Description

MALCOLM, Norman: Knowledge and Certainty: Essays and Lectures. Ithaca, NY, Cornell University Press, 1975. Stated First Printing, 1975 (originally published: 1963). Paperback, 244 pp. Subject: Nonfiction / Contemporary Philosophy-American / Modern Philosophy-20th Century-essays and Lectures. Condition: Good. Evident wear and foxing to the covers and sides of the book. Still a decent copy overall. "A leading interpreter of the philosophy of Wittgenstein, Norman Malcolm is particularly noted for his lucid analysis of perennially interesting questions of epistemology. The ten essays collected here...have been arranged chronologically. The first three critically evaluate other philosophers views and include perceptive discussions of the ordinary meanings of some English expressions. These are followed by two essays that interpret Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations and apply [his] ideas to several philosophical problems...[Also] still widely debated among philosophers, is Malcolm's controversial treatment of Anselm's ontological arguments.....[And lastly: ] three essays that analyze concepts involving the idea of memory."
