Popular interest in bullshit — and its near relative, truthiness — is at an all-time high, but the subject has a rich philosophical history, with Hobbes, Locke, Hume, and Kant all weighing in on the matter. Here, contemporary philosophers reflect on bullshit from epistemological, ethical, metaphysical, historical, and political points of view. Tackling questions including what is bullshit, what does it do, is it a passing fad, and can it ever be eliminated, the book is a guide and resource for the many who find bullshit worth pondering.

This introductory text, now in its fourth edition, is a classic in its field. It shows, first and foremost, the importance of philosophy in educational debate and as a background to any practical activity such as teaching. What is involved in the idea of educating a person or the idea of educational success? What are the criteria for establishing the optimum balance between formal and informal teaching techniques? How trustworthy is educational research? In addition to these questions, which strike to the heart of the rationale for the educative process as a whole, the authors explore such concepts as culture, creativity, autonomy, indoctrination, needs, interests and learning by discovery. In this new updated edition, the authors draw on the latest research in genetics to argue that education is uniquely human and is essentially what develops us as humans. Resisting modern tendencies to equate knowledge with opinion, and value judgements with taste, this book leads the reader into the business of philosophising and champions the cause of reason in education.

For decades business management teams have learned lessons and absorbed wisdom from an array of disciplines – psychology, sociology, biology and more – but philosophy, and the wisdom it embodies, has long been overlooked. World-renowned business philosopher Anders Indset wants to correct this oversight through his mission to introduce practical philosophy into every organisation. Intended as a source of inspiration, Philosophy@Work explores the integration of philosophical tenets into the business landscape, and how they can be applied to personal development, the art of leadership and coping with the forces of change. Within its pages are reflections from twenty-seven of the world’s leading business thinkers, including Dorie Clark, Erica Dhawan, Mark Esposito, Stew Friedman, Marshall Goldsmith, Anil K. Gupta, Gianpiero Petriglieri, Haiyan Wang and many more. Through articles, interviews, and essays, they share their insights into the profound impact philosophy can have on business. This is a starting point to a world of practical applied philosophy, a first glimpse into the beginning of a new era.
