Philosophical Explanations

''Philosophical Explanations'' is a 1981 metaphysical, epistemological, and ethical treatise by Robert Nozick.
==Summary==
Nozick discusses problems in the philosophy of mind, ethics, epistemology, and metaphysics.〔 The issues Nozick explores include personal identity, knowledge, free will, value, the meaning of life,〔 and scepticism.〔
Observing that philosophers often seek to deduce their total view from a few basic principles, showing how everything follows from their intuitively based axioms, Nozick compares such an approach to building a tower by piling one brick on top of another: if the brick at the bottom crumbles or is removed, everything collapses, and even the insights that were independent of the starting point are lost. He suggests instead that the Parthenon should be the model for philosophy, and advocates an explanatory model of philosophical activity rather than an argumentative or coercive one.〔Nozick 1981. pp. 3-4.〕
In the Parthenon model, separate philosophical insights are placed one after another, like columns, and only afterwards are they united under a roof consisting of general principles or themes. That way, when the philosophical ground crumbles, something Nozick regards as likely, something of interest and beauty remains standing.〔Nozick 1981. p. 3.〕
