Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Philosophical Currents of the Present Day, Vol. 1 Eight years ago, when I first read "Die Philosophischen Strömungen der Gegemvart," I was struck by the wonderful mass of information contained in it, most of which was altogether new to me. This mass of information it handles in such a lucid manner that the reader passes by imperceptible stages from one mode of thinking to another, till on looking back, he is surprised to find how many different systems of thought he has been able to master. This is due to the circumstance that the different modes of thinking are not presented in their isolation but are woven in the texture of the whole work. The author, moreover, has always a distinct position of his own from which he surveys all philosophical movements. This work has the great merit of introducing to the public many comparatively unfamiliar systems of thought. The systems of Houston Stewart-Chamberlain and Count Keyserling occur chiefly to one's mind in this connexion. When one reflects how important their share in the philosophical movements of the present day is, one cannot but be grateful to the author for having given so much prominence in his book to their thoughts. "Die Philosophischen Strömungen der Gegenwart" is probably the most comprehensive survey that exists of the philosophical position of the present day. It is much more thorough than either Külpe or Aliotta's work. When, therefore, both Külpe's "Philosophie der Gegenwart in Deutschland" and Aliotta's "La Reazione Idealistica Contro la Scienza" have been translated into English, no apology is needed for bringing out an English edition of the much more important work of Professor Ludwig Stein.

This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Philosophical Currents of the Present Day, Vol. 2 Hartmann. From this point the best view can be Obtained of his philosophy, especially, his nee-realism. The mechanical theory of life which sought to refer absolutely all phenomena of life to physico-chemical processes and thus to resolve all biology finally into mechanics, had so ruled unchecked a whole generation that all vitalism, as we have already seen, was placed under a ban. At the Gottingen Conference of scientists of the year 18545 life-force stood in the centre of the great debate which divided all science into two camps. The religious disputes of the Middle Ages and the religious congresses of to-day are not more heated or passionate than the disputes among scien tists in those days. No doubt shortly before this (1852) Rudolf Wagner's Physiologische Briefe had appeared. Jakob Moleschott's Kreislanf des Lebens and Karl Vogt's Bilder ans dem Tierleben expressed the scientific tendency of the day. The two fiery works on the dispute regarding materialism, Karl Vogt's Kohleiglaabe and ii issenschaft and Biichner's Kraft and Stof appeared first afte1 the scientific conference which'ought to be regarded as of great importance for the question of life-force.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Philosophers suffer from a peculiar occupational hazard; people are always coming up and asking them just what it is that they do and how they do it. This is not the sort of question that biologists or economists or musicians get asked; people know, pretty well, what they do, and they may or may not be interested in the details. But a philosopher is different - it is very hard to imagine just what he does with his time"--

This book was released on 2021-06-08 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary deep-reaching changes – whether in financial or real economy, in Europe’s political conditions, in the context of scientific theories, in the field of global (environmental) security, or gender relations – are also a challenge to philosophy. The volume comprises cutting-edge scholarly articles from renowned philosophers with various geographical backgrounds and from different philosophical strands. Next to investigating general questions as to the relation of philosophy and critique (What is philosophical critique and which philosophical concepts of critique are of importance today? Where do we need it most? Where are its limits?), the articles focus on issues like theories of democracy and modes of election; the roles of emotions in the political realm; challenges from a widespread discontent in society to politics and science; changes to social identities and different theoretical approaches to social identity formation. The book is indispensable for all who are interested in what contemporary philosophy has to say on crucial issues of our time.
