Many consider the nature of human consciousness to be one of the last great unsolved mysteries. Why should the light turn on, so to speak, in human beings at all? And how is the electrical storm of neurons under our skull connected with our consciousness? Is the self only our brain's user interface, a kind of stage on which a show is performed that we cannot freely direct? In this book, philosopher Markus Gabriel challenges an increasing trend in the sciences towards neurocentrism, a notion which rests on the assumption that the self is identical to the brain. Gabriel raises serious doubts as to whether we can know ourselves in this way. In a sharp critique of this approach, he presents a new defense of the free will and provides a timely introduction to philosophical thought about the self - all with verve, humor, and surprising insights. Gabriel criticizes the scientific image of the world and takes us on an eclectic journey of self-reflection by way of such concepts as self, consciousness, and freedom, with the aid of Kant, Schopenhauer, and Nagel but also Dr. Who, The Walking Dead, and Fargo.

French philosophy changed dramatically in the second quarter of the twentieth century. In the wake of World War I and, later, the Nazi and Soviet disasters, major philosophers such as Koj?ve, Levinas, Heidegger, Koyr?, Sartre, Merleau-Ponty, and Hyppolite argued that man could no longer fill the void left by the "death of God" without also calling up the worst in human history and denigrating the dignity of the human subject. In response, they contributed to a new belief that man should no longer be viewed as the basis for existence, thought, and ethics; rather, human nature became dependent on other concepts and structures, including Being, language, thought, and culture. This argument, which was to be paramount for existentialism and structuralism, came to dominate postwar thought. This intellectual history of these developments argues that at their heart lay a new atheism that rejected humanism as insufficient and ultimately violent.

Автор: Moncayo Название: Knowing, Not-Knowing, and Jouissance ISBN: 3319940023 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783319940021 Издательство: Springer Рейтинг: Цена: 130430.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: This book explores the practice and transmission of Lacanian and Freudian theory. It discusses the pure versus applied analysis of Lacanian and Freudian theory in practice; and the hierarchical versus circular transmissions within psychoanalytic organizations.Underpinned by extensive practical knowledge of the clinic, this work examines the differences between Freud and Lacan in their understanding of the subject and the unconscious and pushes them in new directions. The book also offers an analysis and commentary of several key Lacanian texts including an accessible study of the notoriously challenging text L'etourdit. Offering both divergent and reinforcing takes on Lacan, the author explores the traits that separate out the psychoanalyst from other twentieth-century thinkers and theorists. This book offers a clear clinical picture of where Lacanian psychoanalysis is today, both in the US and internationally.
Автор: Caputo, John D. Название: More radical hermeneutics : ISBN: 0253213878 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780253213877 Издательство: Wiley EDC Рейтинг: Цена: 20580.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: In these spirited essays, John D. Caputo continues the project he launched with Radical Hermeneutics of making hermeneutics and deconstruction work together. Caputo claims that we are not born into this world hard-wired to know Being, Truth, or the Good, and we are not vessels of a Divine or other omnipotent supernatural force. Focusing on how various contemporary philosophers develop aspects of this fragmented view of the life world in areas such as madness, friendship, democracy, gender, science, the "end of ethics," religion, and mysticism, this animated study by one of America's leading continental philosophers shakes the foundations of religion and philosophy, even as it gives them new life.
Although it has been almost seventy years since Time declared C.S. Lewis one of the world's most influential spokespersons for Christianity and fifty years since Lewis's death, his influence remains just as great if not greater today.
While much has been written on Lewis and his work, virtually nothing has been written from a philosophical perspective on his views of happiness, pleasure, pain, and the soul and body. As a result, no one so far has recognized that his views on these matters are deeply interesting and controversial, and-perhaps more jarring-no one has yet adequately explained why Lewis never became a Roman Catholic. Stewart Goetz's careful investigation of Lewis's philosophical thought reveals oft-overlooked implications and demonstrates that it was, at its root, at odds with that of Thomas Aquinas and, thereby, the Roman Catholic Church.

Автор: Chase Kreger Название: Maximize Influence: How To Be The Influencer, Not The Influenced ISBN: 1098395808 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781098395803 Издательство: Gazelle Book Services Рейтинг: Цена: 47170.00 T Наличие на складе: Поставка под заказ. Описание: Maximize Influence is a paradigm shifting book that will help you start to influence your world, instead of allowing your world to influence you. As we know, modern society, and modern media is completely infused with meaningless communication that removes any depth of importance. If we allow it, our thoughts will be corrupted with worthless ideas, and unedited opinions, all of which are fighting for our uninterrupted focus and attention. They are vying for our time, energy, belief, and response. They are trying to influence us. This oversaturation of information creates a reality that life begins to lose its meaning and we suddenly lose discernment of what is valuable. With regard for this new reality, we need a book that captivates us to escape the disorienting, constant noise of our society so that we might be able to discern what is good, what is noble, what is virtuous, and what is true. If we were to find such a book, we may be able to find ourselves in a place where we have something of merit to say and something valuable to give to another. Instead of being influenced by the menacing culture that surrounds us, we might be able to demonstrate positive influence in the face of such adversity. This is exactly why Maximize Influence was written... No matter who you are or what you do, you are trying to influence someone or something. It doesnt matter whether you see yourself as an influencer or not, your ability or inability to influence yourself and influence others will affect every area of your life. It will also, in many ways, determine how much you are able to positively impact people. We, as influencers, are not just teaching the techniques of leading and selling. We are teaching the techniques of a new and better way of life. We are teaching people how to care, how to love, and how to have better relationships. We are helping people open the doors to more friendships, more self-confidence, more courage, and more freedom. Being an influencer, when done properly, is the most noble of work. No other work yields the deep rewards that come from helping people be their best.

Описание: Practicing Caste attempts a fundamental break from the tradition of caste studies, showing the limits of the historical, sociological, political, and moral categories through which it has usually been discussed. Engaging with the resources phenomenology, structuralism, and poststructuralism offer to our thinking of the body, Jaaware helps to illuminate the ethical relations that caste entails, especially around its injunctions concerning touching. The resulting insights offer new ways of thinking about sociality that are pertinent not only to India but also to thinking the common on a planetary basis.
