ISBN: 9781570626418 / Angielski / Miękka / 330 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Writing in the language of the new sciences, Herbert Guenther traces the evolution of Buddhist views on cognition and points to their relevance in the contemporary world.

"Whether we are to live in a future state . . . is the most important question which can possibly be asked. . . . Yet strange perplexities have been raised about the meaning of that identity or sameness of person, which is implied in the notion of our being now and hereafter. . . ."
These words, written by the Anglican Bishop Joseph Butler, concisely summarize the crux of the problem which renowned philosopher Antony Flew tackles in this profoundly thoughtful book. Despite the perennial hope of life beyond the grave, Flew shows that there are insuperable difficulties in elucidating...

ISBN: 9781573928533 / Angielski / Twarda / 508 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This elucidation and defense of naturalism argues that an uncompromising secular orientation is the best framework to utilize in trying to make sense of life and of society. Part one interprets religion in purely naturalistic terms and seeks to show that religious symbols arise solely from facts about human nature and society, specifically our needs, fears, and aspirations. Part Two examines arguments for and against naturalism, including the defenses of Sidney Hook, Ernest Nagel, Antony Flew, and critical reactions to their views. Special attention is given to the forceful critique of...

"This book has grown out of an attempt to harmonize two different tendencies, one in psychology, the other in physics, with both of which I find myself in sympathy, although at first sight they might seem inconsistent," Bertrand Russell wrote at the beginning of "The Analysis of Mind," a collection of lectures delivered in London and Peking. He then unfolds for his readers his ideas on consciousness, instinct and habit, desire and feeling, introspection, perception, sensations and images, memory, words and meaning, belief, and characteristics of mental phenomenon.

Self and Spirit
ISBN: 9781597310567 / Angielski / Miękka / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. BLURB for Self and Spirit
What is the basis and purpose of esoteric religion, and what is the self? Self and Spirit answers these questions in depth and in a way true to the spirit of traditional wisdom. This book illuminates from a new angle the Non-Dualistic conceptions that have become influential through the work of many modern traditionalists, including René Guénon and Frithjof Schuon, whose influence is evident in Dr. Boltons treatment of religion and tradition. Here, Gnostic ideas usually taken to support pantheistic religion are shown to be able to provide a foundation for belief... BLURB for Self and Spirit
