• William A. Dembski is noted as a proponent of ‘Intelligent Design’, and therefore a villain in the philosophical and scientific circles in which I move.
• See Wikipedia: William A. Dembski.
• However, one day, it may be worth reading what he has to say on the human condition.

• This may be a variant of "Hasker (William) - The Case for Emergent Dualism". I couldn’t find its provenance.

• While this has something to say about animals, and the suggestion that they have intuitions but lack concepts, it is mostly about Kant.

• A purely administrative piece, but it might be worth checking out this issue of Philosophy if I haven’t already!
  |1|The papers were delivered in 2006, published in 2008.

• I think the papers from these issues have already been logged.
• Double-check.

The papers in this "Pseudo-book" are too many to show their Abstracts in a concatenated list, nor is this useful. For the list of papers (from which the Abstracts can be found) follow this link. If this is a multi-volume pseudo-book, for the other volumes follow the links from the pseudo-author "Various" in the heading at the top of the page.
