Suppose, further, that this would make the world a better place; that would be quite something. \u003cem\u003eKnowledge and Conceptual Engineering\u003c\/em\u003e is a comprehensive and systematic study of the nature and normativity of conceptual engineering. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book comprehensively deals with all the central questions in the field: the very possibility of conceptual engineering, its success conditions, the epistemic and moral permissibility of conceptual engineering, the nature of conceptual ignorance and conceptual understanding, and duties to engage in conceptual engineering. It also considers the political aspects, such as engineering social kind concepts, the nature of hermeneutical injustice, and conceptual disinformation. Mona Simion and Christoph Kelp develop a systemic and unified framework centred on conceptual functions, and espouse a functionalist approach that is wholeheartedly optimistic, in that it takes conceptual engineering to be something that we can and should do.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mona Simion,Christoph Kelp\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 019891802X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198918028\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 02\/27\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Mona Simion","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47760786227455,"sku":"9780198918028","price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e0f09a09-6688-42b6-ba1b-24181ff7002b.jpg?v=1765514213","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/knowledge-and-conceptual-engineering-mona-simion-9780198918028","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
