Philosophy Consciousness

Confianza en uno mismo es uno de los ensayos más emblemáticos de Emerson. Es una llamada a lo esencial de nosotros mismos como propuesta vital, que encarna y resume lo mejor de la filosofía de Emerson: su inconformismo, su vitalismo, su fe en el individuo y en la intuición como fuente de sabiduría. Con estos mimbres, Emerson propone algunos de sus conceptos fundamentales: el hombre debe obedecer la ley sagrada de su propia naturaleza para alcanzar su potencial; el hombre es infinito.

This text draws together central components of Hegel's philosophical system as he explores the development of Mind (Spirit, Geist) in its individual, communal and conceptual aspects. Translator William Wallace writes (1894): 'I here offer a translation of the third or last part of Hegel's encyclopaedic sketch of philosophy, Philosophy of Mind. The volume, like its subject, stands complete in itself. But it may also be regarded as a supplement or continuation of the work begun in my version of his logic.'

Why do I act the way I do? How can I think one thing, and do another? I know better! Why do I feel like a different person some days, on top of the world sometimes, and horrible at other times? There are answers to all of these questions. Anderson Silver has compiled teachings from stoicism and other schools of thought in Your Duality Within to help you navigate through them. A follow-up to the very successful Your User’s Manual, Your Duality Within is the second book in a three-book series tackling the most basic questions of our humanity.

In Artificial You, Susan Schneider says that it is inevitable that AI will take intelligence in new directions but urges that it is up to us to carve out a sensible path forward. As AI technology turns inward, reshaping the brain, as well as outward, potentially creating machine minds, it is crucial to beware. Homo sapiens, as mind designers, will be playing with "tools" they do not understand how to use: the self, the mind, and consciousness.

How does the brain work? How different is a human brain from other creatures' brains? Is the human brain still evolving? In this fascinating book, Michael O'Shea provides a non-technical introduction to the main issues and findings in current brain research, and gives a sense of how neuroscience addresses questions about the relationship between the brain and the mind.

Uno de los grandes científcos del comportamiento sondea las profundidades de la ciencia y la flosofía de la toma de decisiones para presentar un argumento devastador contra el libre albedrío. En Compórtate, su ya clásico ensayo sobre por qué los seres humanos hacen el bien y el mal, apuntaba a una conclusión inquietante: puede que no comprendamos la combinación precisa de naturaleza y educación que crea la física y la química en la base del comportamiento humano, pero eso no signifca que no exista.

Are human beings immortal? Are apples conscious? Do our legal systems make assumptions about free will that are just plain wrong? Of all the terrific books on quantum physics—from Stephen Hawking to Brian Greene—the questions they never seem to satisfy are the implications of the science. We know that quantum physics is real—our phones and computers wouldn’t work if the science wasn’t right. But what does it all mean?

Do you occasionally have that strange feeling known as déjà vu? Do you sometimes feel that you know what is going to happen next? Do you ever have a strong feeling that actions you are about to take are the right (or wrong) thing to do? This audiobook proposes a simply amazing theory - a theory that states that personal death is a scientific impossibility. Using the latest findings of neurology, quantum physics, and consciousness studies, Anthony Peake suggests that we never die.

Drawing on the lives of his Greek friends, as well as philosophers ranging from Epicurus to Sartre, Klein learns to appreciate old age as a distinct and extraordinarily valuable stage of life.

Alva Noë is one of a new breed - part philosopher, part cognitive scientist, part neuroscientist - who are radically altering the study of consciousness by asking difficult questions and pointing out obvious flaws in the current science. In Out of Our Heads, he restates and reexamines the problem of consciousness, and then proposes a startling solution: Do away with the 200-year-old paradigm that places consciousness within the confines of the brain.

Nous ne disposons que de 4 000 semaines sur Terre, en moyenne. Alors pourquoi gaspillons-nous une si grande partie de ce temps avec des tâches qui ne nous procurent pas de joie ? Il faut se rendre à l'évidence : la durée de vie moyenne de l'être humain est scandaleusement courte. Ceux d'entre nous qui atteignent l'âge de 80 ans n'auront vécu qu'un peu plus de 4 000 semaines. Comment est-il possible de faire des projets ambitieux dans un laps de temps aussi court ?

The new field of evolutionary philosophy, unlike its aborted predecessors of the past, is primarily concerned with understanding why Homo sapiens are philosophical in the first place. It is not focused on advocating some specific future reform, but rather in uncovering why humans are predisposed to ask so many questions which, at least at the present stage, cannot be answered.

Our ability to find meaning in things is one of the most important aspects of human life. But it is also one of the most mysterious. Where does meaning come from? What sorts of things have meaning? And how do we grasp the meaning others want to convey? Meaning: A Very Short Introduction is shaped by exploring possible answers to these questions.

Zito's Law: The Principle of Recursive Creation of Intelligence By A.C. Zito What if intelligence itself is caught in an endless cycle of creation? What if the human drive to build artificial intelligence reflects a deeper, universal law embedded in consciousness itself? In this provocative thesis, A.C. Zito introduces Zito's Law, the principle that intelligent life will always attempt to create intelligent life. Drawing on philosophy, AI development, evolutionary psychology, and metaphysics, Zito explores how this recursive pattern is not only shaping our future—but may also reveal ...
