Showing titles in Metaphysics

This volume explores the metaphysics of Alexander Gottlieb Baumgarten (1714-1762) and its decisive influence on Immanuel Kant. For over a century, scholars have recognized the significance of Baumgarten's Metaphysics, both because of its impact on Kant's intellectual development and because of the way it fundamentally informed the work of generations of German philosophers, including Moses Mendelssohn, Thomas Abbt, Johann Gottfried Herder, Solomon Maimon, Johann August Eberhard, and arguably even Georg Friedrich Hegel.

By the time he was 30, Syd Kessler was a millionaire many times over, the epitome of the poor kid making good. But inside him, a hollowness was taking hold, and later, in middle age, he fell seriously ill. In the dark days of a long recovery, Kessler explored the Kabbalah and the discoveries of quantum physics, developing a system of moral principles from the truths of how the universe began and operates. His set of principles - from Big Bang to Moral Cause and Effect to Selfless Selfishness to Closure and Energy - are revolutionary.

Las Meditaciones metafísicas, fue publicada por primera vez en 1641, en latín y posteriormente en francés en 1647. En ella se elabora el sistema filosófico que había introducido en 1637, en la 4ª parte del Discurso del método. El principal objetivo es la demostración de Dios mediante razonamientos lógicos y definir las bases del conocimiento del momento con el fin de disponerlo sobre unas bases más sólidas de las que había hasta entonces. Descartes también estudia la naturaleza dual del hombre compuesta por el pensamiento y el cuerpo.

Aristotle’s Metaphysics examines what can be asserted about any being insofar as it is and not because of any special qualities that it may possess. Three questions lie at the core of the book: What is existence, and what sorts of things exist in the world? How can things continue to exist, and yet undergo the change we see about us in the natural world? And how can this world be understood? The book also deals with different kinds of causation, form and matter, the existence of mathematical objects, and God as a prime-mover.

Explore the profound power of zero, not as an ethereal void, but as the fundamental marker of absence. This book delves into how zero, through the rational process of diminishing quantities, provides the essential boundary between something and nothing. Discover its crucial role in defining value, enabling concepts like debt, equilibrium, and the nuanced understanding of 'almost gone.' Uncover why zero is not a mystical entity, but a logical necessity for comprehending the complete spectrum of quantitative relationships.

What if the most powerful force shaping the modern world was… nothing? We live in an age of deep uncertainty. Institutions are questioned, truths are fractured, and the search for meaning often feels more like a personal burden than a cultural inheritance. Yet few realise just how much of our present-day worldview is quietly shaped by a radical idea: nihilism—the belief that there is no inherent meaning, purpose, or absolute truth.

Robert Burney is an author, counselor, and spiritual teacher who has been referred to as "a metaphysical Stephen Hawking". His first book, Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls, has been called "one of the truly transformational works of our time". In this audiobook about the Law of Attraction, he shares his opinion that spiritual teachers, new age gurus, and New Thought churches are teaching the law of attraction in ways that do a disservice to - and can actually hurt - the people they are teaching.

In this book the method by which the soul and the personality vehicles interact and function together is clearly presented. The author also reveals the relationship between what the occultist accepts in the constitution of man as the vital body, the etheric network with its energy vortices, or centres, and the physiological effects on the body through glandular secretions directly into the bloodstream. This is the endocrine system of glands, which correspond in the physical body to the energy centres in the etheric body.

No is the final, and perhaps most perplexing, chapter in the No-Point trilogy. If No-Point Perspective was the encyclopedia of nothingness for dummies and No-Point the professional's handbook, then No is the blank page at the end, the echo of a conversation that has finally run its course. Justin Allen and Andreas Müller, having exhausted all avenues of inquiry, meet face-to-face in Andreas' quaint village. The words dwindle, the silences grow longer, and the "no-point" reveals itself not as a concept to be grasped, but as what's apparently happening—life.

In this mercilessly funny takedown, Jean-Jacques Rousseau—history's most insufferable philosopher—gets the roasting he so richly deserves. Noble Savage, Deadbeat Dad exposes the spectacular hypocrisy of a man who abandoned five children at orphanages while writing the definitive guide to education, preached natural virtue while exposing himself to strangers, and railed against wealth while living off rich patrons.

Crafted by satirical philosopher and literary trickster George Kevers, The Uncertainty Principle is a thought experiment dressed in academic robes and running shoes.
