Download or read book Deep Thought written by Gary Cox and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-10-22 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gary Cox guides us through 42 of the most misunderstood, misquoted, provocative and significant quotes in the history of philosophy providing a witty and compelling commentary along the way. This entertaining and illuminating collection of quotes doesn't merely list who said what and when, it explores who each philosopher is and what he or she really meant when they said what they said. Viewing each quote as a philosophical thesis in itself, Cox probes the writings of everyone from Douglas Adams to A.J. Ayer and Thomas Aquinas to Karl Marx. This is a philosophical journey through history, culture and writing to bring us to a deeper understanding of why we think the way we do. As Douglas Adams points out, if there is no final answer to the question, 'What is the meaning of life?', '42' is as good or bad an answer as any other. Here Cox shows that 42 quotes might be even better!

Download or read book Philosophy written by Ayn Rand and published by Penguin. This book was released on 1984-11-01 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays was the last work planned by Ayn Rand before her death in 1982. In it, she summarizes her view of philosophy and deals with a broad spectrum of topics. According to Ayn Rand, the choice we make is not whether to have a philosophy, but which one to have: rational, conscious, and therefore practical; or contradictory, unidentified, and ultimately lethal. Written with all the clarity and eloquence that have placed Ayn Rand’s Objectivist philosophy in the mainstream of American thought, these essays range over such basic issues as education, morality, censorship, and inflation to prove that philosophy is the fundamental force in all our lives.

Book excerpt: Words of Wisdom brings together 360 of Philosophy's most famous quotations, explaining their meaning and telling the stories behind them.

With the author's usual humour and clarity of style, the whole 2,500 year history of philosophy is laid bare. Each quote is set in the context of its cultural background, author biography and general outlook; trends are highlighted, links established, and influences traced, all in a way that is entertaining, thought-provoking, and even fun. Words of Wisdom is the perfect book for those who always wanted to ask what philosophy was about, but were afraid they might not understand the answer.

Download or read book Every Time I Find the Meaning of Life, They Change It written by Daniel Klein and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-05-05 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Every time I find the meaning of life, they change it.” The words of Reinhold Niebuhr provide the title and set the tone for what is a wryly humorous look at some of the great philosophical pronouncements on the most important question we can face. Daniel Klein’s philosophical journey began fifty years ago with just this conundrum; he began an undergraduate degree in philosophy at Harvard University to glean some clue as to what the answer could be. Now in his seventies, Klein looks back at the wise words of the great philosophers and considers how his own life has measured up. Told with the same brilliantly dry sense of humour that made Travels with Epicurus a Sunday Times bestseller, Every Time I Find the Meaning of Life, They Change It is a pithy, dry, and eminently readable commentary on one of the most profound subjects there is.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE MANUAL FOR LIVING is the first and best primer for living the best possible life -- as helpful in the twenty-first century as it was in the first. Epictetus's teachings rank among the greatest wisdom texts of human civilization. Epictetus taught that philosophy is a way of life and not just a theoretical discipline. To Epictetus, all external events are beyond our control; we should accept calmly and dispassionately whatever happens. However, individuals are responsible for their own actions, which they can examine and control through rigorous self-discipline. By putting into practice the ninety-three wise instructions that make up The Art of Living, readers learn to successfully meet the challenges of everyday life.

Book excerpt: How often have you heard someone say, "My father always said...or "My coach used to say...? Chances are, the best teachers you've had are the ones you can still quote. The ability to distill a lot of wisdom into a few words is the hallmark of great teaching. A well-placed proverb, quote, or pithy saying can focus and clarify one's thinking marvelously. Venerable Master Hsing Yun, like all great teachers, has also been a great student. Over the past few years, he has written about a collection of one hundred quotes, things he heard from his teachers, his fellow students, ancient Chan masters, modern lay devotees--in short, from any and every possible source of wisdom. By sharing these sayings with us, describing the context in which he heard them, and reflecting on their meaning and importance for good living, he opens a window into his life, as well as ours.
