Doubts and Decisions for Living Vol. I: The Foundation of Human Thoughts
ISBN: 9781500255404 / Angielski / Miękka / 330 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Soon we should agree that humans' natural qualities do not match their common (idealistic) perception of themselves, and that this mental incongruity accounts for most of our personal and interpersonal problems. In addition, the characteristics of the environments we have gradually built around ourselves make it impossible for us to converge with either our natural or idealistic view of a human. Nevertheless, it seems as if we must face the same old cliche, 'Who are we?' even more seriously now, in order to detect the origin of our personal and social problems. Our findings would then make us...

Doubts and Decisions for Living Vol. II: Volume II: The Sanctity of Human Spirit
ISBN: 9781500276508 / Angielski / Miękka / 346 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This trilogy raises many unsettling questions about life and the dilemmas of living. We humans (our spirits in fact) seem determined to resolve all those mysteries like a sacred mission embedded in our psyche. Obviously, the main question is about the creation of this incredibly complex, yet orderly universe. We like to rely on logic and mathematics to explain this amazing phenomenon, but more crucially, understand humans' imaginary importance in the midst of this horrendous creation. To do so, we apply common sense, philosophy, psychology, theology, and other disciplines to come to terms...

Doubts and Decisions for Living Vol. III: Volume III: The Structure of Human Life
ISBN: 9781500276843 / Angielski / Miękka / 326 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. We are frustrated and angry about the life we make for ourselves and the life others impose upon us, but we do not find the courage to think and behave differently. Youths, in particular, must make decisions about many life dilemmas and struggle with their torturous doubts. In addition, if they ever arrive at the intersection of wisdom paths, they must decide whether they wish to change their ways of thinking and living for transcendence to the real world. It would be by far the hardest decision that any individual faces in his/her life. That is, can s/he, and how, rid him/herself from the...

Social Transcendentalism: Socialistic Means to a Transcendent End
ISBN: 9781500382384 / Angielski / Miękka / 204 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This substantial collection of essays, dialogues, aphorisms and maxims, dating from 1983-84, is largely the reverse, in formal terms, of 'The Will to Truth', its philosophical precursor, inasmuch as its first part is essayistic and its second part entirely composed of dialogues, thereby again bringing these two modes of philosophical phenomenality - as opposed to the noumenality, as it were, of the aphorisms and maxims - into harmony or, at any rate, close juxtaposition. Here, as before, the essays constitute the main aspect of the work, and they are once again conceived within the protective...

You Always Belonged and You Always Will: a Philosophy of Belonging
ISBN: 9780615931326 / Angielski / Miękka / 306 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. You belong. You always did, and you always will. "You belong" is my benediction to you, not some claim about you. Belonging is the first gift of the living to the living. You ask: Belong to whom? Belong with what? Belong here? Belong now? On what terms? At the same time, you feel rightly that the benediction is a real gift which you needed even if you never asked for it. Working out the terms of belonging is the most human work we do together. Belonging is a basic human need and at the heart of global issues in the 21st century: refugees, immigration, and humanity's relationship with nature....

Classify and Label: The Unintended Marginalization of Social Groups
ISBN: 9780739179758 / Angielski / Twarda / 164 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Classify and Label: The Unintended Marginalization of Social Groups is a philosophical treatment of classification in the social sciences and everyday life, focusing on moral, social, and political implications. The use of labels is essential to how people navigate and understand the world. Classifications and labels also have a dark side, as they may unintentionally misrepresent groups and individuals. These misrepresentations disrupt how people think about themselves and how they treat others, sometimes leading to marginalization. Matt L. Drabek analyzes classification by considering rich...

An Essay Concerning Human Understanding: Second Treatise of Goverment
ISBN: 9781840227321 / Angielski / Miękka / 880 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Notes and Introduction by Mark G. Spencer, Brock University, Ontario
John Locke (1632-1704) was perhaps the most influential English writer of his time. His Essay concerning Human Understanding (1690) and Two Treatises of Government (1690) weighed heavily on the history of ideas in the eighteenth century, and Locke's works are often - rightly - presented as foundations of the Age of Enlightenment. Both the Essay and the Second Treatise (by far the more influential of the Two Treatises) were widely read by Locke's... Notes and Introduction by Mark G. Spencer, Brock University, Ontario

Animals in Social Work: Why and How They Matter
ISBN: 9781137372284 / Angielski / Twarda / 246 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The invisibility of animals in social work practice has been such a longstanding feature of the discipline since the early twentieth century that it is assumed to be thoroughly consistent with social work's function and raison d'etre. Indeed suggestions to the contrary are almost invariably met with a quizzical 'What do animals have to do with social work?' Animals in Social Work: Why and How They Matter represents a pioneering collection of essays dedicated to providing a critical and practical corrective to the almost routine dismissal of animals in social work practice and...

The Magic of Truth: A Reality to Remember
ISBN: 9780761864462 / Angielski / Miękka / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Questions of truth have occupied philosophers, scientists, and theologians throughout human history. What is truth? Does it exist? How do we define truth? Who determines what is true and what is not? The Magic of Truth defends the relativity of truth by examining its role in literature, the arts, and science, as well as in our own lives and traditions. The product of intensive research on the idea of truth and the secret meaning it holds, Farah Dally argues that no field of study can progress without calling into question the traditional view of truth as a clear, objective image.

Arab and Muslim Australian youth have long faced considerable social obstacles in their journey towards full integration, but as the discourse of insecurity surrounding these conflicts intensifies, so too do the difficulties they face in Australian society.

Global Philosophy: What Philosophy Ought to Be
ISBN: 9781845407674 / Angielski / Miękka / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is about education, learning, rational inquiry, philosophy, science studies, problem solving, academic inquiry, global problems, wisdom and, above all, the urgent need for an academic revolution. Despite this range and diversity of topics, there is a common underlying theme. Education ought to be devoted, much more than it is, to the exploration real-life, open problems; it ought not to be restricted to learning up solutions to already solved problems - especially if nothing is said about the problems that provoked the solutions in the first place. A central task of philosophy... This book is about education, learning, rational inquiry, philosophy, science studies, problem solving, academic inquiry, global problems, wisdom a... |

Civil Songs
ISBN: 9781500150020 / Angielski / Miękka / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Civil Songs allegorically overcomes our problematic world at a humble mountain campsite cut off from power and communications. Its fallible characters function at a high level for a couple of days as two primary families and friends muster their disparate resources to maintain themselves and improve society. This microcosm of civilization transforms into a grand stage for enlightenment as they recount Western philosophy's evolution of freedom and self-government in order to plan practical advancement. Once character learned in polity keeps their memories of history accurate as they consider...

Trusting Ourselves
ISBN: 9781500344672 / Angielski / Miękka / 164 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Every thousand years we learn a vast amount about ourselves and the world around us, yet there always remains a vast amount more. It is as if we and our world will always be a mystery to us. But we can trust ourselves and the world based on what we now know about our species. We have more gifts than we knew and our gifts are enough for our needs. Our psychology has evolved around a gratitude for life and for each other that makes life and each other and ourselves feel sacred. This sense of the sacred in the core of our evolved psychology gives us the guidance and courage we need, and we get...

Gajda creatively explores and presents a challenge to today's spiritual hunger...a hunger which persists in an increasingly disconnected world. This is a powerfully written work...a spiritual, psychological, and social manifesto channeled through a fictional second person voice which takes a hard honest look at (and to) a soft and often dishonest planet that is slipping away from itself, a voice which expects much from its listeners...yet is unafraid to expose and confront the far-reaching consequences if its words are ignored.
