In recent years,motivated reasoninghas received significant attention across numerous areas of philosophy, including political philosophy, social philosophy, epistemology, moral psychology, philosophy of science, even metaphysics. At the heart of much of this interest is the idea that motivated reasoning (e.g., rationalization, wishful thinking, and self-deception) isproblematic, that it runs afoul of epistemic normativity, or is otherwise irrati…

A unique coalition between two NGOs (Oxfam GB and the Refugee Council) and a trade union (the Transport and General Workers' Union—TGWU) led to a concerted campaign agains…
What older people say: Will NHS reforms and the National Service Framework address the concerns of older people
This article explores older people's priorities for health and social care, noting a close relationship between those systems and the role to be played by housing services as the third vital branch of care. The article frames the debate within the context of the reforms of the NHS and social care, which provide an opportunity to ensure that services take account of the needs of the whole person on a multi‐disciplinary basis
