Showing results for "Frank" in Philosophy

This short, smart book tells you everything you need to know about "nothing". What remains when you take all the matter away? Can empty space - "nothing" - exist? To answer these questions, eminent scientist Frank Close takes us on a lively and accessible journey that ranges from ancient ideas and cultural superstitions to the frontiers of current research, illuminating the story of how scientists have explored the void and the rich discoveries they have made there.

The Blind Spot goes where no science book goes, urging us to create a new scientific culture that views ourselves both as an expression of nature and as a source of nature's self-understanding, so that humanity can flourish in the new millennium.

Do you value reason, science, and independent thinking? Are you skeptical of beliefs that people maintain merely "on faith," yet you remain interested in the big questions of life? Do you hope there could be a greater purpose to the universe, if only that were realistic? If so, then philosopher Joshua Rasmussen can encourage you in your journey. Beginning with his own story of losing faith and the belief in any ultimate purpose in life, he then builds a bridge to a series of universal truths about ultimate reality.

"Schreiben heißt die Einsamkeit verteidigen, in der man sich befindet", schreibt María Zambrano. Wenn aber schon das Schreiben generell die Einsamkeit verteidigt, was geschieht in einem Tagebuch, das der vorgegebenen Form zwar folgt, sich aber gleichzeitig gegen sie zur Wehr setzt? Frank Witzel vertraute sich zwei Monate jeden Tag einem Tagebuch an, ohne dabei der Form des Tagebuchs zu vertrauen. Seine Aufzeichnungen sind gekennzeichnet von einer Skepsis gegenüber dem eigenen Erleben und Denken - und nicht zuletzt auch gegenüber dem Vorgang des Schreibens selbst.

Nach dem Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs verkörpern vier Philosoph:innen die Suche nach einem neuen Menschenbild und einer neuen Aufklärung: Theodor W. Adorno, Susan Sontag, Michel Foucault und Paul K. Feyerabend. Mit dem Ziel, die Welt besser zu verstehen und der lebensweltlichen Enge zu entfliehen, gehen sie zwischen Frankfurt, Paris, London, Berkeley und New York neue Wege, die direkt zu den großen Bruchlinien unserer Gegenwart führen.
