The ‘history of analytic philosophy’ is to be understood broadly, as covering the period from the last three decades of the nineteenth century to the end of the twentieth century, beginning with the work of Frege, Russell, Moore and Wittgenstein (who are generally regarded as its main founders) and the influences upon them, and going right up to the recent history of the analytic tradition.

'In his powerful final course of lectures, expertly edited by Frédéric Gros and sympathetically translated by Graham Burchell, Foucault provides an explicitly political focus to his work on parrhesia.' Stuart Elden, Durham University, UK The Courage of the Truth is the last course that Michel Foucault delivered at the College de France before his death in 1984. In this course, now available in paperback, he continues the theme of the previous year’s lectures in exploring the notion of 'truth-telling' in politics to establish a number of ethically irreducible conditions based on courage and conviction.

Security, Territory, Population Michel Foucault
‘The English translation of Security, Territory and Population is a major event not only for Anglophone readers of Foucault’s work, but for all those concerned with understanding our present social and political condition... Burchell’s translation is meticulous, supple, and attentive to the nuances of Foucault’s fluid lecture style. We all stand in his debt.’ - Kevin Thompson, Book Review Editor, Continental Philosophy Review, Department of Philosophy, DePaul University, USA March 2007 Paperback

ETHICS AND METAETHICS ETHICS AND METAETHICS
THE PALGRAVE MACMILLAN ANIMAL ETHICS SERIES
Us Before Me Patricia Illingworth, Associate Professor, Northeastern University, USA
'Us Before Me is a timely and thoughtful book. I hope that Illingworth’s case for the importance of social capital, and especially global social capital, will be widely read and highly influential.' - Peter Singer, Professor of Bioethics, Princeton University, USA 'All truly great leaders—in other words, those who care about people—will find the ideas in Us Before Me central to how they frame their local and global responsibilities. Illingworth has made an important link between thinking, feeling and acting that provides a leap forward for leaders to effect changes that help solve human problems in our organizations, communities, countries and world.' - Nancy Dearman, Chief Executive Officer, Kotter International Patricia Illingworth’s short, powerful and passionate book argues that 'social capital' should be an essential ethical concept guiding our actions, and explains how one might go about implementing this idea in a positive way.

In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the ethics of our treatment of animals. Philosophers have led the way, and now a range of other scholars have followed from historians to social scientists. From being a marginal issue, animals have become an emerging issue in ethics and in multidisciplinary inquiry. This series will explore the challenges that Animal Ethics poses, both conceptually and practically, to traditional understandings of human-animal relations.
An Introduction to Animals and Visual Culture Randy Malamud, Professor of English, Georgia State University, USA
A fascinating exploration of the way in which animals are ‘framed’ - contextualized, decontextualized - in contemporary visual culture. Written in a highly engaging style, this book challenges the field, dealing with some highly controversial aspects of animal exploitation and boldly examines material that is seldom discussed within animal studies.

Animals and Public Health Why Treating Animals Better is Critical to Human Welfare Aysha Akhtar, Medical Officer, US Food and Drug Administration, USA
‘In this book Aysha Akhtar accomplishes what no other recent author has managed to do in a book on human health: provide a cogent and balanced argument for the importance of accepting the intimate relationship between humans and other animals for our own health, that of other animals, and of the planet.’ - Lori Marino, Emory University, USA '...will be a leading work in this area of animal ethics.’ - Tom Beauchamp, Professor of Philosophy and Senior Research Scholar, Kennedy Institute of Ethics, Georgetown University, USA A compelling argument of how human health is adversely affected by our poor treatment of non-human animals. The author contents that in order to successfully confront the Twenty-first Century’s health challenges, we need to broaden the definition of the word ‘public’ in public health to include non-human animals.

Animals, Equality and Democracy
An Introduction to Animals and the Law Siobhan O’Sullivan, Research Fellow, University of Melbourne, Australia
‘In Animals, Equality, and Democracy, Siobhan O’Sullivan appeals to democratic values to argue that the way we treat many animals is unjustifiable, even when judged by the standards that citizens of most democracies already accept. This is an engagingly fresh approach to the issue of animal equality, and I hope it will be widely discussed.’ Peter Singer, Princeton University, USA Animals, Equality and Democracy examines the structure of animal protection legislation and finds that it is deeply inequitable, with a tendency to favour those animals the community is most likely to see and engage with. Siobhan O’Sullivan argues that these inequities violate fundamental principle of justice and transparency.

