237,95 - 247,95 kr. Seeing and Thinking is a philosophical book written by William Kingdon Clifford, a British mathematician and philosopher. The book explores the relationship between perception and cognition, and how they shape our understanding of the world around us. Clifford argues that our senses provide us with a limited view of reality, and that our minds play an active role in interpreting and making sense of what we see. He also discusses the role of language, culture, and social norms in shaping our perceptions and thoughts. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for both students and general readers interested in philosophy, psychology, and cognitive science. Overall, Seeing and Thinking offers a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the complex relationship between perception and cognition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.

- Part I, Kinematic
279,95 kr. ""Elements of Dynamic, An Introduction to the Study of Motion and Rest in Solid and Fluid Bodies: Part I, Kinematic"" by William Kingdon Clifford is a comprehensive guide to the study of motion and rest in both solid and fluid bodies. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on kinematics, which is the study of motion without considering the forces that cause it.The book covers a wide range of topics related to kinematics, including displacement, velocity, acceleration, and the equations of motion. It also delves into more complex concepts such as relative motion, circular motion, and projectile motion.Throughout the book, Clifford provides clear explanations and examples to help readers understand the material. He also includes numerous diagrams and illustrations to further aid in comprehension.Overall, ""Elements of Dynamic, An Introduction to the Study of Motion and Rest in Solid and Fluid Bodies: Part I, Kinematic"" is an essential resource for anyone interested in the study of motion and rest in both solid and fluid bodies. It is an excellent introduction to the subject and provides a solid foundation for further study.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.

253,95 kr. Lectures and Essays, VOLUME 1: IT is an open secret to the few who know it, but a mystery and a stumbling-block to the many, that Science and Poetry are own sisters; insomuch that in those branches of scientific inquiry which are most abstract, most formal, and most remote from the grasp of the ordinary sensible imagination, a higher power of imagination akin to the creative insight of the poet is most needed and most fruitful of lasting work. This living and constructive energy projects itself out into the world at the same time that it assimilates the surrounding world to itself. When it is joined with quick perception and delicate sympathies, it can work the miracle of piercing the barrier that separates one mind from another, and becomes a personal charm. It can be known only in its operation, and is by its very nature incommunicable and indescribable. Yet this faculty, when a man is gifted with it, seems to gather up the best of his life, so that the man always transcends every work shapen and sent forth by him; his presence is full of it, and it lightens the air his friends breathe; it commands not verbal assent to propositions or intellectual acquiescence in arguments, but the conviction of being in the sphere of a vital force for which nature must make room. Therefore when, being happy in that we knew and saw these things, and have received the imperishable gifts, we must unhappily speak of the friend who gave them as having passed from us, it becomes nothing less than a duty to attempt the impossible task, to describe that which admits of no description, and communicate that for which words are but blundering messengers. And perhaps it may not be in vain; for a voice which is in itself weak may strengthen the kindred notes that vibrate in other memories touched by the same power, and those we know to be very many. For this power, when it works for fellowship and not ambition, wins for its wearer the love of all sorts and conditions of men, and this was marked in Clifford by all who had to do with him even a little. More than this, our words may peradventure strike further, though by no force or skill of their own, and stir some new accord in imaginations favorably attuned for the impulse. The discourses and writings collected in this book will indeed testify to the intellectual grasp and acuteness that went to the making of them. Clifford's earnestness and simplicity, 'too, are fairly enough presented to the reader, and the clearness of his expression is such that any comment by way of mere explanation would be impertinent. But of the winning felicity of his manner, the varied and flexible play of his thought, the almost boundless range of his human interests and sympathies, his writing tells-at least, so it seems to those who really knew him-nothing or very little. To say a word or two in remembrance of one's friend is but natural; and in these days excuse is hardly needed for saying it in public. But here this is the least part of the matter in hand. Personal desires and aims are merged in the higher responsibility of telling the world that it has lost a man of genius; a responsibility which must be accepted even with the knowledge that it cannot be adequately discharged.

123,95 - 173,95 kr. The classic discussion between William Kingdon Clifford (The Ethics of Belief) and William James (The Will to Believe), with added explanatory footnotes, and further commentary by A.J. Burger (An Examination of "The Will to Believe"). Never before have these essays appeared together in their complete and unabridged forms, with added footnotes, in an inexpensive edition. The recent essay by A.J. Burger, published for the first time, provides a thorough and unflinching examination of James' The Will to Believe. "People have long been interested in the circumstances under which it is appropriate to believe. Often, the source of this interest is the desire to believe something for which one has insufficient evidence. Extensive excerpts ... are often reprinted in anthologies. This is sufficient proof of the enduring interest in this subject, and of the importance of these particular essays." -from the Preface
