Clarendon Press, 1989. Christopher Peacocke is Waynflete Professor of Metaphysical Philosophy. This is his inaugural lecture, delivered before the University of Oxford on 16 May 1989. After paying tribute to his predecessor, Professor Peacocke notes certain affinities between the theory of content on which he has been working in the past few years and Kant's views. He goes on to argue that sound trancedental arguments can be validated within the theory of content he endorses. The argument proceeds from the nature of the representational content of experience. This content should be given in part by a spatial type, the type which the experience represents as instantiated. | Very good blue card covers, 27 pages, slight bumping to cover and label residue to rearcover | Independent Suffolk seller | photo available on request | I dispatch books each working day | Kind regards, Tina - Waveney Books.

Methuen, 1969 1969 hardcover + dustjacket. Very good condition. Attractive grey, black & gilt cloth covered boards. Book clean, crisp & bright. Dustjacket mildly grubby & slightly chipped at edges | Susan Isaacs embarked upon a series of lectures in infant school education at Darlington Training College, in logic at the University of Manchester, and in psychology at the University of London. In 1914, she married William Broadhurst Brierley, a botany lecturer. A year later they moved to London where she became tutor to the Workers’ Educational Association (WEA) and, from 1916, lectured in psychology at the University of London. In 1922 she divorced Brierly and married Nathan Isaacs (1895-1966), a metallurgist who collaborated with Susan in her later work. Susan also trained and practiced as a psychoanalyst after analysis by the psychoanalyst John Carl Flugel (1884–1955). She became an associate member of the newly formed British Psychoanalytical Society in 1921, becoming a full member in 1923. She began her own practice that same year.[3] She later underwent brief analysis with Otto Rank and in 1927 she submitted herself to further analysis with Joan Riviere to get personal experience and understanding of Melanie Klein's new ideas on infancy. Isaacs also helped popularise the works and Klein as the theories of Jean Piaget and Sigmund Freud. She was initially enthusiastic for Jean Piaget's theories on the intellectual development of young children, though she later criticised his schemas for stages of cognitive development, which were not based on the observation of the child in their natural environment, unlike her own observations at Malting House School. Between 1924 and 1927 she was Head of Malting House School, Cambridge, an experimental school founded by Geoffrey Pyke, which fostered the individual development of children. Children were given greater freedom and were supported rather than punished. The teachers were seen as observers of the children who were seen as research workers. Her work had a great influence on early education and made play a central part of a child’s education. Between 1929 and 1940 she was an 'agony aunt' under the pseudonym of 'Ursula Wise', replying to readers' problems in several child care journals, notably The Nursery World and Home and School..
