Consciousness Science

Most nerve cells in the outermost layers of the brain end blindly, without any continuing nerve connections. Baumann investigates the possibilities underlying this peculiar medical observation and suggests that these neurons are the very beacons of our human awareness and consciousness.

Join the author on a journey into the mystical realm of electromagnetism and the proven phenomena which allow our infinitesimally weak brainwaves to radiate into space and circle the globe several times over.

Le questioni principali di questo volume - pubblicato nel 1894, quando Steiner ottenne il dottorato di filosofia a Rostock - riguardano il ruolo della filosofia, considerata quale arte, nei riguardi della libertà umana; che cosa sia quest'ultima.

La "filosofia della libertà" è la base filosofica degli scritti posteriori di Steiner . In questo volume si è tentato di mostrare che l'esperienza del pensare, giustamente compresa, è già un'esperienza spirituale.

La Robustesse est la capacité de faire face aux épreuves, d'agir avec courage et d'accomplir le nécessaire à temps. Nous vivons dans un monde de manque et d'excès, et le seul miracle, la vie, n'existe que gr'ce à l'équilibre. Cet équilibre est fragile : la toute-puissance de l'homme menace de le détruire. Les produits industriels transformés dérobent les nutriments et le goût naturel de notre alimentation.

Robustness is the ability to deal with stress tests, to act with courage, and to accomplish the necessary while there is time. We live in a world of deficiencies and excesses, and the only miracle - life - exists thanks to balance. Robustness embarks the listener on a hedonist manifesto, a joint venture reconciling the divided domains of science and philosophy.

What is human happiness and how can we promote it? These questions are central to human existence and Happiness Explained draws on scientific research from economics, psychology, and philosophy, as well as a range of other disciplines, to outline a new paradigm in which human flourishing plays a central role in the assessment of national and global progress. It shows why the traditional national income approach is limited as a measure of human wellbeing.

Each of us is a conscious individual living in the world. Very occasionally we have experiences so bizarre we have difficulty understanding what occurred. The Lantern in the Skull explores a selection of these unsettling yet intriguing experiences.

Haberci', Cibran'ın ikinci kitabı olmasının yanında, meramını çizgilerle resmeden sanatçının, sözcükleri ustalıkla kullanan bir bilge kişiye dönüşmesinin de habercisidir. Geniş bakış açılı, daha derin bir bilgelik; sıcak, yumuşak bir sevecenlik taşıyan, yine de kontrollu bir ironiye sahip, bir çoğu güncelliğini yitirmeyen meseller. Aşk ve özlem dalgasıyla yazılmış, Ermiş'e açılan kapının eşiği ve anahtarı olan kitap."Ve biz, güneş ve dünya, daha büyük bir güneşin ve daha büyük bir dünyanın başlangıcıyız. Ve biz her zaman başlangıç olacağız.

Perché ci sono così tanti bicorni e nessun unicorno, se un corno è più semplice di due? Heidegger raccomandava ai suoi uditori di accostarsi a quella immensa e candida supercazzola che è lo "Zarathustra" con la stessa dedizione e pensosità riservata ai trattati aristotelici, Ferraris avanza analoga richiesta per unicorni, bicorni, ornitorinchi, e per la supercazzola vera e propria, quella di Tognazzi in "Amici miei". Margini o briciole di filosofia, queste entità minori riservano più scoperte che Essere, Nulla e Divenire.

This is a work which challenges the agnostic and atheistic attitudes of modern science. As Gopi Krishna assesses the situation, “I know that Revelation has been right in predicting a glorious spiritual destiny for mankind and Reason has been grievously wrong. The marvels of technology we see around us, beyond a certain limit that has been passed, can become a prison for the evolving human mind.”

How did the human mind emerge from the collection of neurons that makes up the brain? How did the brain acquire self-awareness, functional autonomy, language, and the ability to think, to understand itself and the world?

Figura central de las fundaciones David Lynch y Maharishi, neurocientífico graduado en Harvard, reconocido erudito védico y referente mundial de la Meditación Trascendental™, el Dr. Tony Nader formula en este libro una serie de preguntas existenciales fundamentales (¿cuál es nuestro propósito en la vida?, ¿tenemos verdadero control sobre nuestros destinos?) y, a través del estudio de la Conciencia, nos acerca respuestas con beneficios prácticos que aspiran a darnos esclarecimiento, paz y plenitud.

The core concept of this illuminating book is that the core of human existence is self-consciousness. What we are depends on what choices we make and what we do. Dominant personality traits primarily drive our life decisions. In the fields of psychology, philosophy, biology, and artificial intelligence, self-awareness is studied. From a philosophical point of view, self-awareness reflects the apparent belief that a person is distinct from others as an entity and has his or her thoughts. It can also describe the awareness of one's own identity's very heart.

Les chemins mystérieux de la mémoire, de la pensée et de la conscience. Par quel mystère est ce que je perçois, je traite des informations et j'agis ? Partant de l'observation comparée de deux patients, l'un atteint d'une maladie de Parkinson, l'autre d'une maladie d'Alzheimer, Yves Agid déroule un scénario captivant qui nous entraîne sur les chemins de la mémoire, de la pensée, de la conscience et de l'émotion, ces facultés immatérielles "sécrétées" par l'organe le plus complexe du corps humain. L'organisation du cerveau expliquée en détail.

The new field of evolutionary philosophy, unlike its aborted predecessors of the past, is primarily concerned with understanding why Homo sapiens are philosophical in the first place. It is not focused on advocating some specific future reform, but rather in uncovering why humans are predisposed to ask so many questions which, at least at the present stage, cannot be answered.

"L'exercice philosophique a pour enjeu l'insaisissable nous privant du délai qui assure la sécurité de la pensée et du discours". Vladimir Jankélévitch. "Rien n'est moins subtil, rien n'est moins systématique au fond que cette vision du monde derrière laquelle se cache une expérience douloureuse. Jamais cette pensée n'est figée, solidifiée dans une rhétorique implacable, au contraire l'oralité confère le jaillissement, la spontanéité, la redite." Françoise Schwab.