Julinna C. Oxley, Assistant Professor of Philosophy, Coastal Carolina University, USA
‘Oxley’s book The Moral Dimensions of Empathy constitutes a remarkably wide-ranging and comprehensive study of the function of empathy in ethical contexts. Oxley’s astute and measured exploration of this subject matter makes it a rewarding read for philosophers and researchers in the social sciences.’- Karsten Stueber, College of the Holy Cross, USA Does empathy help us to be moral?

Sidgwick and Contemporary Utilitarianism
The Triple Helix: The Soul of Bioethics
Mariko Nakano-Okuno, Clinical Assistant Professor of Clinical Medicine (Bioethics), The Ohio State University, USA
Lisa Bellantoni, Associate Professor of Philosophy, Albright College, USA
A rare academic study on what John Rawls, Peter Singer and Derek Parfit acknowledge as the finest book in ethics – The Methods of Ethics. With a rather shocking conclusion that ‘none of us can match Sidgwick’, Mariko Nakano-Okuno lucidly analyzes Henry Sidgwick’s impacts on contemporary ethics.
Lisa Bellantoni argues that contemporary bioethics divides into two logically incommensurable positions: a cult of rights, which identifies the worth of human life with our autonomy, and a cult of life, which identifies human worth with the possession of a soul, and thereby, of human dignity.

Repression receives little attention in philosophical literature.

This book, now available in paperback, explores the intriguing idea that there is much more democracy in human history than is generally acknowledged.

An exploration of Immanuel Kant’s account of war and the controversies that have arisen from its interpretation.

International Political Theory Series Editor: Gary Browning
Global Theory from Kant to Hardt and Negri Gary Browning, Professor of Politics, Oxford Brookes University, UK
'The unique selling point of this thoughtful and well-written book is the range of material covered - Browning writes with authority on Kant, Hegel and Marx, on modern cosmopolitans such as Held, Giddens and Sassen, on radical theorists such as Hardt and Negri and public intellectuals such as Monbiot and Klein. His central thesis, that the first group of thinkers, the giants of modernity, have more to offer to their modern successors than the latter are often prepared to acknowledge, is entirely convincing.' - Professor Chris Brown, Professor of International Relations, London School of Economics and Politics, UK In the Twenty-first Century, global theory provides an influential and popular way of understanding contemporary social and political phenomena. This book observes the links between contemporary global ideas and preceding modern theories. Contemporary perspectives are shown to reflect distinctive and shared aspects of the ideas of Kant, Hegel and Marx. July 2011 Hardback

Contending that all contemporary theories of truth are too narrow, it argues for a novel conception of truth, by showing how error is implicated in the actions of all living things; and by analyzing uses of ‘true’ in non-linguistic contexts.

PHILOSOPHY OF ACTION · PHILOSOPHY OF SCIENCE PHILOSOPHY OF ACTION
The Things We Do and Why We Do Them Constantine Sandis, Lecturer in Philosophy, Oxford Brookes University, UK
'...Sandis’s rich and penetrating book not only demonstrates how these various conflations undermine the conclusions philosophers argue for, but also provides philosophers of action with a muchneeded road map for going forward. The Things We Do And Why We Do Them is a must read.' - Michael Smith, Princeton University, USA 'In this subtle book most of the leading contributors to the philosophy of action - and those who study behaviour more generally - will find themselves chastised for committing one or more of the twenty conflations that are listed at the front.' - Jonathan Dancy, University of Texas at Austin, USA The Things We Do and Why We Do Them argues against the common assumption that there is one thing called ‘action’ which all reason-giving explanations of action are geared towards. Sandis shows why all theories concerned with identifying the nature of our ‘real’ reasons for action fail from the outset. Contents: Preface / Acknowledgments / Analytic Table of Contents / 20 Conflating Views to Avoid / The Objectives of Action Explanation / Conflation in Action / What Makes An Explanation Proper? / The Operation of Reasons / Nested Explanations / The Structure of Agential Explanation / Spheres of Explanation / Appendix I - The Ontology of Action / Appendix II - Thought and Motive in Historiography / Bibliography / Index / December 2011 248pp 23 illustrations and 4 figures Hardback £55.00
Action and Existence A Case For Agent Causation James Swindal, Acting Dean, McAnulty College, Duquesne University, USA
Since the pioneering work of Donald Davidson on action, many philosophers have taken critical stances on his causal account. This book criticizes Davidson’s event-causal view of action, and offers instead an agent causal view both to describe what an action is and to set a framework for how actions are explained. Contents: Introduction: Action, Thought, Pragmatism / Neo-Pragmatism and its Critics / Methodology: Reconstructive Dialectics / A History of Action Theory / Defining Actions / The Explanation of Action / A Material Explication of Agency / Agency and Existence / Bibliography / Endnotes November 2011 216pp Hardback £50.00

