Book Synopsis The Mystery of Consciousness by : John R. Searle
Download or read book The Mystery of Consciousness written by John R. Searle and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 1990-01-01 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has long been one of the most fundamental problems of philosophy, and it is now, John Searle writes, "the most important problem in the biological sciences": What is consciousness? Is my inner awareness of myself something separate from my body? In what began as a series of essays in The New York Review of Books, John Searle evaluates the positions on consciousness of such well-known scientists and philosophers as Francis Crick, Gerald Edelman, Roger Penrose, Daniel Dennett, David Chalmers, and Israel Rosenfield. He challenges claims that the mind works like a computer, and that brain functions can be reproduced by computer programs. With a sharp eye for confusion and contradiction, he points out which avenues of current research are most likely to come up with a biological examination of how conscious states are caused by the brain. Only when we understand how the brain works will we solve the mystery of consciousness, and only then will we begin to understand issues ranging from artificial intelligence to our very nature as human beings.
Book Synopsis Science, Consciousness and Ultimate Reality by : David Lorimer
Download or read book Science, Consciousness and Ultimate Reality written by David Lorimer and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2016-11-30 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This interdisciplinary volume arises out of a series of university events arranged by the Scientific and Medical Network between November 2001 and July 2003. The Science, Consciousness and Ultimate Reality project was set up with the support of the John Templeton Foundation in order to examine critical issues at the interface between science, religion and the relatively new field of ‘consciousness studies'. The results give a variety of fascinating perspectives on this emerging area. David Lorimer has brought together an impressive list of contributors representing the diverse fields of physics, neuroscience, psychology, theology and moral philosophy: Denis Alexander, Bernard Carr, Chris Clarke, Guy Claxton, Peter Fenwick, David Fontana, John Habgood, Mary Midgley, Ravi Ravindra, Alan Torrance and Keith Ward.
Book Synopsis A New Kind of Science by : Stephen Wolfram
Download or read book A New Kind of Science written by Stephen Wolfram and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 1197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work presents a series of dramatic discoveries never before made public. Starting from a collection of simple computer experiments---illustrated in the book by striking computer graphics---Wolfram shows how their unexpected results force a whole new way of looking at the operation of our universe. Wolfram uses his approach to tackle a remarkable array of fundamental problems in science: from the origin of the Second Law of thermodynamics, to the development of complexity in biology, the computational limitations of mathematics, the possibility of a truly fundamental theory of physics, and the interplay between free will and determinism.
Book Synopsis Decoding Jung's Metaphysics by : Bernardo Kastrup
Download or read book Decoding Jung's Metaphysics written by Bernardo Kastrup and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2021-02-26 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than an insightful psychologist, Carl Gustav Jung was the twentieth century's greatest articulator of the primacy of mind in nature, a view whose origins vanish behind the mists of time. Underlying Jung's extraordinary body of work, and providing a foundation for it, there is a broad and sophisticated system of metaphysical thought. This system, however, is only implied in Jung's writings, so as to shield his scientific persona from accusations of philosophical speculation. The present book scrutinizes Jung’s work to distil and reveal that extraordinary, hidden metaphysical treasure: for Jung, mind and world are one and the same entity; reality is fundamentally experiential, not material; the psyche builds and maintains its body, not the other way around; and the ultimate meaning of our sacrificial lives is to serve God by providing a reflecting mirror to God’s own instinctive mentation. Embodied in this compact volume is a journey of discovery through Jungian thoughtscapes never before revealed with the depth, force and scholarly rigor you are about to encounter.
Book Synopsis The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind by : Julian Jaynes
Download or read book The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind written by Julian Jaynes and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 2000-08-15 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National Book Award Finalist: “This man’s ideas may be the most influential, not to say controversial, of the second half of the twentieth century.”—Columbus Dispatch At the heart of this classic, seminal book is Julian Jaynes's still-controversial thesis that human consciousness did not begin far back in animal evolution but instead is a learned process that came about only three thousand years ago and is still developing. The implications of this revolutionary scientific paradigm extend into virtually every aspect of our psychology, our history and culture, our religion—and indeed our future. “Don’t be put off by the academic title of Julian Jaynes’s The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind. Its prose is always lucid and often lyrical…he unfolds his case with the utmost intellectual rigor.”—The New York Times “When Julian Jaynes . . . speculates that until late in the twentieth millennium BC men had no consciousness but were automatically obeying the voices of the gods, we are astounded but compelled to follow this remarkable thesis.”—John Updike, The New Yorker “He is as startling as Freud was in The Interpretation of Dreams, and Jaynes is equally as adept at forcing a new view of known human behavior.”—American Journal of Psychiatry
Book Synopsis Essays: Scientific, Political, & Speculative (Vol. 1-3) by : Herbert Spencer
Download or read book Essays: Scientific, Political, & Speculative (Vol. 1-3) written by Herbert Spencer and published by e-artnow. This book was released on 2020-10-27 with total page 1257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 3-volume book features a comprehensive collection of most significant scientific, political and speculative essays by Herbert Spencer. The first volume is made up of essays in which the idea of evolution, general or special is dominant. In the second volume essays dealing with philosophical questions, with abstract and concrete science, and with aesthetics, are brought together; but though all of them are tacitly evolutionary, their evolutionism is an incidental rather than a necessary trait. The ethical, political, and social essays composing the third volume, though mostly written from the evolution point of view, have for their more immediate purposes the enunciation of doctrines which are directly practical in their bearings._x000D_ Volume 1:_x000D_ The Development Hypothesis_x000D_ Progress: Its Law and Cause_x000D_ Transcendental Physiology_x000D_ The Nebular Hypothesis_x000D_ Illogical Geology_x000D_ Bain on the Emotions and the Will_x000D_ The Social Organism_x000D_ The Origin of Animal Worship_x000D_ Morals and Moral Sentiments_x000D_ The Comparative Psychology of Man_x000D_ Mr. Martineau on Evolution_x000D_ The Factors of Organic Evolution_x000D_ Volume 2:_x000D_ The Genesis of Science_x000D_ The Classification of the Sciences_x000D_ Reasons for Dissenting From the Philosophy of M.

