What's In A Name? Reflections on Language, Magic and Religion

What's In A Name? Reflections on Language, Magic and Religion

by G . A . Wells (Author)

Synopsis

Wells identifies influential mistakes about language embedded in the empiricist philosophical tradition of Locke, Russell and Ayer. He shows how these errors stimulated a religious backlash, in which faith became coupled with commonsense realism. He also covers behaviourism and magical thinking.
