Description: Empathy : Philosophical and Psychological Perspectives, Paperback by Coplan, Amy (EDT); Goldie, Peter (EDT), ISBN 0198706421, ISBN-13 9780198706427, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Empathy has for a long time, at least since the eighteenth century, been seen as centrally important in relation to our capacity to gain a grasp of the content of other peoples minds, and predict and explain what they will think, feel, and do; and in relation to our capacity to respond to
others ethically. In addition, empathy is seen as having a central role in aesthetics, in the understanding of our engagement with works of art and with fictional characters. A fuller understanding of empathy is now offered by the interaction of research in science and the humanities. Empathy:
Philosophical and Psychological Perspectives draws together nineteen original chapters by leading researchers across several disciplines, together with an extensive Introduction by the editors. The individual chapters reveal how important it is, in a wide range of fields of enquiry, to bring to bear
an understanding of the role of empathy in its various guises. This volume offers the ideal starting-point for the exploration of this intriguing aspect of human life.
