ruse presents writings by leading modern thinkers and researchers—including some writings never before “In recent years, philosophers have published—together with the most important historical had plenty to say about the relevance documents on Darwinism and philosophy, starting with one of evolutionary thinking to ques- by Darwin himself.

An invaluable anthology and sourcebook, Philosophy after Darwin traces philosophy’s complicated relationship with Darwin’s dangerous idea, and shows how this relationship reflects a broad movement toward a secular, more naturalistic understanding of the human experience.

Michael Ruse is the Lucyle T. Werkmeister Professor of Philoso- phy at Florida State University.

Forthcoming The Brain and the Meaning of Life Paul Thagard

“The Brain and the Meaning of Life provides a highly informed account of the relevance of recent neuroscience to human life. It compellingly tells how hu- mans, as biological creatures in a physical world, can find meaning and value.” —William Bechtel, University of California, San Diego

Why is life worth living? What makes actions right or wrong? What is reality and how do we know it? The Brain and the Meaning of Life draws on research in philosophy, psychology, and neuroscience to answer some of the most pressing questions about life’s nature and value. Paul Thagard argues that evidence requires the abandonment of many traditional ideas about the soul, free will, and immortality, and shows how brain science matters for fun- damental issues about reality, morality, and the meaning of life. The ongoing Brain Revolution reveals how love, work, and play provide good reasons for living.

Paul Thagard is professor of philosophy, psychology, and computer science at the University of Water- loo, Canada.

The Symptom and the Subject highlights with fresh importance how classical Greek discoveries made possible new and deeply influential ways of thinking about the human subject.

Søren Kierkegaard (1813-55) is one of the most important philo- sophical and theological thinkers of the past two centuries.

Princeton University Press is publishing Kierkegaard’s Journals and Notebooks as a complement to its edition of Kierkegaard’s Writings. The volumes in Kierkegaard’s Journals and Notebooks will appear at intervals of about a year and a half.

“Educating Scholars tells the story of one of the most ambitious educational experiments attempted in the past twenty-five years at America’s top uni- versities. The authors take us on a journey into the training of humanists and the efforts to transform some parts of their experience. It is full of interesting ambitions, fascinating information and ideas, false starts, unexpected en- counters with changing conditions in the academic marketplace, and a set of results that were largely unanticipated. If you are interested in the humanities and in our nation’s best universities, this is the book you must read.” —Jonathan R. Cole, Columbia University
