Book Synopsis The Philosophical Quest for God by : Norbert Fischer
Download or read book The Philosophical Quest for God written by Norbert Fischer and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2005 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philosophy is Love of wisdom. There is continual danger that the ports of the search will be taken as the final goal. The constitutive absoluteness of its goal points to an unknown absolute. This absolute creates a place for thinking about God. Thus the God-question plays its role in every philosophy, from antiquity to the present. The way begins with man as the entry-point of the question concerning transcendence. Then this question is shown to be directed toward God. The middle section is dedicated to the arguments concerning divine existence. After the arguments for the reasonableness of belief in God, we deal with the relationship of philosophical thought about God to living faith. Finally, the ways to a search for God carried out in trust, which certain thinkers have followed while recognizing its problems, is outlined.

Book Synopsis Psychoneuroscience by : Gerhard Roth
Download or read book Psychoneuroscience written by Gerhard Roth and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-03-13 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The textbook builds a bridge between the "neurosciences" (theoretical and experimental neurobiology, neurology) and the "psychosciences" (psychology, psychiatry, psychotherapy) and aims to help provide the other disciplines with the most important and scientifically validated knowledge in an understandable form. The question of how mental experience and brain processes relate to each other has long been considered mysterious. In this book you will learn, based on the latest scientific findings, that the two areas form an indissoluble unity, even if we experience and study them differently. We present this unity in concrete terms in psychological-neurobiological theory and psychiatric-psychotherapeutic practice. We treat the principles of neurobiological excitation and information processing, the structure and function of the limbic system, the development of the personality and the interaction of genetic-epigenetic factors and prenatal and postnatal environmental influences, which may be favourable or unfavourable. On this basis, the exemplary presentation of important mental disorders such as addictive disorders, schizophrenic disorders, affective disorders and anxiety disorders takes place. Finally, following in the footsteps of the eminent psychotherapist Klaus Grawe, the concept of "neuropsychotherapy" is introduced and it is shown why psychotherapy and neurobiology belong together and can enrich each other. Our psychoneuroscientific approach paints a picture of man that is not based on opposites, but on an integration of psyche, brain, behavior and experience.
Book Synopsis Self-Understanding and Lifeworld by : Hans-Helmuth Gander
Download or read book Self-Understanding and Lifeworld written by Hans-Helmuth Gander and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2017-08-28 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are the foundations of human self-understanding and the value of responsible philosophical questioning? Focusing on Heidegger's early work on facticity, historicity, and the phenomenological hermeneutics of factical-historical life, Hans-Helmuth Gander develops an idea of understanding that reflects our connection with the world and other, and thus invites deep consideration of phenomenology, hermeneutics, and deconstruction. He draws usefully on Husserl's phenomenology and provides grounds for exchange with Descartes, Dilthey, Nietzsche, Gadamer, Ricoeur, and Foucault. On the way to developing a contemporary hermeneutical philosophy, Gander clarifies the human relation to self in and through conversation with Heidegger's early hermeneutics. Questions about reading and writing then follow as these are the very actions that structure human self-understanding and world understanding.
Download or read book Ernest Sosa written by Amrei Bahr and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-08-01 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides the reader with exclusive insights into Ernest Sosa’s latest ideas as well as main aspects of his philosophical work of the last 50 years. Ernest Sosa, one of the most distinguished contemporary philosophers, is best known for his ground-breaking work in epistemology, and has also contributed greatly to metaphysics, metaphilosophy and philosophy of language. This book, resulting from the 18th Münster Lectures in Philosophy, includes an original article by Sosa on his most recent work in epistemology, and seven critical papers that target a wide range of topics from Sosa’s oeuvre, as well as Sosa’s responses. As regards his epistemology, the issues discussed include his solution of the sceptical problem in his most recent work and the question of how to integrate a sensible account of testimony to Sosa’s virtue epistemology. The selected topics from his other fields of inquiry include his view on empirical challenges to human rationality, his defense of the scientific status of philosophy, his concept of causality as considered against the background of the current debate, his suggestion of a middle-way between existential relativism and absolutism and his externalistic internalism in the philosophy of mind and language.

