Scientific Progress
What constitutes cognitive scientific progress? This Element begins with an extensive survey of the contemporary debate on how to answer this question.It provides a blow-by-blow critical summary of the key literature on the issue over the past fifteen years, covering the central positions and arguments therein.It also draws upon older literature, where appropriate, to inform the treatment.The Element then enters novel territory by considering meta-normative issues concerning scientific progress.It focuses on how the standards involved in assessing progress arise.Does science have aims, which determine what counts as progress, as many authors assume?If so, what is it to be an aim of science? And how does one identify such things? If not, how do normative standards arise? After arguing that science does not have overarching aims, the Element proposes that the standards are ultimately subjective.

Plato's Progress
This is, as from the author of The Concept of Mind it could scarcely fail to be, a bold and rollicking book.It is also one of the most important works about Plato to have appeared since the first volume of Sir Karl Popper's The Open Society.Whereas The Concept of Mind was a general offensive against Cartesian views of man, eschewing any precise references to particular sources, Plato's Progress deals with scholarly questions of datings and developments, showing and demanding familiarity with a wide literature.Yet Professor Ryle is still incapable as ever of the dry-as-dust.

Moral Progress
This inaugural volume in the Munich Lectures in Ethics series presents lectures by noted philosopher Philip Kitcher.In these lectures, Kitcher develops further the pragmatist approach to moral philosophy, begun in his book The Ethical Project.He uses three historical examples of moral progress--the abolition of chattel slavery, the expansion of opportunities for women, and the increasing acceptance of same-sex love--to propose methods for moral inquiry.In his recommended methodology, Kitcher sees moral progress, for individuals and for societies, through collective discussions that become more inclusive, better informed, and involve participants more inclined to engage with the perspectives of others and aim at actions tolerable by all.The volume is introduced by Jan-Christoph Heilinger and contains commentaries from distinguished scholars Amia Srinivasan, Susan Neiman, and Rahel Jaeggi, and Kitcher's response to their commentaries.

How to Think about Progress : A Skeptic's Guide to Technology
How to Think about Progress is an interdisciplinary work exploring whether optimistic claims about technology’s potential stand up to humanity’s most difficult challenges.Will technology solve the problems of climate change, pandemics, cancer, loneliness, unhappiness, and even death?The authors show that techno-hype is all too often accepted because of the horizon bias, i.e. the modern propensity to believe that any problem that can be solved with technology will be solved in the very near future.The authors situate their analysis in a broad context, drawing on history, literature, and popular culture to emphasize their case against techno-hype.They also draw on a wide range of research, including that of biologists, philosophers of science and of language, psychologists, theorists of technological change, specialists on digital technologies, historians of ideas, and economists.As a corrective to much mainstream “futurism,” the book offers principles for seeing through much of the techno-hype that circulates online and in best-selling books.The authors share insights (without the jargon) from a variety of academic disciplines, making this book an engaging read for all audiences.Readers will find a balanced framework for thinking and writing about technological progress in the face of truly vexing challenges like cancer, climate change, and colonizing mars.
