Timothy Chambers, Review of Teaching Plato In Palestine, By Carlos Fraenkel

Timothy Chambers, Review of Teaching Plato In Palestine

In: Teaching Philosophy (December 2016), pages 531-534. A pair of basic questions inspires Carlos Fraenkel's book: 1) "Can doing philosophy be useful outside the confines of academia?" 2) "Can philosophy help turn tensions that arise from diversity into a 'culture of constructive debate'?" This review sketches Fraenkel's project. Carlos Fraenkel

Timothy Chambers, Review of Science and the World, By Jeffrey E. Foss

Timothy Chambers, Review of Science and the World, By Jeffrey E. Foss

 Even a cursory review of the literature brings to light scores of articles treating the topic of “student relativism,” including several essays appearing in this journal.1 Not surprisingly, several commentators sense that student relativism finds a partial source in a thesis we might dub student positivism: the view, roughly, that “scientific knowledge . . . is the only valid knowledge.” (524) Stephen Satris, for instance, describes encountering a “typical student reaction . . . that while scientific facts (which can be proven) might be an exception, everything else—opinions, views, feelings, values, lifestyle, ideals, activities, religion, taste—is after all relative”; Richard Momeyer notes a similar student distinction between “those quantitative, ‘scientific’ areas of inquiry in which real knowledge is attainable (‘facts’), and those fields of inquiry not yet blessed by scientific method, such as philosophy, where all is a matter of (subjective) non-confirmable opinion.”2 If, as these authors suggest, a reflexive student relativism partially results from a simplistic view of the natural sciences, then this provides one strong motivation for texts which aim to provide, as does this anthology, “a philosophical introduction to science . . . ready-to-read by the average freshman straight out of high school.” (xiii) Foss has gone to great lengths in his effort to make this text so-“ready-to-read” by newcomers to academic philosophy.
