Philosophical Papers: Examination Of W. Hamilton�������s Logic; Reply To Mr. Mill�������s Third Edition; Present State Of Moral Philosophy In Britain (1868) is a collection of essays by James McCosh, a Scottish philosopher and theologian. The book consists of three essays, each dealing with a different topic in philosophy.The first essay is an examination of the logic of Sir William Hamilton, a Scottish philosopher known for his work on metaphysics and epistemology. McCosh critiques Hamilton's logic, arguing that it is flawed and inconsistent.The second essay is a response to John Stuart Mill's third edition of A System of Logic. McCosh disagrees with Mill's views on causality and induction, and argues that Mill's system of logic is incomplete and inadequate.The third essay examines the state of moral philosophy in Britain at the time of the book's publication. McCosh argues that moral philosophy has become too focused on utilitarianism and needs to return to a more traditional, virtue-based approach.Overall, Philosophical Papers: Examination Of W. Hamilton�������s Logic; Reply To Mr. Mill�������s Third Edition; Present State Of Moral Philosophy In Britain (1868) provides a comprehensive overview of McCosh's philosophical views and his criticisms of other prominent philosophers of his time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
