251,95 kr. Bertrand Arthur William Russell, 3rd Earl Russell OM FRS (18 May 1872 - 2 February 1970) was a British polymath, philosopher, logician, mathematician, historian, writer, social critic, political activist, and Nobel laureate. Throughout his life, Russell considered himself a liberal, a socialist and a pacifist, although he sometimes suggested that his sceptical nature had led him to feel that he had "never been any of these things, in any profound sense". Russell was born in Monmouthshire into one of the most prominent aristocratic families in the United Kingdom. In the early 20th century, Russell led the British "revolt against idealism". He is considered one of the founders of analytic philosophy along with his predecessor Gottlob Frege, colleague G. E. Moore and protégé Ludwig Wittgenstein.

193,95 kr. The author attempts to create a brief and accessible guide to the problems of philosophy. He introduces philosophy as a repeating series of (failed) attempts to answer the same questions: Can we prove that there is an external world? Can we prove cause and effect? Can we validate any of our generalizations? Can we objectively justify morality? He asserts that philosophy cannot answer any of these questions and that any value of philosophy must lie elsewhere than in offering proofs to these questions.Focusing on problems he believes will provoke positive and constructive discussion, Russell concentrates on knowledge rather than metaphysics: If it is uncertain that external objects exist, how can we then know of them but by probability? There is no reason to doubt the existence of external objects simply because of sensory data.The book also looks at the question of mathematical truths and philosophy within mathematics, particularly the question of how pure mathematics is possible.Russell guides the reader through his famous 1910 distinction between knowledge by acquaintance and knowledge by description and introduces important theories of Plato, Aristotle, René Descartes, David Hume, John Locke, Immanuel Kant, Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, and others to lay the foundation for philosophical inquiry by general readers and scholars alike.

218,95 kr. Ainsi que la plupart des gens de ma génération, j¿ai été élevé selon le principe que l¿oisiveté est mère de tous vices. Comme j¿étais un enfant pétri de vertu, je croyais tout ce qüon me disait, et je me suis doté d¿une conscience qui m¿a contraint à peiner au travail toute ma vie. Cependant, si mes actions ont toujours été soumises à ma conscience, mes idées, en revanche, ont subi une révolution. En effet, j¿en suis venu à penser que l¿on travaille beaucoup trop de par le monde, que de voir dans le travail une vertu cause un tort immense, et qüil importe à présent de faire valoir dans les pays industrialisés un point de vue qui diffère radicalement des préceptes traditionnels. Tout le monde connaît l¿histoire du voyageur qui, à Naples, vit douze mendiants étendus au soleil (c¿était avant Mussolini), et proposa une lire à celui qui se montrerait le plus paresseux. Onze d¿entre eux bondirent pour venir la lui réclamer : il la donna donc au douzième. Ce voyageur était sur la bonne piste. Toutefois, dans les contrées qui ne bénéficient pas du soleil méditerranéen, l¿oisiveté est chose plus difficile, et il faudra faire beaucoup de propagande auprès du public pour l¿encourager à la cultiver. J¿espère qüaprès avoir lu les pages qui suivent, les dirigeants du Y.M.C.A. 1 lanceront une campagne afin d¿inciter les jeunes gens honnêtes à ne rien faire, auquel cas je n¿aurai pas vécu en vain.

178,95 kr. Philosopher, mathematician and social critic, Bertrand Russell was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1950. In The Analysis of Mind, one of his most in uential and exciting books, Russell presents an intriguing reconciliation of the materialism of psychology with the antimaterialism of physics. This book established a new conception of the mind and provided one of the most original and interesting externalist accounts of knowledge. Drawing upon the writings of psychologists such as William James and John Watson, Russell offers a comprehensive treatment of such considerations as belief, desire, habit, memory, meaning, and causal law. His reasoning formed the foundation for many subsequent theories of mind, as well as a framework for his own later philosophical writings. It remains one of the most important works on the philosophy of the mind."A most brilliant essay in psychology."-New Statesman "A delightful experience."-Joseph ConradEach RADLEY CLASSIC is a meticulously restored, luxurious and faithful reproduction of a classic book; produced with elegant text layout, clarity of presentation, and stylistic features that make reading a true pleasure.
