Description
Having spent decades teaching philosophy in American, Asian, African, and European universities, Michael Dummett has witnessed firsthand the fractured state of contemporary practice and the urgent need for reconciliation. Setting forth a proposal for renewal and reengagement, Dummett begins by describing the nature of philosophical inquiry as it has developed for centuries, especially its exceptional openness and perspective, which has, ironically, led to our present crisis. He discusses philosophy in relation to science, religion, morality, language, and meaning and suggests avenues for healing the discipline, potentially around a renewed investigation of the mind, language, and thought. Dummett's popularity as a teacher and writer stems from his frankness and accessibility, and he brings these very qualities to a major intellectual intervention.
