Supplementary Volume Research Articles

Statement Concerning the Supplementary Volume of the Encyclopedia of Philosophy

The Macmillan Reference Company and Prentice Hall International recently released a volume entitled ‘Supplement of the Encyclopedia of Philosophy’. As the editor-in-chief of the original eight-volume Encyclopedia I wish to explain why I must disassociate from this Supplement.The Supplement does contain many valuable articles by recognized philosophers, but it violates the spirit of the original work in one important respect. An article in the Oxford Companion to Philosophy accurately describes the Encyclopedia as a ‘massive Enlightenment work’ and similar descriptions were offered in a front-page review in the Times Literary Supplement of London (September 14, 1967) by Anthony (now Lord) Quinton. My associates and I edited the Encyclopedia in the spirit of Voltaire and Diderot, of Hume and Bertrand Russell. We tried to be fair to religious and metaphysical philosophers, but a good deal of space was devoted to radical thinkers and movements that had been frequently neglected or mishandled in earlier reference works. Furthermore, philosophers whom we regarded as obscurantists, while their ideas were never misrepresented, received the kind of critical treatment we thought appropriate. This spirit has not been preserved in the Supplement. There are some interesting and balanced articles on religious topics, but the highly significant biological research, reported in the writings of Stephen J. Gould and Richard Dawkins, which undermines one major form of the design argument, is not even mentioned. The ‘big bang’ is briefly mentioned (p. 143), but there is no reference to the work of Adolf Grünbaum, Steven Weinberg and other scientists and philosophers showing that neither the big bang nor any other cosmological theory of modern physics support a First Cause. More seriously, a number of contemporary writers, mostly German and French, who are regarded with suspicion if not outright contempt by most analytic philosophers are given extensive and even enthusiastic coverage. In alphabetical order they are Hannah Arendt, Simone de Beauvoir, Jacques Derrida, Michel Foucault, Hans-Georg Gadamer, and Paul Ricoeur (five articles on Ricoeur). It may be argued that, whatever the defect of their work, these figures have achieved such prominence that articles about them are warranted. Perhaps so, but what we get are totally uncritical pieces.

Home away from home.

A discourse on the careers and events that relate to Everard Home's Lectures on Comparative Anatomy, published in six volumes, of which the final supplementary volume of 1828 is in the Gordon Craig Library. This volume contains 68 engravings, of subjects as diverse as the stomach of the alpaca and the female organs of the duckbilled platypus Ornithorhynchus, and Home's credentials occupy about half of the title page.

97/00833 Coal liquefaction kinetics

Understanding the mechanisms of uncatalyzed direct coal liquefaction by means of reaction kinetics has been a long sought goal. Curran et al. in 1967 and Wiser in 1968 and Neavel in 1976 measured the rates of liquefaction of various coals and postulated a free radical mechanism to explain the data obtained. The kinetics as determined by these and other workers is described in detail by Gorin in Chapter 27 of Elliott`s Second Supplementary Volume to the Chemistry of Coal Series. However, it has been well known that most coals contain some material extractable by organic solvents. The solvents used in direct coal liquefaction would of course be expected to also extract soluble material as well as effect the liquefaction reaction. If the extractable material were a significant quantity in the coal, it would seriously affect the kinetics. Cassidy et al. used a stirred autoclave with a sampling port at the bottom in their kinetic studies. They observed that hot charging the coal rapidly formed an oil which they considered to originate predominantly from the {open_quote}guest component{close_quote}, i.e., extractables, in the lignite they studied. Also, the free radical nature of the liquefaction process would be expected to produce secondary reaction productsmore » which would complicate the kinetics as well as lead to retrograde products. The kinetics of the liquefaction of a bituminous and subbituminous coal are reported.« less

Remedies for human subjects of cold war research: recommendations of the Advisory Committee.

At a White House ceremony in October 1995, the Advisory Committee on Human Radiation Experiments presented its Final Report to President Bill Clinton. The 925-page report and the over 2,000 pages of supplemental volumes summarized eighteen months of investigative research, debate, and deliberation on historical and contemporary issues in human subjects research. The Advisory Committee's efforts were aided by unprecedented support from the highest levels of the executive branch, including the heads of eight cabinet-level agencies and their departments' resources. The presidentially appointed committee and its staff delved into long-forgotten Cold Warera government archives, listened to hours of public testimony, interviewed key players in the development of medical therapies and nuclear weapons, and studied ethical issues arising in today's research.In this article we focus on a critical, but narrowly defined, part of the Advisory Committee's Final Report: remedying harms or wrongs to subjects of human radiation experiments conducted or sponsored by the U.S. government between 1944 and 1974.

Sympathy, Simulation, and the Impartial Spectator

Hume observed that our minds are mirrors to one another: they reflect one another's passions, sentiments, and opinions.' This "sympathy," or "propensity we have to sympathize with others, to ... receive by communication [the] inclinations and sentiments [of others], however different from, or even contrary to, our own," he held to be the chief source of moral distinctions.2 Hume presented an account of how this mirroring of minds works. After a brief presentation of the account, I will show how it needs to be updated and corrected in the light of recent empirical research. Then I will give some reasons to think that the mirroring of minds is more pervasive than even Hume had thought: that mirroring is an essential part of the way in which we think about other minds. Finally, I will make some remarks about the relevance of mirroring to ethics.

Anglo-Italian Attitudes

These two attractively printed and bound volumes contain ten essays selected from the impressive Italian language twelve-volume series Storia dell'Arte italiana, published between 1979 and 1982 by Einaudi. That series was itself part of a trilogy composed of a History of Italy of six volumes (1972-76), followed by eighteen supplementary volumes; and a History of Italian Literature in twelve volumes (1982-91). All three projects emphasize social factors (the academic editors include leading Marxists like Ruggiero Romano and Alberto Asor Rosa). The Annales School has also been influential, since the idea that a total history reveals connections between activities such as painting, politics, philosophy, informs the series. The metamorphosis of the twelve volumes on art in Italian (each with about 400 illustrations) into two volumes in English (with 83 and 129 illustrations respectively) is a story of compression and reduction. Unfortunately for the reader, we are not informed who made the selection and on what grounds. Nevertheless, there are some very useful essays here, and all of them could be readily set for undergraduate and graduate reading. There has rightly been no attempt to create an exhaustive survey text. Interest focuses on concepts and methods, a characteristic of the Einaudi undertakings in general. Essays cover substantial ground, ranging from historical surveys, such as Peter Burke's wide-ranging but succinct 'The Italian Artist and his Roles', and Francis Haskell's fascinating essay on the dispersal and conservation of art-historical property in Italy, to attempts to redraw the terms of discussion of Italian art, which include Anna Mura's 'The Public Reception of Art' a discussion of art and its public in terms of semiotics and reception theory to Salvatore Settis's essay on the iconography of Italian art between 1100 and 1500.
