Philosophical Midwifery
Author: Pierre Grimes
Publisher: Bookbaby
ISBN: 9781667893631
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Since we accept as part of the natural order of life that parents love their children, sacrifice for them, and desire to influence the direction of their lives, it is possible to make that love and caring more profound and mature if we understand the significance of how, as parents and authorities, we unknowingly influence the lives of our children. When we reveal to them our most vital concerns, we do not realize that children draw their own conclusions from these encounters, and it is these conclusions that may adversely affect the understanding that shapes and molds their lives. We need to encourage families to create situations for family members where these pathologos scenes and the conclusions drawn from them can be discussed, reflected upon, and reexamined, thereby making the meaning of these words and deeds fit into a context other than the matrix of the pathologos. To achieve this goal, an openness to questions and discussions needs to be established in our society. A philosophical midwifery (PMW) approach could conceivably benefit those who recognize this need.

Understanding Human Knowledge
Author: Barry Stroud
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN: 9780198250333
Category : Knowledge, Theory of
Languages : en
Pages : 278
Book Description
Since the 1970s Barry Stroud has been one of the most original contributors to the philosophical study of human knowledge. This volume presents the best of Stroud's essays in this area. Throughout, he seeks to clearly identify the question that philosophical theories of knowledge are meant to answer, and the role scepticism plays in making sense of that question. In these seminal essays, he suggests that people pursuing epistemology need to concern themselves with whether philosophical scepticism is true or false. Stroud's discussion of these fundamental questions is essential reading for anyone whose work touches on the subject of human knowledge.

The Field Guide to Human Error Investigations
Author: Sidney Dekker
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351786032
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 137
Book Description
This title was first published in 2002: This field guide assesses two views of human error - the old view, in which human error becomes the cause of an incident or accident, or the new view, in which human error is merely a symptom of deeper trouble within the system. The two parts of this guide concentrate on each view, leading towards an appreciation of the new view, in which human error is the starting point of an investigation, rather than its conclusion. The second part of this guide focuses on the circumstances which unfold around people, which causes their assessments and actions to change accordingly. It shows how to "reverse engineer" human error, which, like any other componant, needs to be put back together in a mishap investigation.
