{"product_id":"animalism-stephan-blatti-9780199608751","title":"Animalism: New Essays on Persons, Animals, and Identity","description":"What are we? What is the nature of the human person? Animalism has a straightforward answer to these long-standing philosophical questions: we are animals. After being ignored for a long time in philosophical discussions of our nature, this idea has recently gained considerable support in metaphysics and philosophy of mind. It has also, amongst philosophers, occasioned strong opposition, even though it might be said to be the view assumed by much of the scientific community. \u003cem\u003eEssays on Animalism\u003c\/em\u003e is the first volume to be devoted to this important topic and promises to set the agenda for the next stage in the debate. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eContaining mainly new papers as well as two highly important articles that were recently published elsewhere, this volume's contributors include both emerging voices in the debate and many of those who have been instrumental in shaping it. Some of their contributions defend animalism, others criticize it, still others explore its more general implications. The book also contains a substantial introduction by the editors explaining what animalism is, identifying leading issues that merit attention, and highlighting many of the issues that the contributors have raised.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephan Blatti\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 019960875X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780199608751\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/28\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 344\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.10w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2017","brand":"Stephan Blatti","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46806931570943,"sku":"9780199608751","price":110.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a2880e98-ffb9-4738-aa08-8185de6e87ce.jpg?v=1745378102","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/animalism-stephan-blatti-9780199608751","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
