Understanding the Tacit by Stephen P. Turner (English) Paperback Book

Description: Understanding the Tacit by Stephen P. Turner Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description This volume explores the issue of tacit knowledge, showing how a topic that is central to cognitive science is relevant in important ways to science studies, social theory, and politics. Publisher Description This book outlines a new account of the tacit, meaning tacit knowledge, presuppositions, practices, traditions, and so forth. It includes essays on topics such as underdetermination and mutual understanding, and critical discussions of the major alternative approaches to the tacit, including Bourdieus habitus and various practice theories, Oakeshotts account of tradition, Quentin Skinners theory of historical meaning, Harry Collinss idea of collective tacit knowledge, as well as discussions of relevant cognitive science concepts, such as non-conceptual content, connectionism, and mirror neurons. The new account of tacit knowledge focuses on the fact that in making the tacit explicit, a person is not, as many past accounts have supposed, reading off the content of some sort of shared and fixed tacit scheme of presuppositions, but rather responding to the needs of the Other for understanding. Author Biography Stephen P. Turner is Distinguished University Professor of Philosophy at the University of South Florida.