Humanity 2.0
A Naturalistic Reconstruction of the Humanities
What it Means to be Human Past, Present and Future
Jan Faye, Associate Professor of Philosophy, University of Copenhagen, Denmark
The philosophy of the humanistic sciences has been a blind-spot in analytic philosophy. This book argues that by adopting an appropriate pragmatic analysis of explanation and interpretation it is possible to show that scientific practice of humanistic sciences can be understood on similar lines to scientific practice of natural and social sciences.

PHILOSOPHY OF TECHNOLOGY · CONTINENTAL PHILOSOPHY
Karl Marx on Technology and Alienation Amy Wendling, Assistant Professor of Philosophy, Creighton University, USA
‘In this excellent book Wendling advances this debate very substantially by setting Marx’s discussion of alienation in the context of the Nineteenth Century (and later) attitude to the development of machinery...in my opinion anyone who writes at any length about alienation in Marx must address her work seriously and in depth.’ Mark Cowling, Studies in Marxism Now available in paperback. Drawing on lesser known archival material, including Marx’s notebooks on women and patriarchy and Marx’s notebooks on technology, Wendling offers a new interpretation of Marx’s concept of alienation as this concept develops in his later works.

This reconstruction of the work of ‘dialectical memory’ in Hegel raises the fundamental question of the principle that presides on the articulation of history and indicates in Hegel’s philosophy two alternative models of conceiving history: one that grounds history on ‘ethical memory,’ the other that sees justice as the moving principle of history.

Beyond Humanism The Flourishing of Life, Self and Other Bart Nooteboom, Professor of Innovation Policy, Tilburg University, The Netherlands

Seeing Nature as Creation
A Conspiracy of Hope
Recasting the Problem of Evil
'This is a marvelous book. Gleeson’s suggestion that it is God’s love, not His moral goodness, that should occupy central place in our thinking gives to the problem of evil a shape radically different from that familiar in contemporary philosophy of religion. But the significance of the book reaches well beyond these issues: for Gleeson’s approach challenges the conventional distinction between an intellectual and an ‘existential’ enquiry – between the philosopher and the human being – that will be of interest to any philosopher who is seriously concerned about the character of his or her work.' - David Cockburn, University of Wales Trinity Saint David’s, UK A Frightening Love radically rethinks God and evil. It rejects theodicy and its impersonal conception of reason and morality. Faith survives evil through a miraculous love that resists philosophical rationalization. Authors criticised include Alvin Plantinga, Richard Swinburne, Marilyn McCord Adams, Peter van Inwagen, John Haldane, William Hasker.

An Ongoing Engagement with John Hick Edited by Sharada Sugirtharajah, Senior Lecturer in Hindu Studies, University of Birmingham, UK
‘John Hick’s wide ranging and important contributions to the philosophy of religion are fittingly recognised in these essays. Collectively and individually, they testify to the enduring significance of Hick’s treatment of such issues as religious pluralism, the problem of evil and the nature of salvation. They will be of interest to students of religion in general and of John Hick in particular.’ - Peter Byrne, Emeritus Professor of Ethics and the Philosophy of Religion, King’s College London, UK A fascinating collection of essays by leading scholars in the field engage with the idea of religious pluralism mooted by John Hick to offer incisive insights on religious pluralism and related themes and to address practical aspects such as interreligious spirituality and worship in a multifaith context.

