On the Limits to the Use of Force
In this paper I shall examine a variety of situations in which human agents make use of force. Section I will be concerned with the use of force in medical contexts, Section Ii with the use of force in defence of property, and Section in with the use of force in resolving international disputes. I shall argue that the boundary between what is and is not morally permissible needs to be, drawn more stringently than is commonly supposed. While agree…
The Effects of a Dyslexia‐centred Teaching Programme
S ummary . Results are presented for 107 retarded children who received tuition by means of a ‘dyslexia‐centred’ programme. In 41 cases the teaching was organised by a hospital clinic, in 44 cases by a unit attached to a university department, and in 22 cases by a private body, these three centres being different in many other ways but alike in that all took the concept of dyslexia seriously. It is argued that in suitable conditions such teaching…
The Effects of Pictures on Learning to Read
S ummary . 20 children learned to read single words that were presented together with (i) a picture of the object named by the word, (ii) a picture of an object unrelated to the word, (iii) a ‘nonsense’ picture not resembling any object, and (iv) no picture of any kind. Presence of an appropriate picture resulted in significantly fewer correct responses than any other condition. The no‐picture condition was the most favourable for learning to rea…

On Excluding the Supernatural
Various attempts have been made in recent years to present Christianity in such a way that no use is made of the traditional dichotomy between the ‘natural’ and the ‘supernatural’. Braithwaite, Hare, and van Buren, for instance, appear to have no use for the dichotomy; and I think that, without too much distortion, one can say the same of Bultmann, Tillich, and Robinson. I am not, however, concerned in this paper with the work of any one thinker …

S ummary .— In offering what purport to be definitions of intelligence, psychologists do not always seem to have worked out what sense of the word ‘definition’ they have in mind. Six possible senses of the word ‘definition’ are here distinguished. Each sense is then discussed with special reference to the problem of defining intelligence. In the light of the distinctions made, the definitions of intelligence offered by Wechsler and Burt are criti…
