The present book is intended to confirm this view. One kind of philosophical puzzlement arises when we have an apparent conflict of intuitions. If we are philosophers, we then try to show that the apparent conflict of intuitions is only an apparent conflict and not a real one. If we fail, we may have to say that what we took to be an apparent conflict of intuitions was in fact a conflict of apparent intuitions, and then we must decide which of the conflicting intuitions is only an apparent intuition. But if we succeed, then both of the intuitions will be preserved. Since there was an apparent conflict, we will have to conclude that the formulation of at least one of the intuitions was defective. And though the formulation may be imbedded in our ordinary language, we will have to say that, strictly and philosophically, a different formulation is to be preferred. But to make it clear that we are not rejecting the intuition we are reformulating, we must show systematically how to interpret the ordinary formulation into the philosophical one. The extent to which we can show this will be one mark our success in dealing with philosophical puzzle. Another will be the extent to which our proposed solution contributes to the solution of still other philosophical puzzles.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50096266445073,"sku":"CIN0812694287G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51008043450641,"sku":"NIN9780812694284","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0812694287.jpg?v=1750882354"},{"product_id":"foundations-of-knowing-book-roderick-m-chisholm-9780816611041","title":"The Foundations of Knowing","description":"The Foundations of Knowing  was first published in 1982. Minnesota Archive Editions uses digital technology to make long-unavailable books once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the original University of Minnesota Press editions.  This collection of essays on the foundations of empirical knowledge brings together ten of Roderick M. Chisholm's most important papers in epistemology, three of them published for the first time, the others significantly revised and expanded for this edition. The essays in Part I constitute a thoroughgoing defense of foundationalism—the doctrine that our justification for believing always rests upon a self-evident basis. In Part II, Chisholm applies foundationalist principles to various areas within the theory of knowledge, and in part III he presents a history of twentieth-century American epistemology.  \"Roderick M. Chisholm's work has been most influential both in the development of epistemology and in the widespread application of his analytic method. I am sure this publication featuring the unification of his views will be of great value to those working on the central issues of philosophy.\" Hector-Neri Castañeda, Indiana University  Roderick Chisholm is Andrew W. Mellon Professor of the Humanities in the department of philosophy at Brown University. Among his books are Perceiving: A Philosophical Study, Theory of Knowledge, Person and Object,and The First Person (Minnesota, 1981).","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50362574504209,"sku":"CIN0816611041G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51878020514065,"sku":"CIN0816611041VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0816611041.jpg?v=1750946957"},{"product_id":"problem-of-the-criterion-book-roderick-m-chisholm-9780874621389","title":"Problem of the Criterion","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50366058037521,"sku":"CIN0874621380G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50454947922193,"sku":"GOR013959099","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51758717468945,"sku":"CIN0874621380VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51809885520145,"sku":"GOR014409242","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0874621380.jpg?v=1751202480"},{"product_id":"brentano-and-intrinsic-value-book-roderick-m-chisholm-9780521269896","title":"Brentano and Intrinsic Value","description":"Franz Brentano developed an original theory of intrinsic value which he attempted to base on his philosophical psychology. Roderick Chisholm presents here a critical exposition of this theory and its place in Brentano's general philosophical system. He gives a detailed account of Brentano's ontology, showing how Brentano tried to secure objectivity for ethics not through a theory of practical reason, but through his theory of the intentional objects of emotions and desires. Professor Chisholm goes on to develop certain suggestions about intrinsic value made by Brentano and his students, and discusses their relevance to theodicy and the problem of evil. Brentano, as the teacher of Husserl, Meinong, Twardowski, and others, stands at the origin of the phenomenological tradition and of the Polish school of philosophy that developed after World War I. He has also had considerable influence on Anglo-American philosophy. This book will interest those concerned with the origins of phenomenological value theory and more generally with the connections between ethics and philosophical psychology.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50484656603409,"sku":"CIN052126989XG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50901631041809,"sku":"GOR006395140","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50960318431505,"sku":"CIN052126989XVG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51003070447889,"sku":"NIN9780521269896","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52331342233873,"sku":"NLS9780521269896","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53135507489041,"sku":"GOR008148275","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/052126989X.jpg?v=1750814481"},{"product_id":"realism-and-the-background-of-phenomenology-book-roderick-m-chisholm-9781258144326","title":"Realism And The Background Of Phenomenology","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51022295335185,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51022297202961,"sku":"NIN9781258144326","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1258144328.jpg?v=1750753939"},{"product_id":"realistic-theory-of-categories-book-roderick-m-chisholm-9780521556163","title":"A Realistic Theory of Categories","description":"Roderick Chisholm has been for many years one of the most important and influential philosophers contributing to metaphysics, philosophy of mind, and epistemology. This book can be viewed as a summation of his views on an enormous range of topics in metaphysics and epistemology. Yet it is written in the terse, lucid, unpretentious style that has become a hallmark of Chisholm's work. The book is an original treatise designed to defend an original, non-Aristotelian theory of categories. Chisholm argues that there are necessary things and contingent things; necessary things being things that are not capable of coming into being or passing away. He defends the argument from design, and thus includes the category of necessary substance (God). Further contentions of the essay are that attributes are also necessary beings, but not necessary substances, and that human beings are contingent substances but may not be material substances.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51079253688593,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51079254180113,"sku":"CIN0521556163G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52407183802641,"sku":"NLS9780521556163","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0521556163.jpg?v=1751135219"},{"product_id":"realism-and-the-background-of-phenomenology-book-roderick-m-chisholm-9781258038311","title":"Realism And The Background Of Phenomenology","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51102372725009,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51102373544209,"sku":"NIN9781258038311","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1258038315.jpg?v=1751145803"},{"product_id":"on-metaphysics-book-roderick-m-chisholm-9780816617678","title":"On Metaphysics","description":"Eighteen essays by a self-described analytic philosopher who is concerned with redirecting the linguistic emphasis in contemporary philosophy toward the traditional questions of metaphysics.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51323987788049,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51323990311185,"sku":"CIN0816617678G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0816617678.jpg?v=1750849568"},{"product_id":"theory-of-knowledge-book-roderick-m-chisholm-9780139141508","title":"Theory of Knowledge","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51415511597329,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51415512678673,"sku":"CIN0139141502G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51885191037201,"sku":"GOR014445454","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":53383641268497,"sku":"CIN0139141502A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0139141502.jpg?v=1751290209"},{"product_id":"brentano-and-meinong-studies-book-roderick-m-chisholm-9789062037247","title":"Brentano and Meinong Studies","description":"No detailed description available for \"Brentano and Meinong Studies\".","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53571193307409,"sku":"NLS9789062037247","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9789062037247.jpg?v=1780134973"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-roderick-m-chisholm.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
