Quote:Those actually interested in Piaget's epistemology (as opposed to his developmental psychology) should read "The Principles of Genetic Epistemology" (Tanslated by Wolfe Mays, RKP 1972)
Extensions of Piaget's epistemology with particular reference to language are found in the Santiago Theory of Cognition (Maturana). A useful introductory text with respect this is
how about some books criticising piagets epistemology or are you unaware of any
or are you just a one eyed fanatic of him who cannot see his flaws
here is one
Piaget's Logic: A Critique of Genetic Epistemology by Muriel Seltman, Peter Seltman
the naturalistic epistemology recognises the non-reducibility of epistemic norms to empirical facts but insists none the less- that epistemic norms supervene on psychological fact
more ammunicion for dean to send piaget to the meaninglessness void
my comment about philosophy being ideology seems very true in your case
any one who things so much is as some one said imprisioned in their rationality
they must have experienced some trauma to be so preoccupied with thinking out systems-some mental disturbance-winnicott the psychoanylist argued thinking was due to trauma
freud even called it epistemophila - driven by an infantile voyuerism
so people why you going to waste your time studying plowing through this guys volumouse tomes to expolore his fetish or neurouses let alone to discover what dean says ie he ends in meaninglessness any way
