Social Consciousness

Suffering, in one form or another, is present in all of our lives. But why do we suffer? On one reading, this is a question about the causes of physical and emotional suffering. On another, it is a question about whether suffering has a point or purpose or value. In this groundbreaking book, Michael Brady argues that suffering is vital for the development of virtue, and hence for us to live happy or flourishing lives.

Le questioni principali di questo volume - pubblicato nel 1894, quando Steiner ottenne il dottorato di filosofia a Rostock - riguardano il ruolo della filosofia, considerata quale arte, nei riguardi della libertà umana; che cosa sia quest'ultima.

La "filosofia della libertà" è la base filosofica degli scritti posteriori di Steiner . In questo volume si è tentato di mostrare che l'esperienza del pensare, giustamente compresa, è già un'esperienza spirituale.

The nature of consciousness and the relationship between the mind and brain have become the most hotly debated topics in philosophy. This book explains and argues for a new approach called enactivism. Enactivism maintains that consciousness and all subjective thoughts and feelings arise from an organism's attempts to use its environment in the service of purposeful action. The authors admit that their perspective presents many problems: How does one distinguish real action from reaction? Is it scientifically acceptable to say that the whole organism can use its parts, instead of being a mere summation of their separate mechanical reactions? What about the danger that this analysis will imply that physical systems fail to be "causally closed"?

La Robustesse est la capacité de faire face aux épreuves, d'agir avec courage et d'accomplir le nécessaire à temps. Nous vivons dans un monde de manque et d'excès, et le seul miracle, la vie, n'existe que gr'ce à l'équilibre. Cet équilibre est fragile : la toute-puissance de l'homme menace de le détruire. Les produits industriels transformés dérobent les nutriments et le goût naturel de notre alimentation.

Che cos'è la coscienza? È qualcosa di fisico? E che cos'è la realtà? È qualcosa di esterno, oggettivo, che possiamo davvero conoscere? E come? Dall'antichità a oggi, queste domande perturbanti non hanno smesso di far discutere filosofi e scienziati. Ma le loro risposte si sono sempre basate sul dualismo irriducibile tra mente e realtà, apparenza e mondo fisico, che ha scavato un fossato tra l'uomo e gli oggetti che lo circondano. Così la coscienza umana è diventata un mistero inafferrabile, un fenomeno interiore e soggettivo, e la natura un dato esteriore ed estraneo.

Warum positives Denken uns nicht weiterbringt, Schimpfen aber schon. Dieses Hörbuch ist ein Aufruf zum Widerstand gegen die Ideologie unserer Zeit: den Zwang des Glücks. Ratgeber und Duschbäder fordern uns auf, positiv zu sein. Wir sollen Scheitern als Chance begreifen und ständig unser Selbst entfalten. Doch der Terror des Positiven nervt, belastet uns alle und schwächt den Zusammenhalt: Wir betrachten Glück als Prestige und verstehen politische Probleme als persönliches Versagen. Das zeigt nicht nur die psychologische Forschung, sondern auch die Geschichte.

Este conjunto de artículos (cien publicados y otros cien inéditos) reflejan el espíritu crítico y a contracorriente de Fernando Savater.

Half a century ago, the world changed forever when a Swiss chemist inadvertently ingested the experimental compound lysergic acid diethylamide.

The Psychedelic Reader now offers a relevant guidebook to the foundations of a bold new era in mental health studies.

What is the connection between physics and consciousness? In this groundbreaking new audiobook, Samuel Avery presents the quantum screen, a paradigm-shifting model of perceptual consciousness and of the world. This model looks to the enigmas of modern physics to demonstrate the primacy of consciousness - the essential oneness of spirit and matter.

While science has become politicized in recent years and people are saying, "I don't know what's true anymore," Gloria Prema's 2009 book unifying science and spirituality is more relevant than ever.
