Die Grenzen des Wissens
ISBN: 9783777630854 / Twarda / 2023 / 445 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. In den vergangenen hundert Jahren hat die Menschheit spektakuläre Fortschritte bei der Wissenserlangung über das Universum, die Vergangenheit und sich selbst gemacht. Die Geschichte der großen vorklassischen Zivilisationen und die Geschichte der menschlichen Evolution wurden erkundet und detailliert kartiert. Diese Fortschritte waren enorm, aufregend und folgenreich. Doch eine bemerkenswerte Tatsache begleitet diese Entwicklungen: Während man früher glaubte, dass jeder Erkenntnisfortschritt unsere Unwissenheit schmälert, haben uns die jüngsten Riesenschritte gezeigt, wie wenig wir...

The History of Philosophy
ISBN: 9780241304549 / Angielski / Miękka / 2020 / 690 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. The story of philosophy is an epic tale: an exploration of the ideas, views and teachings of some of the most creative minds known to humanity. But there has been no comprehensive and entertaining, single-volume history of this great intellectual journey since 1945.
With his characteristic clarity and elegance A. C. Grayling takes the reader from the world-views and moralities before the age of the Buddha, Confucius and Socrates, through Christianitys dominance of the European mind to the Renaissance and Enlightenment, and on to Mill, Nietzsche, Sartre, and philosophy today. And, since the... The story of philosophy is an epic tale: an exploration of the ideas, views and teachings of some of the most creative minds known to humanity. But th...

Among the Dead Cities: Is the Targeting of Civilians in War Ever Justified?
ISBN: 9781472526038 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 376 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Is it ever right to target civilians in a time of war? Or do the ends sometimes justify the means? The twentieth century - the age of 'total war' - marked the first time that civilian populations came to be seen as legitimate military targets. At this policy's most terrible extreme came the dropping of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki but it is an issue that remains relevant today with the needs of the 'War on Terror' used to justify the use of drone strikes. In "Amongst the Dead Cities," A.C. Grayling explores these moral issues in all their complexity with a detailed examination... Is it ever right to target civilians in a time of war?

Scepticism and the Possibility of Knowledge
ISBN: 9781441154361 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Scepticism as a philosophical term is as old as the Greeks but has more recently been advanced by Montaigne, Descartes and Hume. To these, what little we know that seems certain is based on observation and habit as opposed to any logical or scientific necessity. Thus, sceptical views relate directly to epistemology--the theory of knowledge and what we can know--and, in the modern turbulent world, it is grayling's contention that these are issues that all contemporary people need to focus on. In seeking understanding of the human condition we need more than just a set of beliefs about it:...

Grayling brings satisfying order to daunting subjects' Steven Pinker In very recent times humanity has learnt a vast amount about the universe, the past, and itself. But through our remarkable successes in acquiring knowledge we have learned how much we have yet to learn: the science we have, for example, addresses just 5 per cent of the universe; pre-history is still being revealed, with thousands of historical sites yet to be explored; and the new neurosciences of mind and brain are just beginning. What do we know, and how do we know it? What do we now know that we...

There has been a bad-tempered quarrel between defenders and critics of religion in recent years. Both sides have expressed themselves acerbically because there is a very great deal at stake in the debate. This book thoroughly and calmly examines all the arguments and associated considerations offered in support of religious belief, and does so in full consciousness of the reasons people have for subscribing to religion, and the needs they seek to satisfy by doing so. And because it takes account of all the issues, its solutions carry great weight. The God Argument is the definitive...
