ISBN: 9780803244306 / Angielski / Twarda / 137 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. If not by nature, then by habit, people tend to match one thing with another-man and woman, laughter and tears, sickness and health, fire and water, master and servant-thereby accentuating similarities and contrasts and opening a field of relations. InThe Mirror of Ideas, Michel Tournier examines these pairs and a host of others to demonstrate how pairing one object or idea with another generates the work of imagination, philosophy, and creative thinking of all kinds.

How To Do Things With Logic
ISBN: 9780805800760 / Angielski / Miękka / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the past 15 years a host of critical thinking books have appeared that teach students to find flaws in the arguments of others by learning to detect a number of informal fallacies. This book is not in that tradition. The authors of this book believe that while students learn to become vicious critics, they still continue to make the very mistakes they criticize in others. Thus, this book has adopted the approach of teaching the construction of good arguments first and then introducing criticism as a secondary skill. Moreover, the emphasis of the book is not on learning to name fallacies,...

ISBN: 9780805823882 / Angielski / Twarda / 496 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Over the past decade, the question of whether there is a mental logic has become subject to considerable debate.

This controversy has invaded various journals and has created issues between mental logic and the biases-and-heuristics approach to reasoning, and the content-dependent theorists. However, despite its pertinence to current issues in cognition, few cognitive scientists really know what the mental-logic theory is, and misapprehensions are prevalent. This...

Hegel's Logic: Between Dialectic and History
ISBN: 9780810114265 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This text presents an analysis of Hegel's most challenging work, Science of Logic. Although earlier commentators on the Logic have considered standard analytical philosophy - and with it modern logic - in opposition to Hegel, Clark Butler views it as a legitimate approach in terms of which Hegel needs to be understood. This interpretation allows him to address the rigour of Hegel's thought on several levels as at once an exercise in purely conceptual redefinition and a full-bodied work in metaphysical ontology and even theology. The result is an account of the Logic intelligible to both...
