He logged fifteen thousand through all seasons and weather. He ducked tornadoes and braved snowstorms to draw barns, bridges, depots, mills, storefronts, mansions, courthouses, churches, theaters, band-stands, ballparks, and other monuments to the human proclivity for building. 'My book of drawings and watercolors is a celebration of spaces - little spaces, really. Set down a towering county courthouse in the middle of a wide Nebraska horizon, and even government looks mighty small', writes Hanna. 'I have drawn and painted these pictures from inside the world of the buildings and places they represent'.This record of an appreciative journey from Santee to Bayard, from Otoe County to Sioux County, from Carhenge at Alliance to the train station at Weeping Water, from Maskell's one-room city hall to the state capitol, from Omaha cityscapes to Sandhihs landscapes, from North Plane to West Point and points in between is a work to savor and treasure. Born in Ewing, Nebraska, Robert Hanna holds a degree in architecture from the University of Nebraska and has maintained an architectural practice in Lincoln since 1968. He is a recipient of the Nebraska Architects Honor Award and the Central States Regional Honor Award for excellence in architectural design. His sketches and watercolors have been widely exhibited. He maintains a studio-gallery in Lincoln and conducts sketching and watercolor workshops throughout the Midwest.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50367820464401,"sku":"CIN0803223587G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0803223587.jpg?v=1750882681"},{"product_id":"embodied-minds-in-action-book-robert-hanna-9780199230310","title":"Embodied Minds in Action","description":"In Embodied Minds in Action,  Robert Hanna and Michelle Maiese work out a unified treatment of three fundamental philosophical problems: the mind-body problem, the problem of mental causation, and the problem of action. This unified treatment rests on two basic claims. The first is that conscious, intentional minds like ours are essentially embodied. This entails that our minds are necessarily spread throughout our living, organismic bodies and belong to their complete neurobiological constitution. So minds like ours are necessarily alive. The second claim is that essentially embodied minds are self-organizing thermodynamic systems. This entails that our mental lives consist in the possibility and actuality of moving our own living organismic bodies through space and time, by means of our conscious desires. The upshot is that we are essentially minded animals  who help to create the natural world through our own agency. This doctrine--the Essential Embodiment Theory--is a truly radical idea which subverts the traditionally opposed and seemingly exhaustive categories of Dualism and Materialism, and offers a new paradigm for contemporary mainstream research in the philosophy of mind and cognitive neuroscience.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51099084095761,"sku":"NIN9780199230310","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52479900188945,"sku":"NLS9780199230310","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0199230315.jpg?v=1776940111"},{"product_id":"take-your-idea-to-the-marketplace-book-robert-hanna-9781482049008","title":"Take Your Idea to the Marketplace","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51199242469649,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51199244402961,"sku":"NIN9781482049008","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1482049007.jpg?v=1750989076"},{"product_id":"rationality-and-logic-book-robert-hanna-9780262512510","title":"Rationality and Logic","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAn argument that logic is intrinsically psychological and human psychology is intrinsically logical, and that the connection between human rationality and logic is both constitutive and mutual.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eRationality and Logic\u003c\/i\u003e, Robert Hanna argues that logic is intrinsically psychological and that human psychology is intrinsically logical. He claims that logic is cognitively constructed by rational animals (including humans) and that rational animals are essentially logical animals. In order to do so, he defends the broadly Kantian thesis that all (and only) rational animals possess an innate cognitive logic faculty. Hanna's claims challenge the conventional philosophical wisdom that sees logic as a fully formal or topic-neutral science irreconcilably separate from the species- or individual-specific focus of empirical psychology.Logic and psychology went their separate ways after attacks by Frege and Husserl on logical psychologism--the explanatory reduction of logic to empirical psychology. Hanna argues, however, that--despite the fact that logical psychologism is false--there is an essential link between logic and psychology. Rational human animals constitute the basic class of cognizers or thinkers studied by cognitive psychology; given the connection between rationality and logic that Hanna claims, it follows that the nature of logic is significantly revealed to us by cognitive psychology. Hanna's proposed logical cognitivism has two important consequences: the recognition by logically oriented philosophers that psychologists are their colleagues in the metadiscipline of cognitive science; and radical changes in cognitive science itself. Cognitive science, Hanna argues, is not at bottom a natural science; it is both an objective or truth-oriented science and a normative human science, as is logic itself.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51700515602705,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":51700515864849,"sku":"CIN0262512513A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0262512513.jpg?v=1750877454"},{"product_id":"kant-and-the-foundations-of-analytic-philosophy-book-robert-hanna-9780199272044","title":"Kant and the Foundations of Analytic Philosophy","description":"Robert Hanna presents a fresh view of the Kantian and analytic traditions that have dominated continental European and Anglo-American philosophy over the last two centuries, and of the relation between them. The rise of analytic philosophy decisively marked the end of the hundred-year dominance of Kant's philosophy in Europe. But Hanna shows that the analytic tradition also emerged from Kant's philosophy in the sense that its members were able to define and legitimate their ideas only by means of an intensive, extended engagement with, and a partial or complete rejection of, the Critical Philosophy. Hanna's book therefore comprises both an interpretative study of Kant's massive and seminal Critique of Pure Reason, and a critical essay on the historical foundations of analytic philosophy from Frege to Quine.   Hanna considers Kant's key doctrines in the Critique in the light of their reception and transmission by the leading figures of the analytic tradition--Frege, Moore, Russell, Wittgenstein, Carnap, and Quine.

