Philosophy Logic

The philosopher C. Thi Nguyen—one of the leading experts on the philosophy of games and the philosophy of data—takes us deep into the heart of games, and into the depths of bureaucracy, to see how scoring systems shape what we care about. Games are the most important art form of our era. They embody the spirit of free play. They show us the subtle beauty of action everywhere in life—in video games, sports, and boardgames—but also cooking, gardening, fly fishing, and moving. They remind us that it isn’t always about outcomes, but about how glorious it feels to be doing the thing.

Our species, it appears, is hardwired to get things wrong in myriad different ways. Why did recipients of a loan offer accept a higher rate of interest when a pretty woman's face was printed on the flyer? Why did one poll on immigration find the most despised aliens were ones from a group that did not exist? What made four of the Air Force's best pilots fly their planes, in formation, straight into the ground?

Truth before Logic explores the provocative implications of the claim that “you can only find truth with logic if you have already found truth without it.” Chesterton counters the sterile, truncated worldview of scientism with an appeal to a deep awareness in the heart and mind without which there would be neither science nor religion.

Begin to construct a life path that best suits your personality. Be honest with yourself. The key to success is enjoyment, and the key to enjoyment is accurate self-identification. Form your lifestyle around the way you work best, instead of letting your work form your lifestyle. Find soothing things that clear your mind and that allow you to progress. Often, a logical understanding of where you are, how you feel, or how you arrived at a situation will provide this clarity.

This book explores how meaning, often assumed to be a stable or innate feature of reality, is in fact a constructed phenomenon — shaped, transmitted, and manipulated through language, cultural systems, economic structures, and ideology. Drawing on thinkers such as Wittgenstein, Lacan, Orwell, and contemporary cultural critics, the text unpacks how language limits thought, how culture recycles and fossilizes symbolic forms, and how capitalism turns meaning into a consumable commodity.

Le mensonge est important. Nous nous mentons à nous-même et aux autres. Mais qu'est-ce qui nous pousse à dissimuler ou arranger la vérité à notre avantage ? Nous sommes imparfaits, pas aussi bons que nous le souhaiterions ou que nous le prétendons. L'intégration sociale nous oblige également à mentir car la vérité est source de problèmes et de conflits. Pour survivre et réussir, nous faisons semblant, avec les meilleures intentions. Mais attention! Le mensonge est bien trompeur. Quelles sont derrière les apparences, les diverses causes et formes du mensonge ?

Dangerous Jokes develops a novel, well-researched, and compelling argument that lays bare the power of demeaning jokes in ordinary conversations. Claire Horisk draws on her expertise in philosophy of language and on evidence from sociology, law, and cognitive science to explain how the element of humor—so often used as a defense—makes jokes more potent than regular speech in communicating prejudice and reinforcing social hierarchies.

フレーゲからラッセル、そしてウィトゲンシュタインへ――二十世紀初頭、言葉についての問いと答えが重なりあい、つながりあっていった。天才たちの挑戦は言語哲学の源流を形作っていく。

De Oostenrijkse filosoof Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889-1951) is zonder enige twijfel één van de belangrijkste filosofen van de twintigste eeuw. Zijn denken heeft een grote bijdrage geleverd aan de filosofie van de taal, de wiskunde en de geest alsook aan de grondslagen van de logica. Door de een werd hij bewonderd, door de ander verguisd. Dat maakt hem tot een interessant onderwerp, zowel binnen als buiten de filosofie. Op toegankelijke en humoristische wijze behandelt Jean Paul Van Bendegem de biografie van Wittgenstein en biedt hij een diepere analyse van zijn twee bekendste werken.

La característica más específica de nuestra especie, la que nos diferencia del resto de los animales, es la capacidad de aprender y usar lenguas, y para ello es necesario que cuente con un cerebro lleno de palabras. Desde que nos despertamos hasta que nos acostamos vivimos, convivimos y nos comunicamos a través de las palabras.

In this guide, you will receive greater comprehension of what fallacies are and close your blind spot to the truth of things. Later, the author goes on to instruct you on inductive and deductive reasoning, which are two techniques that help people reach logical conclusions without going astray in their paths of thinking.
