Abstract

ABSTRACT:How We Know is intended as a summary (and a modest extension) of Objectivist epistemology. Binswanger’s treatment of a wide range of epistemological issues is examined. Because his theory of propositions is inadequate and his philosophy of mind is an extreme form of dualism, Binswanger has added little to previous efforts by “official” Objectivists. As a work of epistemology in the broad sense, Binswanger’s effort is fatally impaired. It is undone by his bifurcation between consciousness and the physics of the brain, which, if accepted, would largely deprive psychology and even computer science of their subject matter.

我们需要知道什么?

摘要:《我们如何知道》是对客观主义认识论的总结(以及适度的延伸)。宾斯旺格对广泛的认识论问题的处理进行了审查。因为他的命题理论是不充分的，他的心灵哲学是二元论的一种极端形式，宾斯旺格对“官方”客观主义者之前的努力几乎没有贡献。作为广义的认识论著作，宾斯旺格的努力受到了致命的损害。他把意识和大脑的物理学分开，如果被接受，这将在很大程度上剥夺心理学甚至计算机科学的研究对象。