Hanna's earlier book Kant and the Foundations of Analytic Philosophy (OUP 2001), explores basic conceptual and historical connections between Immanuel Kant's 18th-century Critical Philosophy and the tradition of mainstream analytic philosophy from Frege to Quine. The central topics of the analytic tradition in its early and middle periods were meaning and necessity. But the central theme of mainstream analytic philosophy after 1950 is scientific naturalism, which holds---to use Wilfrid Sellars's apt phrase---that 'science is the measure of all things'. This type of naturalism is explicitly reductive. Kant, Science, and Human Nature has two aims, one negative and one positive. Its negative aim is to develop a Kantian critique of scientific naturalism. But its positive and more fundamental aim is to work out the elements of a humane, realistic, and nonreductive Kantian account of the foundations of the exact sciences. According to this account, the essential properties of the natural world are directly knowable through human sense perception (empirical realism), and practical reason is both explanatorily and ontologically prior to theoretical reason (the primacy of the practical).","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52488003649809,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52488004305169,"sku":"NLS9780199285549","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780199285549.jpg?v=1759862135"},{"product_id":"science-for-humans-book-robert-hanna-9783031611155","title":"Science for Humans","description":"This book presents and defends an original and paradigm-shifting conception of formal science, natural science, and the natural universe alike, that’s fully pro-science, but at the same time neither theological or God-centered, nor solipsistic or self-centered, nor communitarian or social-institution-centered, nor scientistic or science-valorizing, nor materialist\/physicalist or reductive, nor—above all—mechanistic.

Hanna shows how specifically Kantian moral principles can be applied to the design, production, and implementation of digital technology, with a special focus on how these principles flow from the concept and fact of human dignity. His core thesis is that digital technology is nothing more and nothing less than a tool created by humankind for the betterment of humankind, whose use should be constrained by Kantian moral principles grounded in human dignity. This thesis promises to stimulate new research on Kantian approaches to digital ethics and AI ethics. It also has important political implications, including a clarion call for us to engage in the self-conscious, self-disciplined, and free exercise of our own innate cognitive, affective, and practical capacities, in the face of new and exceptionally powerful forms of digital technology—e.g., chatbots—that threaten to undermine our ability to think, feel, and act for ourselves.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52760803967249,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52760804229393,"sku":"NIN9783111259796","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783111259796.jpg?v=1763587379"},{"product_id":"life-s-a-jungle-africa-s-most-wanted-dvd-0625828612312","title":"Life's a Jungle: Africa's Most Wanted","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53219043344657,"sku":"CINB0077PBQ5EVG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0625828612312.jpg?v=1772847177"},{"product_id":"thought-shaping-enactivism-and-embodied-habits-of-mind-book-robert-hanna-9783032296306","title":"Thought-Shaping, Enactivism, and Embodied Habits of Mind","description":"This book reveals how our social institutions, technologies, and cultural narratives shape not only what we think, but how we think—and ultimately, who we become. Robert Hanna, Michelle Maiese, and Otto Paans bring together philosophy of mind, cognitive science, and sociopolitical theory to show how our thoughts, emotions, and actions are molded by the worlds we inhabit.   Challenging the dominant mechanistic worldview, the authors advocate for a neo-organicist perspective that recognizes the dynamic, creative, and self-organizing nature of human cognition. Through vivid case studies—ranging from gun violence and digital technologies to ecological crisis and the rhythms of work—they demonstrate how “thought-shapers” operate at every level of society, for better or worse.   Accessible yet deeply scholarly, the book offers a compelling vision for transforming our collective habits and institutions to foster genuine human flourishing. This is essential reading for anyone interested in philosophy of mind, enactivism, or the urgent task of reimagining our shared future.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53605901598993,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":53605901992209,"sku":"NGR9783032296306","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}]}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/collections\/author-books-by-robert-hanna.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
