Metaphysics Philosophy

Descartes is perhaps best known for his statement, "Cogito, ergo sum," the cornerstone of his metaphysics. But he did not intend the metaphysics to stand apart from his scientific work, which included important investigations into physics, mathematics, and optics. In this book, Sorell shows that Descarates was, above all, an advocate and practitioner of the new mathematical approach to physics, and that he developed his philosophies to support his discoveries in the sciences.

Sommes-nous guidés par le hasard ou par le destin ? Une histoire du déterminisme, de Newton jusqu'aux développements les plus récents de la théorie du chaos. Isaac Newton prévoit le mouvement des planètes Depuis Galilée et Newton, la physique et les mathématiques sont traversées par la question centrale du déterminisme : est-il possible de prévoir le futur à partir du présent ? Newton met au point un outil mathématique qui permet de prédire le mouvement des objets et des planètes. Ce faisant, et jusqu'au XIX siècle, il donne un élan d'optimisme conquérant à la science qui semble en état de résoudre tous les problèmes.

This book, as well as the predecessor, The Sickle, have more or less been artificially suppressed for nearly 100 years. Now is the time for these volumes to be made available to the general public and those seeking the truth. As Walter states in the preface of The Sickle, these books are not for the trifler or those on a casual search. The journey is well worth the effort and the time is right with the expanding of human consciousness worldwide to reintroduce these volumes into the collective consciousness.

"Time is that in which we live - it is horizontal. It is from A to B to C to D; it is in a line. Eternity is vertical. It is not from A to B and from B to C. It is from A to more A to still more A. It goes on upwards. The moment is rare because it happens only when meditation has reached ripening, maturity, when you have touched your innermost core." The vertical line opens a door to eternity.

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.

This volume explores the metaphysics of Alexander Gottlieb Baumgarten (1714-1762) and its decisive influence on Immanuel Kant.
