Few of them saw business as a civilizing force heresy and even fewer, feeling that business was not to be tamed, relished the role of the...

The Problems of Philosophy
ISBN: 9781604500851 / Angielski / Miękka / 108 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. One of his great works, and a must-read for any student of philosophy, The Problems of Philosophy was written in 1912 as an introduction to Russell's thought.

As one of the greatest minds in Western philosophy, Russell's thoughts are...

On the basis of biographical interviews, the author takes a critical look at the popular view of youth enthusiasm for Western rock and lifestyles as resistance. Young Bulgarians scarcely challenged the socialist order. But at the same time, the Party failed to impose its notion...
