Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The Pragmatist Challenge lays out a programmatic view for taking a pragmatist approach to topics in philosophy of science and metaphysics. Pragmatism involves a collection of specific views as well as comprising a general approach that can be applied to multiple topics. For topics at the intersection of philosophy of science and metaphysics, pragmatism as explored in this volume is an effective way to take entrenched debates and re-frame them in ways that move past old dichotomies and offer more fruitful paths forward. Each chapter explores a dual vision of pragmatism: specific pragmatist views are developed, demonstrating how to take a distinctively pragmatist approach to some particular issue or subfield; and the general shape of what it means to take a pragmatist approach is elucidated as well. The chapters thus tend to be synoptic in scope. Collectively, they offer a new approach that can be taken up in constructively reframing other discussions, ready to be applied to new specific topics. Pragmatism is an especially potent tool that sits at the interface between methodological and applied questions coming directly from sciences, and the underlying ontological or metaphysical commitments that are implied by or support the methodological discussions. The goal of the volume is to articulate a variety of ways to be a pragmatist without having to commit to a single specific set of -isms in order to make use of it, while highlighting the common themes that manifest across different discussions. The chapters offer a heterogenous yet programmatic approach to pragmatism. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. With the completion of the third and final volume, the decade-long project to revise and catalogue Indian Pteridophytes (ferns and allies) have reached its conclusion. The last such project attempted was Beddome's Handbook of ferns of 1883-1892, where genera and species treated were almost unrecognizable compared to today. In these volumes, nomenclatural details, types, full synonymy, Indian and global distribution, IUCN status, and often descriptive comments are given for 1135 species (including 42 exotics) and 53 further subspecies, 1145 indigenous taxa, in India. Hybrids are also treated. The classification and emphasis of the books are based on wider taxonomic considerations and recognisable taxa, over and above purely molecular-cladonomic schemes. Notes and corrections of previous reports are made, particularly in the Appendices and under excluded species. Nearly 600 clear photographs, often of rare and critical species not previously illustrated, are provided showing the important characters for recognition. Part 1 covers the families from Lycophytes through Thelypteridaceae, in taxonomic order. Part 2 covers the large, advanced and critical families from Woodsiaceae to the end of Dryopteridaceae. Part 3 deals with some families of the general dryopteroid lineage, nearest to tectarioid ferns, Lomariopsidaceae to Oleandraceae. These are followed by Davalliaceae, which appears to represent a transition from Dryopteridaceae towards the advanced, large and critical, mainly epiphytic polypodioid families, Polypodiaceae and Grammitidaceae. The checklist is completed with the isolated heterosporous water-fern families, Azollaceae and Salviniacaeae, of a rather unclear relationship, but probably arising from near Schizaeaceae and Lygodiaceae, and currently placed after those families, though not dealt with in Part 1, it is followed by an Appendix with corrections or additions to Parts 1 and 2 and corrections and comments concerning some recent publications relating to Indian ferns. In addition to aiming to produce a detailed and comprehensively accurate account of these plants, many new revisions at species and some at a generic level have also been made in the book itself while setting out to maintain the important balance between molecular and morphological concepts of taxa. The detailed and careful, up-to-date research that went into the preparation of this work is unprecedented in South Asia, It is hoped that stability of names and concepts along with an indication of modern directions of research in various groups may result from the present work, which is intended to provide a comprehensive basis for present and future fern-study, cataloging and identification relevant to the fern-flora of the whole of Asia.
