Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Einstein, Descartes, Locke, Bohr, Rorty, Berkeley, Hume, Kant -magical names When we step on an airplane, turn the key in the ignition, or switch on an air conditioner we - not just academicians - all agree that the ideas of these far-sighted sages of the Enlightenment and Modernism saved us from the Medieval life. But, as the author shows, if we fully accept their ideas a drastic change in our world-view ensues. Fred Bauer has been examining the great minds for many years, and in easily understood terms gives us a surely amazing Grand Unifying Theory. Of course, he gives ample reasons why we each have to choose for ourselves - rejecting or accepting concepts. In any case, The Wonderful Myth Called Science poses an exciting and at times an emotionally challenging exploration of science and living.

Book excerpt: “A marvelously wise and expansive book. . . . Ferry writes with warmth, wit, and energy; one could call his prose conversational, but it’s rare to have a conversation quite this wonderful.” — Boston Globe A fascinating journey through Greek mythology that explains the myths' timeless lessons and meaning Heroes, gods, and mortals. The Greek myths are the founding narratives of Western civilization: to understand them is to know the origins of philosophy, literature, art, science, law, and more. Indeed, as Luc Ferry shows in this masterful book, they remain a great store of wisdom, as relevant to our lives today as ever before. No mere legends or clichés ("Herculean task," "Pandora's box," "Achilles heel," etc.), these classic stories offer profound and manifold lessons, providing the first sustained attempt to answer fundamental human questions concerning "the good life," the burden of mortality, and how to find one's place in the world. Vividly retelling the great tales of mythology and illuminating fresh new ways of understanding them, The Wisdom of the Myths will enlighten readers of all ages.

Book excerpt: Through myth, we are connected to timeless worlds that immeasurably enhance our own experience as travelers in time. Here, Eliot explores hidden dimensions of myth in ways not previously opened. First, the time dimension, or dimensions - a most mysterious subject that myth illuminates. What is the True? Second, the art of dimension, or dimensions. A few artists create near-miracles and mythic depths may be shown to underlie the factual. What is the Beautiful? Third, the ethical dimension, or dimensions. This evermore controversial area envelopes our daily lives. It impinges upon some and inspires others. What is the Good? Here, you will find no easy answers to the great questions that humanity has asked itself from the beginning. Instead, you will see the questions themselves unfold in fresh and sometimes thrilling ways.
