Trade-offs, Transitivity, and Temkin

Journal of Moral Philosophy, 2015
In this essay I critically assess Larry S. Temkin’s new book, Rethinking the Good: Moral Ideals and the Nature of Practical Reasoning. While I find that there is much to praise about this work, I focus on two points of critique. Generally, Temkin’s aims in this book are to expose a radical tension in our beliefs about value, and to show that one ...

Electrocatalysis under Temkin adsorption conditions

Journal of the Chemical Society, Faraday Transactions 1: Physical Chemistry in Condensed Phases, 1987
The theoretical description of steady-state current–potential curves for simple electrocatalytic reactions under Temkin adsorption conditions has been extended beyond the potential range of quasi-equilibrium. The theory predicts that current–potential curves calculated on the basis of Langmuir and Temkin adsorption conditions exhibit only minor ...

On Larry Temkin’s Rethinking the Good

Journal of Moral Philosophy, 2015
This essay offers a critique of Larry Temkin’s seminal new book, Rethinking the Good, at the heart of which is the highly counterintuitive claim that all things considered judgments are not transitive. I evaluate Temkin’s claims through the lens of social choice theory, pursue some of its larger implications and applications, and conclude with a very ...

What Is Disease?: In Memory of Owsei Temkin

Bulletin of the History of Medicine, 2003
This essay outlines a contextual approach to disease (and thus medicine) in society. The work of Owsei Temkin is retrospectively evaluated and shown to rest on an assumed (if often implicit) contextualism. The key components of historical contextualism are then articulated, including the historicity of disease, the reification of specific disease ...

On the Temkin model of solid–liquid interface

Journal of Crystal Growth, 1999
Abstract The multilayer mean-field model of the solid–liquid interface (SLI) is studied. The nonequilibrium state diagram of the SLI is constructed on the basis of a continuum approach for diffuse SLIs. The kinetics of the SLI propagation in nonequilibrium conditions is considered; the dependence of the SLI velocity and the SLI width on the ...

Application of Temkin's Law to Polyionic Melts

Canadian Metallurgical Quarterly, 1981
Abstract Temkin's Law, as originally derived, refers to the situation in which anions or cations mix ideally in their separate matrices so that the free energy of mixing is determined solely by the number of possible mutual rearrangements of these ions on the anionic or cationic lattices.

Reform, not destroy: reply to McMahan, Sparrow and Temkin

Journal of Medical Ethics, 2013
I'm very grateful to receive such long and thoughtful responses from some of the world's most creative and influential moral philosophers. Since I largely agree with Jeff McMahan and Larry Temkin, I will devote most of my scarce space to Rob Sparrow. Sparrow earlier claimed that since women gestate and live longer, enhancers are committed to parents ...
