Is Philosophy Progressing Fast Enough?
In Russell Blackford & Damien Broderick (eds.), Philosophy's Future. Hoboken: Wiley. pp. 119–131 (2017)
Abstract
Is there enough progress in philosophy? It is notable that even within the discipline, opinions are divided. Optimists think there is more than enough progress in philosophy. Pessimists think we could and should do better. In this chapter I defend an optimistic answer to this question.Author's Profile
