Thomas Nagel s contribution
to philosophy over the past forty years has been
enormously influential. In this book, the first sustained examination of Nagel s
ideas, Alan Thomas provides readers with a detailed exploration and interpreta¬
tion of Nagel s work in metaphysics, epistemology, philosophy of mind, ethics
and political philosophy. Thomas offers the reader an astute and extended
commentary that provides insight into Nagel s overall position as well as into
his contributions to occasional debates. This is combined with discussion of
other philosophers with whom
Nagel
has engaged over the course of his career.
Thomas s main interpretative claim is that
Nagel
develops two different ways of
understanding what it is to think objectively about a subject matter in a way that
forces philosophers to recognize the phenomenon of the radically
perspectivai.
Some ways of thinking and speaking, notably about the mind, have to be inter¬
preted as being ineliminably from a particular point of view.
Thomas begins by clarifying and defending Nagel s basic metaphysical contrast
between subjective and objective ways of thinking about the world and shows how
a proper understanding of radically
perspectivai
views of the world allows one to
defend some of Nagel s most important claims in philosophy. His influential work
in the philosophy of mind is traced from his early paper What is it Like to be a
Bat? to his recent defence of a form of dual aspect theory. Thomas then turns
to ethics, where Nagel s influence is pre-eminent, and traces the development of
Nagel s views from his contrast between subjective and objective reasons in his
early work on the possibility of altruism to his later hybrid ethical theory. The
volume concludes with an examination of
Nageľs
political philosophy and his
searching critique of the feasibility of John Rawls s theory of justice. Thomas s
approach allows the reader access not only to
Nageľs
thinking in all the basic
areas of philosophy, but also to how
Nageľs
ideas have developed, under what
pressures, and to what ends.
Alan Thomas is Senior Lecturer in Philosophy at the University of Kent.
