book
posted on 2023-07-26, 13:44 authored by John A. Lambie
An account of how to see another person's point of view while remaining critical – in other words how to be 'critically open-minded'. Using examples from history and psychology, Lambie explores the implications of critical open-mindedness for scientific and moral progress. The thinking styles of Jesus, Erasmus, Galileo, and the Levellers are explored, and psychological research on rationality, political decision making, and scientific reasoning is also examined.
