Описание: In this illuminating book, Joseph LaPorte argues that scientists do not discover that sentences about natural kinds, like `Whales are mammals, not fish`, are true rather than false. Instead, scientists find that these sentences were vague in the language of earlier speakers and they refine the meanings of the relevant natural-kind terms to make the sentences true.

Описание: Ron Mallon explores how thinking and talking about kinds of person can bring those kinds into being. He considers what normative implications this social constructionism has for our understanding of our practices of representing human kinds, like race, gender, and sexual orientation, and for our own agency.
