In Exploring Borders, Giuseppe Mantovani highlights and explores the ways in which culture acts as framework organising our experience. He emphasises the differences across and between cultures and examines the depths to which these can go. He also analyses the functions of culture, including: mediation, meaning-making, and forming a repertory of values and principles. Finally, he considers some of the challenges raised by taking a cultural perspective and examines how these may be addressed in society. This highly original and eminently readable narrative will be invaluable to scholars of psychology, media and cultural studies, and to all those fascinated by culture and eager to make the cultural dimension visible to all.

A small book to introduce anyone to psychology. I enjoyed this read. The author gave 2 sides to the major arguments and clearly showed an outline of many of the major players in the world of psychology, and philosophy for that matter. I think its also important to note that he gave a bit of a history to many of them too, just to show where they came from and why they might have such a view. I think this is important, in that we should also look critically at where we are at in psychology today. This book is very clear and to the point, as it should be for such a small book!

Название: Moral Realities: An Essay in Philosophical Psychology
Автор: Mark Platts
Издательство: Routledge
Год: 1991
Формат: pdf
Страниц: 179
Размер: 1 MB
Язык: English

Moral Realities engages the classical moral philosophies of Hume, Mandeville and Nietzsche, and tackles the powerful arguments of the contemporary moral relativists. Platts uses an existing critique of philosophical notions of desire and value to present a descriptive metaphysics of morals--clarifying both what morality is and what it is not. He also employs a classification of desire that articulates a general theory of value and valuing which is distinguished by a cognitive approach given to certain kinds of moral valuing. The possibility of applying this approach to moral valuings is defended against the persuasive criticisms of both the Humean subjectivist and the contemporary moral relativist.
