"Word and Object"
In this book Quine examines the role of an implicit social or conceptual interaction between man and the natural world. Quine believes that there exists a reality separate from our conception of it. He argues, however, that as science interacts with this reality it imposes an interpretation depending upon the language that attempts to describe said reality. He argues that we cannot hope to incontrovertibly separate objective reality from our own conceptual interpretation of it. -
"Epistemology Naturalized"
"Epistemology, or something like it, simply falls into place as a chapter of psychology and hence of natural science" (Quine 82). This paper marks the birth of contemporary naturalistic philosophy. Quine advocates the implementation of scientific ideas in the philosophy of science. He argues that science can be seen as the study of natural phenomena by man, and that the interpretations thereof can and should be attributed to the fundamental psychology of man. -