'Not only is this book a wonderful introduction to what faith-based social action contributes to the UK today, it also puts forward a striking and significant argument. Dinham suggests that the notion of 'social capital', fashionable with policy-makers and faith groups alike, has been so hollowed out that it fails to make sense of faith's distinctive contributions to society - good and bad.' - Linda Woodhead, Professor of the Sociology of Religion, Lancaster University and Director of the AHRC/ESRC Religion and Society Programme, UK This book explores what becomes of faiths when seen as social capital. In the grip of the current debt crisis, where the social and capital seem increasingly unbalanced, Dinham examines whether faiths can help rebalance society through drawing communities together.

Gundrane, Senior Vice President for Health and Welfare Ministries for Methodist Healthcare; Director for the Interfaith Health Program, Rollins School of Public Health, Emory University, USA and James R. Cochrane, Professor of Religious Studies, University of Cape Town, South Africa

Its lucid discussion of theoretical issues will be an indispensible resource for students and researchers in this field.’ - Eugenia Siapera, The American Journal of Islamic Social Sciences This book analyzes the discourses and deliberations in the discussion forums of three of the most visited Islamic websites and investigates the extent to which they have provided a venue for Muslims to freely engage in discussion among themselves and with non-Muslims about political, economic, religious and social issues.

Adis Duderija, PostDoctoral Appointment, Centre for Muslim States and Societies, University of Western Australia
Ahmad Atif Ahmad, Associate Professor of Religious Studies, University of California, Santa Barbara, USA
The Fatigue of the Shari’a places on a continuum two kinds of debates: debates in the Islamic tradition about the end of access to divine guidance and debates in modern scholarship in Islamic legal studies about the end of the Shari’a. The resulting continuum covers what access to divine guidance means and how it relates to Shari’a. April 2012 Hardback

There appears to be a hierarchy of cultures with the West perceiving the East as inferior, so much so that it is referred to simply as ‘the Other’. Because today’s world is globally interdependent, interwoven, and integrative, it is pertinent to be open to the cultural, spiritual, and religious understandings of the East September 2011 200pp Hardback £55.00

The book investigates three situations in the Catholic Church that point to Catholicism’s weak spot: the role of women in the Church. Zagano sheds light on the Catholic Church’s hierarchicallyimposed laws that keep women at a distance from the holy, whether as liturgical ministers, as wives of priests, or as priests themselves.

Sacred Humanism Without Miracles
The Battle for the Soul A Comparative Analysis in an Age of Doubt
Responding to the New Atheists Roy G. Saltman, retired computer scientist and an expert in voting technology
The New Atheists’ claim that religion always leads to fanaticism is baseless. State-backed religion results in tyranny. Sacred humanists work to implement their highest values that will improve this world; separation of church and state, eliminating denigration of nonbelievers, assuring just governance, and preventing human trafficking.

The God/Man/World Triangle A Dialogue Between Science and Religion Robert Crawford, Associate Lecturer, Open University, UK; Minister of the United Reformed Church in England
Robert Crawford, Associate Lecturer, Open University, UK; Minister of the United Reformed Church in England
Do we all possess a soul? If so, what is it? Can it be defined? Crawford argues that it is important that we have a soul because if it is immortal then we can hope for life after death. But some religions insist that it is the resurrection of the body which is vital. How can the belief in an immortal soul and resurrection of the body be reconciled? Crawford attempts to answer this question in the context of six world religions and the science and technology of twenty-first century society. Contents: The Jewish Soul / The Christian Experience / The Soul and the Development of Christian Belief / The Muslim Claim / The Hindu and the Immortal Soul / The Buddhist Denial / The Sikh Path / The Philosopher and the Soul / Can We Avoid Dualism of Body and Soul? / Did Darwin Kill the Soul? / After Darwin / The Darwinians / The Way Forward September 2011 288pp Hardback £55.00

This ground-breaking series presents a cumulative and progressive set of original studies that substantially raise the bar for rigorous scholarship in the field of Islamic Studies. By relying on original sources and challenging common scholarly stereotypes and inherited wisdoms, the volumes of the series attest to the exacting and demanding methodological and pedagogical standards necessary for contemporary studies of Islam
p 39
Already published
While the relationship of religion and power is a perennial topic, it only continues to grow in importance and scope in our increasingly globalized and diverse world. This new series is a place for both studies of particular problems in the relation of religion and power as well as for more general interpretations of this relation, demonstrating the growing recognition that religion can no longer be studied without the study of power.