Book Synopsis The Roar of Awakening by : George Derfer
Download or read book The Roar of Awakening written by George Derfer and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2013-05-02 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary goal of this volume is to describe the contemporary state of affairs in Western psychotherapy, and to do so in a Whiteheadian spirit: with genuine openness to the relative ways in which creativity, beauty, truth, and peace manifest themselves in various cultural traditions. This Whiteheadian Dialogue explores afresh an important cross-elucidatory path: what have we, and what can be learned from a dialogue with Eastern worldviews? In order to generate meaningful contrasts between these different systems of thought, all the papers address common core issues. On one hand, how does the given system understand the interaction of the individual, society, and nature (or cosmos)? On the other hand, what is the paradigm of all pathology and what is its typical or curative pattern?

Book Synopsis Consciousness - My Ultimate Reality by : Mohamed Raad
Download or read book Consciousness - My Ultimate Reality written by Mohamed Raad and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2024-04-14 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an invitation to a journey that requires no physical travel or pilgrimage to a holy place. It is not a question of leaving the earthly world and pretending to arrive in paradise. It is simply an intimate self-inquiry; where there are no other realities or other beings. There exists deep within us a capacity for discernment between the Eternal and the ephemeral or between the Ultimate Reality, which does not change, and the material world, which is in perpetual change. The Ultimate Reality consists, for the author, of recognizing and manifesting the Divinity within oneself and of perceiving this Divinity in the Cosmos. As soon as this Ultimate Reality or Consciousness is found, man frees himself from the person he thought he was. Peace and happiness he has always sought outside of himself are finally found within him. It is the most important trip of his life.

Book excerpt: The globally renowned spiritual teacher offers a guide to awakening our most enlightened nature—the unified awareness behind all consciousness. Interest in nondual awareness as the essence of spiritual awakening is rapidly expanding throughout the Western world. Those who follow spiritual paths, such as Buddhism, Hinduism, Sufism, and Kabbalism, often come up against a kind of ceiling due to their religion’s cultural context or a belief system that places awakening beyond the reach of adherents. For years, Elias Amidon has helped seekers break through their blockages with his nine-month Open Path trainings conducted all over the world. In The Open Path, Amidon shares the lessons and exercises of these trainings. It is a guide to the realization of the silent ground of all being, and to expressing that realization in your daily life.
Book Synopsis Moral Development and Reality by : John C. Gibbs
Download or read book Moral Development and Reality written by John C. Gibbs and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013-08-02 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Moral Development and Reality explores the nature of moral development, human behavior, and social interconnections. The exploration elucidates the full range of moral development, from superficial perception to a deeper understanding and feeling through social perspective-taking. By comparing, contrasting, and going beyond the key theories of preeminent thinkers Lawrence Kohlberg, Martin Hoffman, and Jonathan Haidt, author John C. Gibbs tackles vital questions: What exactly is morality and its development? Can the key theoretical perspectives be integrated? What accounts for prosocial behavior, and how can we understand and treat antisocial behavior? Does moral development, including moments of moral inspiration, reflect a deeper reality? This third edition of Moral Development and Reality is thoroughly updated, refined, and expanded. A major addition to this volume is the attention to the work of Jonathan Haidt, a prominent theorist who studies the psychological bases of morality across cultures and political ideologies. Gibbs is authoritative with respect to Kohlberg's, Hoffman's, and Haidt's theories, thanks in good measure to his privileged position, having worked or been acquainted with all three of these key figures for decades. A new foreword by David Moshman introduces the third edition, calling it "the most important contribution to the study of moral development since the turn of the century." Moral Development and Reality will have broad appeal across academic and applied disciplines, especially education and the helping professions. With its case studies and chapter questions, it also serves as a text in advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in social/developmental psychology and human development.
