Description

Philosophy and the Mirror of NatureWhen it first appeared in 1979, Philosophy and the Mirror of Nature hit the philosophical world like a bombshell. In it, Richard Rorty argued that, beginning in the seventeenth century, philosophers developed an unhealthy obsession with the notion of representation: comparing the mind to a mirror that reflects reality. Rorty's book is a powerful critique of this imagery and the tradition of thought that it spawned. Today, the book remains a must read

When it first appeared in 1979, Philosophy and the Mirror of Nature hit the philosophical world like a bombshell. In it, Richard Rorty argued that, beginning in the seventeenth century, philosophers developed an unhealthy obsession with the notion of representation: comparing the mind to a mirror that reflects reality. Rorty's book is a powerful critique of this imagery and the tradition of thought that it spawned.


Today, the book remains a must-read and stands as a classic of twentieth-century philosophy. Its influence on the academy, both within philosophy and across a wide array of disciplines, continues unabated. This edition includes new essays by philosopher Michael Williams and literary scholar David Bromwich, as well as Rorty's previously unpublished essay The Philosopher as Expert.

Necessary
Size: 1 X Pack of 180
Let me pre-empt this with I’m single and travel a ton, so dishes and silverware don’t suit my lifestyle (don’t judge me I’m here to help) so these can be used just as well as stainless or silver cutlery. Very durable. Beware that they may show up with the lid not in tact, causing a small or moderate amount of them to bridge the container. Still, very much worth it.

High Quality
Size: 1 X Pack of 180
I'm so happy with this purchase because this set is very high quality and sturdy. I also like the container it comes in because it's very convenient to set out on a table for guests. I don't quite understand why there are less knives than forks because if you use this for a get together, most people will take one of each, so then you're left with a lot of forks. But then that container comes in handy for storing them! :)

Good size and sturdy
Size: 1 X Pack of 180
I was worried about ordering these online but took the chance and they are perfect. Perfect size and sturdy. Meaning they are very close to the size of my regular silverware and they don't break when trying to cut something with the side of the fork etc.

Eco-Friendly and Sturdy - Perfect for Any Occasion!
Size: 11*8in-100pack, Color: White
These plates are fantastic! The 5-compartment design is super convenient for keeping food separated, especially during parties or gatherings. They are incredibly sturdy and hold up well even with heavier meals—no bending or leaking at all! What makes them even better is that they are compostable and eco-friendly, so I feel good about using them without adding to environmental waste. The size is perfect, and they come in a generous pack of 100, making them great value for the price. Highly recommend these for anyone looking for durable and environmentally friendly disposable plates!
