THE LOGIC OF CULTURES - PAUL TABORSKY KARTONIER...

This book proposes to identify three long-term structures in causal reasoning - in particular 
in terms of the relationship between cause and identity - that appear to be of value in
categorizing and organizing various trends in philosophical thought. Such conceptual schemes
involve a host of philosophical dilemmas (such as the problem of relativism)  which are
examined in the first chapter. A number of naturalistic and transcendental approaches to this
problem are also analysed. In particular  the book attempts to construct a theoretical basis
for Foucault's tripartite classification of epistemological structures in European thought. The
final chapter attempts to buttress the above schema by extending the analysis from cause and
identity to growth  change  and stability  critiquing certain ideas of Foucault and Heidegger 
as well as examining the contemporary thought of process philosophy and complexity theory.
