A Political Philosophy: Arguments for Conservatism
ISBN: 9781472965226 / Angielski / Miękka / 2019 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. Over the past twenty years, Roger Scruton has been developing a conservative view of human beings, society and culture.

Much of our present self doubt, argues Scruton, is brought about by the Darwinian theory of evolution. Darwin encourages us to see human emotion as a reproductive strategy. This is a perspective which Scruton attacks vehemently especially in its modern proponents- Desmond Morris and Richard...

Beauty: A Very Short Introduction
ISBN: 9780199229758 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Beauty can be consoling, disturbing, sacred, profane; it can be exhilarating, appealing, inspiring, chilling. It can affect us in an unlimited variety of ways.

Spinoza: A Very Short Introduction
ISBN: 9780192803160 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. Father of the Enlightenment and the last guardian of the medieval world, Spinoza made a brilliant attempt to reconcile the conflicting moral and intellectual demands of his epoch and to present a vision of man as simultaneously bound by necessity and eternally free.

Here, Roger Scruton presents a clear and...