Book Synopsis The Ethical Foundations of Postmodernity by : Nina Michaela von Dahlern
Download or read book The Ethical Foundations of Postmodernity written by Nina Michaela von Dahlern and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2013-07 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A (re-)turn to ethics, which began in the 1980s and 1990s and is still predominant today, has been ascribed to literary studies and theory. In this book theoretical issues within ethics are discussed based on the examples of literary analyses. The authors examined are Margaret Atwood, Jeffrey Eugenides, and Robert M. Pirsig. The main questions concern the foundation on which ethical concepts are based, and the way in which such concepts function. These topics are evidently connected to matters of human concepts and human nature in general, which are understood to be fundamentally communicative. Contrary to popular conclusions of relativity, the need for a realist foundation of ethics - implying universal validity - will be revealed. It is not only possible, but also necessary to develop such an idea of ethics within a postmodern relativist framework. A communicative foundationalist ethics will thus be designed. With regard to literature an increasing emergence of first-person narrative can be witnessed in addition to a new focus on a realist and more mimetic style after a peak of pluralist conceptions at the end of the twentieth and the beginning of the twenty-first centuries. The analysis of such narrative situations will reveal the significance of the narrative generation of individual personalities for an understanding of ethical questions. The conflict between relativist and realist points of view centers on the postmodern critique of the individual. The study of the literary generation of individuals will elucidate means of confronting this critique. The theoretical background includes the poststructuralist and communicative concepts of Judith Butler and Seyla Benhabib as well as Ernst Tugendhat's analytical approach. Nina von Dahlern studied English language and literature, philosophy, sociology, and educational sciences at the Universities of Hamburg and Heidelberg. This book is based on her Ph.D. thesis.

Book Synopsis Architecture and the Smart City by : Sergio M. Figueiredo
Download or read book Architecture and the Smart City written by Sergio M. Figueiredo and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-10-18 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasingly the world around us is becoming ‘smart.’ From smart meters to smart production, from smart surfaces to smart grids, from smart phones to smart citizens. ‘Smart’ has become the catch-all term to indicate the advent of a charged technological shift that has been propelled by the promise of safer, more convenient and more efficient forms of living. Most architects, designers, planners and politicians seem to agree that the smart transition of cities and buildings is in full swing and inevitable. However, beyond comfort, safety and efficiency, how can ‘smart design and technologies’ assist to address current and future challenges of architecture and urbanism? Architecture and the Smart City provides an architectural perspective on the emergence of the smart city and offers a wide collection of resources for developing a better understanding of how smart architecture, smart cities and smart systems in the built environment are discussed, designed and materialized. It brings together a range of international thinkers and practitioners to discuss smart systems through four thematic sections: ‘Histories and Futures’, ‘Agency and Control’, ‘Materialities and Spaces’ and ‘Networks and Nodes’. Combined, these four thematic sections provide different perspectives into some of the most pressing issues with smart systems in the built environment. The book tackles questions related to the future of architecture and urbanism, lessons learned from global case studies and challenges related to interdisciplinary research, and critically examines what the future of buildings and cities will look like.
Book Synopsis Social Roots of Self-Consciousness by : Wolfgang Mack
Download or read book Social Roots of Self-Consciousness written by Wolfgang Mack and published by Oldenbourg Verlag. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selbstbewusstsein, die Fähigkeit, über uns nachzudenken, uns unserer Gefühle oder Gedanken bewusst zu sein, ist zweifellos eine unserer markantesten und wichtigsten kognitiven Fähigkeiten. Worin besteht Selbstbewusstsein jedoch genauer, welche Teilfähigkeiten kommen zum Tragen, wenn wir uns unserer Gedanken und Gefühle bewusst sind? Und wie erwerben Kleinkinder im Zuge ihrer Entwicklung diese Fähigkeit? Beide Frageperspektiven sind eng miteinander verzahnt. Da empirische und begriffliche Fragen rund um das Phänomen des Selbstbewusstseins nur durch einen intensiv geführten Dialog zwischen Psychologie und Philosophie angemessen beantwortet werden können, versammelt dieser Band Beiträge von Vertretern beider Disziplinen. Das besondere Augenmerk der in Englisch verfassten Beiträge des Bandes gilt der Frage, welche Rolle die soziale Einbettung von Kleinkindern im Erwerb von Selbstbewusstsein und den mit ihr verknüpften kognitiven Fähigkeiten spielt. Vor allem die Annahme, dass Kleinkinder nur dank bestimmter Arten von sozialen Interaktionen die Fähigkeit entwickeln, sich von anderen Personen in der Welt zu unterscheiden und eine eigene Perspektive auf sich und die Welt einzunehmen, wird aus verschiedenen Blickwinkeln kritisch geprüft.
