Modern Philosophy

Do you find yourself still hurting emotionally from criticism, feelings of unworthiness, uncertainty, and guilt? Do you think your life has lost its significance, and you are confused about where you go from here? Are you employed in a dead-end job, with no hope for improvement? Are your current relationships with the same type of negative thinkers you usually find in your life? Is your existing corporate culture detrimental to the success of your employees and company?

"Verfall und Wiederaufbau der Kultur" bildet den ersten Teil der kulturphilosophischen Schriften des großen Theologen, Arztes und Musikers Albert Schweitzer. Dem Band liegen Gastvorlesungen Schweitzers an der Universität Uppsala im Frühjahr 1920 zugrunde, er ist aber auch heute, fast hundert Jahre später, noch immer von zeitloser Aktualität.

Sun Tzu was a famous Chinese general whose mastery of strategy was so exceptional that he reportedly transformed 180 courtesans into skilled soldiers in a single training session. While that episode was likely exaggerated, historians agree that Sun Tzu defeated the Ch'u, Qi, and Chin states for King Ho-Lu, forging his empire. With methods so powerful they can conquer an adversary's spirit, you can use Master Tzu's strategies to overcome any challenge, from warfare to self-defense to business negotiations.

David Hume es considerado el filósofo en lengua inglesa más importante que jamás haya existido. Sin embargo, en vida se le atacó por su escepticismo religioso, se le llamó el Gran Infiel y se le consideró inapto para instruir a los jóvenes. Adam Smith, en cambio, fue un profesor reverenciado de filosofía moral y a menudo se le ensalza como padre fundador del capitalismo. Lo más asombroso, con todo, es que los dos mantuvieron, según lo define Rasmussen, la amistad más grande que se conoce entre dos filósofos.

Science and violence converge in modern warfare. While the finest minds of the 20th century have improved human life, they have also produced human injury. They engineered radar, developed electronic computers, and helped mass produce penicillin all in the context of military mobilization. Scientists also developed chemical weapons, atomic bombs, and psychological warfare strategies. Rational Fog explores the quandary of scientific and technological productivity in an era of perpetual war.

How is it that, half a century after Brown v. Board of Education, educational opportunities remain so unequal for black and white students, not to mention poor and wealthy ones? In his important new book, Five Miles Away, a World Apart, James E. Ryan answers this question by tracing the fortunes of two schools in Richmond, Virginia - one in the city and the other in the suburbs. Ryan shows how court rulings in the 1970s, limiting the scope of desegregation, laid the groundwork for the sharp disparities between urban and suburban public schools that persist to this day.

Wer bist du wirklich? Was ist deine Lebensaufgabe? Wie schaffst du es, Frieden, Erfüllung und innere Heilung zu finden? Geht es um die Harmonie mit sich selbst und dem ganzen Universum, stoßen sowohl zeitgenössische Selbstoptimierungsprogramme als auch therapeutische Verfahren an ihre Grenzen. Heilrituale, Trance und Seelenarbeit der Schamanen sind traditionelle Mittel, die es erlauben, in die Ganzheit zu kommen. Für die Weltgesundheitsorganisation (WHO) hat der Schamanismus bei psychischen und psychosomatischen Erkrankungen die gleiche Bedeutung wie die westliche Schulmedizin.

Sometimes our understanding of our universe is given a huge boost by one insightful thinker. Such a boost came in the first half of the 20th century, when an obscure Belgian priest put his mind to deciphering the nature of the cosmos. The Day Without Yesterday covers the modern history of an evolving universe, and how Georges Lemaître convinced a generation of thinkers to embrace the notion of cosmic expansion and the theory that this expansion could be traced backward to the cosmic origins, a starting point for space and time that Lemaître called "the day without yesterday".

En El mapa fantasma se cuenta la historia de la aterradora epidemia de cólera que envolvió Londres en 1854 y sus dos héroes poco probables: el anestesista doctor John Snow y el afable clérigo, el reverendo Henry Whitehead, quienes derrotaron la enfermedad mediante una combinación de conocimiento local, investigación científica y elaboración de mapas.

Karl Marx, penseur révolutionnaire au sens propre. Ses travaux ont marqué l'Histoire et considérablement influencé le XXe siècle à travers le communisme.

Ces 100 citations vous familiariseront avec son œuvre, sa doctrine, et son style tranchant.

"All desires are a disguise covering up one real desire: the desire to be free." In this conversation, the biggest misconceptions about enlightenment are exposed. OM talks about the distinction between awakening experiences and enlightenment, which are often lumped together. The essential focus is to distinguish whether something is a fleeting, short-lived experience, or an enduring, permanent state. He shares from his wealth of experience about his own awakening process. He names various pitfalls that spiritual seekers repeatedly fall into on their quest.

Your intellectual freedom is at stake, threatened by everything from academia and Big Tech to the media and government. Fortunately, you have a way to take back personal control, and it’s a solution founded upon ancient philosophy. In Restoring Reason, philosopher Dr. Travis Corcoran demonstrates how the liberal arts provide us with a skillset to evaluate knowledge and draw our own conclusions for clarity, confidence, and freedom.

Zur Geschichte der moralischen Empfindungen: Das zweite Hauptstück des ersten Bandes von Nietzsches philosophischer Schrift "Menschliches, Allzumenschliches".

Warum sind wir nach über 300 Jahren der Aufklärung noch immer fast genau so dumm wie zuvor? Wieland weilt zwar nicht mehr unter uns, aber er ahnte es bereits voraus: Weil alles, was uns nicht genehm ist oder nicht unseren Vorstellungen oder Überzeugungen entspricht abgelehnt, bestritten und beschimpft wird. Warum wird unseren Kindern nach wie vor kein Wissen vermittelt? Warum fehlt es Nationalstaaten wie Bürgern von Demokratien nach wie vor an Vernunft?

"Pour chanter les vingt ans du Pommier, mon éditrice me demanda d'écrire quelques lignes. Les voici. Pour une fois, j'y entre en morale, comme en terre nouvelle et inconnue, sur la pointe des pieds. On disait jadis de l'Arlequin de mes rêves, bienheureux comédien de l'art, qu'il corrigeait les mœurs en riant."

Postmodernism claims that "modernity", which grew from the Enlightenment to the Industrial Revolution and Marxism, has collapsed. We now live in an endlessly "contemporary" culture, a virtual world of "hyperreality" containing such strange phenomena as post-Holocaust amnesia, Disneyland, cyberspace, and Fukuyama's proclaimed "end of history".
