What's in a Name?

Beschreibung

Wells identifies influential mistakes about language embedded in the empiricist philosophical tradition of Locke, Russell and Ayer. He shows how these errors stimulated a religious backlash, in which faith became coupled with commonsense realism. He also covers behaviourism and magical thinking.

Autor

Wells is Professor of German at Birkbeck College, University of London and a leading authority on both German intellectural history and the origins of Christianity.
