Der "Tractatus logico-philosophicus" ist das frühe Hauptwerk des Philosophen Ludwig Wittgenstein und das einzige philosophische Buch, das er zu Lebzeiten veröffentlicht.

Hermeticism or Hermetism is a philosophical system based on the purported teachings of Hermes Trismegistus (a legendary Hellenistic combination of the Greek god Hermes and the Egyptian god Thoth). These teachings are contained in the various writings attributed to Hermes (the Hermetica), which were produced over a period spanning many centuries (c. 300 BCE — 1200 CE) and may be very different in content and scope.

Impertinente, in senso letterale, è chi «non appartiene»: ad esempio, a una politica, una religione o una filosofia. E, non appartenendo, suscita i risentimenti e le stizze di coloro che, appartenendo, lo tacciano di arroganza o insolenza. Il matematico impertinente è una specie del genere...

Gary Cox guides us through 42 of the most misunderstood, misquoted, provocative, and significant quotes in the history of philosophy, providing witty and compelling commentary along the way.

This text is unusual in Atkinson's oeuvre, in that it contains no discussion of spiritual or metaphysical topics. In clear, unambiguous language, the author commences with a definition of reasoning and proceeds with an examination of the various forms in which it can be applied. He discusses the steps involved in the formation and testing of hypotheses and concludes with a discussion of common fallacies. Although Atkinson was neither a philosopher nor a scientist, this text is a well-structured and accessible introduction to the application of the principles of logic.
