She shows how Wittgenstein enables us to veer away from this brain-centred view of intelligence and behaviour to a person-centred view focusing on ways of acting that are both \u003ci\u003ediversely\u003c\/i\u003eembedded across forms of human life and\u003ci\u003e universally\u003c\/i\u003e embedded in a single human form of life. The book traces the radical importance of \u003ci\u003eaction\u003c\/i\u003e as the cohesive thread weaving through Wittgenstein's philosophy, and shows how \u003ci\u003ecertainty\u003c\/i\u003e intertwines with it to produce new ways of engaging in epistemology, the philosophy of mind and the philosophy of language.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e This selection of Moyal-Sharrock's essays vividly illustrates some of the ways in which Wittgenstein's pioneering enactivism has impacted - and can further impact - not only philosophy, but also neighbouring disciplines such as linguistics, psychology, primatology, evolutionary psychology and anthropology. \u003ci\u003eCertainty in Action\u003c\/i\u003eis essential reading for students and researchers of these disciplines, and for anyone interested in getting a grasp of Wittgenstein's lasting genius and influence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDanièle Moyal-Sharrock\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Hertfordshire, UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 280\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.58 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 20, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47347069157625,"sku":"9781350228894","price":77.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/UU04ODNEK3EwNW9RcGE2OUZpSHlpZz09_a3951d36-3d9d-48b7-9bc8-da8d91189f60.webp?v=1769757575","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/certainty-in-action-wittgenstein-on-language-mind-and-epistemology-paperback-2","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
