ISBN: 9780020300656 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Mortimer Adler has always been ahead of his time.

This is a wonderfully enlightening work on the...

How to Prove There Is a God: Mortimer J. Adler's Writings and Thoughts about God
ISBN: 9780812696899 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. One of the great tasks of Mortimer Adler's illustrious life was his search for a watertight proof of the existence of God. Adler believed that his search had been successful.
Adler spent years studying the classic proofs of God's existence, especially Aquinas's Five Ways, and found shortcomings in all of them, as conventionally understood. But he thought that some of them contained ideas which, if properly developed, could be improved, and he continued to search for a satisfying and logically unassailable proof. Toward the end of the 1970s, he believed he had arrived at such a proof, which...

How to Think about God: A Guide for the 20th-Century Pagan
ISBN: 9780020160229 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Dr. Adler, in his discussion, extends and modernizes the argument for the existence of God developed by Aristotle and Aquinas. Without relying on faith, mysticism, or science (none of which, according to Dr. Adler, can prove or disprove the existence of God), he uses a rationalist argument to lead the reader to a point where he or she can see that the existence of God is not necessarily dependent upon a suspension of disbelief. Dr. Adler provides a nondogmatic exposition of the principles behind the belief that God, or some other supernatural cause, has to exist in some form. Through concise...

Truth in Religion
ISBN: 9780020641407 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Only if, with regard to the diversity of religions, there are questions about truth and falsehood do we have a problem about the pluralism of religions and the unity of truth.
That problem is not concerned with preserving religious liberty, freedom of worship, and the toleration, in a particular society or in the world, of a diversity of religious institutions, communities, practices, and beliefs. It is concerned only with the question of where, in that diversity, the truth lies if there is any truth in religion at all.

How to Think about War and Peace
ISBN: 9780823216437 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 307 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Mortimer Adler writes in his introduction: In thinking about war and peace, as in thinking about other basic practical problems, the man who brings general ideas and principles to bear upon particular problems and formulations has a unique advantage. He can make effective contact with the concrete and the immediate without losing a dispassionate vision of the universal and the timeless. He can exercise that critical detachment necessary for a thoughtful, rather than an emotional, judgement upon the conflicting policies which solicit his adherance.How to think About War and Peace discusses...

Time of Our Lives: The Ethics of Common Sense

Is it possible to have a good life in our time? And finally, does a good life consist of having a good time? Are happiness and a good lifeinterchangeable? These are the questions that Mortimer Adler addresses himself to. The heart of the book lies in its conception of the good life for man, which provides the standard for measuring a century, a society, or a culture: for upon that turns the meaning of each man's primary moral right - his right to the pursuit of happiness. The moral philosophy that Dr. Adler expounds in...

Common Sense of Politics
ISBN: 9780823216673 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 265 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The first edition of The Common Sense of Politics described itself as a just in time tonic for those of us who have given up on common sense as well as on politics and can no longer see the connection between the two.One has only to scan the pages of this 1996 edition to recognize that this book is just as appropriate and important, if not more. With the development of a European Community, the upcoming American presidential election, and in light of the recent celebration of the U.N.'s 50th anniversary, it is crucial that we, as citizens of the world, approach politics with common sense and...

Platonism and Positivism in Psychology
ISBN: 9781560007722 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 273 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Psychology is a field of many paradoxes. Since its earliest beginnings as a natural science, psychologists have been in search of their proper subject matter. Today they are in less agreement than ever. In this classic text, originally published as What Man Has Made of Man, Mortimer J. Adler goes to the root of the problem. He shows that psychology is simultaneously a particular social science and a branch of philosophical knowledge. These two parts must be distinguished from, yet related to, each other if sound philosophical analysis is to replace bad... Psychology is a field of many paradoxes.
