Synopsis Five of the 20th century's greatest minds discuss the future of machines and whether they will ever be able to think like humans. Annotation This delightful and intriguing book invites you to a fascinating dinner at Christ`s College, Cambridge. Guests include intellectuals such as C.P. Snow, Alan Turing, J.B.S. Haldane, Erwin Schrodinger and Ludwig Wittgenstein. They come together to discuss, debate, argue and posit answers to a fundamental question - Can we build a machine that could duplicate human cognitive processes? The venue is 1949, the menu sumptuous, but unimportant. It is the intellectual inquiry into the emerging scientific issues that intrigues us. Each dinner guest brings a formidable scientific reputation to bear on the question at hand. These luminaries represent diverse and wide-ranging ideas from the fields of humanities, mathematics, biology, physics and philosophy. With great skill and verve, Dr. Casti presents the scientific and philosophical issues from the perspectives of the participants and within the context of their realities. And much to our amazement (or chagrin) we find that 50 years later, their reality is not much different from ours. While technology has changed viewpoints and perspectives, that singular and intriguing question still engenders lively debates and discussions. Only which way are we heading, and will the answer be yes or no? . Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. more information

Synopsis On October 25, 1946, in a crowded room in Cambridge, England, Ludwig Wittgenstein and Karl Popper came face to face for the first and only time. The meeting did not go well. Their loud and aggressive confrontation became the stuff of instant legend. But precisely what happened in those ten minutes remains the subject of intense disagreement. Amost immediately, rumors spread around the world that the two great philosophers had come to blows, armed with red-hot pokers. What really wnet on in that room? And what does the violence of this brief exchange tell us about these two men, modern philosophy, post-war culture, and the difference between global problems and logic puzzles? Wittgenstein's Poker is an engaging mix of philosophy, history, biography, and literary detection. At the center of the story stand the two philosophers themselves: proud, irascible, larger than life—and spoiling for a fight. Express A fascinating book about an epic philosophical dispute.

Previous owner's embossed name stamp in book front (Rev. W Gordon Trout). 197 pages. Synopsis Most of what I really need to know about how to live and what to do and how to be I learned in kindergarten. Wisdom was not at the top of the graduate school mountain, but there in the sandpile at Sunday School. These are the things I learned: Share everything. Play fair. Don't hit people. Put things back where you found them. Clean up your own mess. Don't take things that aren't yours. Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody. Wash your hands before you eat. Flush. Warm cookies and cold milk are good for you. Live a balanced life. Take a nap every afternoon. When you go out into the world, watch out for traffic, hold hands, and stick together. Annotation This book to raise the spirits and warm the heart includes the famous "Kindergarten" essay that was read on the floor of the U.S. Senate. Publishers Weekly Of these ``random jottings,'' PW said, ``Fulghum does not express uncommon thoughts here: his thoughts are those we all wish were true.'' The book's tone is set by the title piece in which the author sets out his banal credos, ranging from ``share everything'' to ``hold hands and stick together.'' (Dec.) Biography Robert Fulghum is a writer, philosopher, and public speaker, but he has also worked as a cowboy, a folksinger, an IBM salesman, a professional artist, a parish minister, a bartender, a teacher of drawing and painting, and a father. All I Really Need To Know I Learned in Kindergarten has inspired numerous theater pieces that have captivated audiences across the country. Fulghum is also the author of many New York Times bestsellers, including It Was on Fire When I Lay Down on It, Uh-Oh, and Maybe (Maybe Not), as well as two plays: All I Really Needed to Know I Learned in Kindergarten and Uh-Oh, Here Comes Christmas.

Tight spine - Bright pages. 204 pages. - Price inside dustcover: $17.50. - Annotation The author of Virtues and Values: An Introduction to Ethics shows readers how to develop a moral imagination--and have fun doing it--as he demolishes the cliches of religion and psychotherapy and entices readers into looking at the small actions that make up the big picture of character and values. From The Critics Publishers Weekly This pragmatic guide aims to penetrate the thickets of moral confusion in contemporary society. Although the subject matter is serious and of perennial concern, Halberstam ( Acing College ; Virtues and Values ), who is professor in the philosophy department at New York University, shows that while ``it takes effort to get yur ethics right . . . ethics can also be fun.'' Morality in relationships, in the expression of emotions, in the matter of judgments, and in the choices imposed by modern life are some of the aspects he addresses, with considerable verve and wit. He concedes that today's society makes it difficult for people to tie together the many strands of their personal value systems, but contends that the average person can successfully do so nevertheless. BOMC selection. (Apr.) Library Journal Writing for the lay reader, philosopher Halberstam offers a refreshing change from ethics books that sound preachy or abstruse. Rather than setting down definite principles of moral conduct, he discusses how value judgments influence our responses to a variety of commonplace situations. The result is a potpourri of topics, ranging from the importance of controlling our emotions to the value of learning to use small talk. These tidbits whet the appetite but do not provide much substance or cohesion. Halberstam urges the reader to find values to live by, yet he tends to view values as relative: ``A moral failure anywhere else is a saint in Sodom.'' Because it will appeal to the type of reader who enjoys chatty and upbeat self-help books, Everyday Ethics is appropriate for large public libraries.-- Ilse Heidmann Ali, Kyle Community Lib., Tex. .

Synopsis During his lifetime, legendary martial artist Bruce Lee formulated a complex personal philosophy—a synthesis of Eastern and Western ideals that extolled the virtues of knowledge and total mastery of one's self. However, most of his philosophical writings could be found only within the personal library of the Bruce Lee estate until now. The Warrior Within is the most comprehensive volume of these teachings, meant to help you apply Lee's philosophies to your own life. This unique guide reveals such life-affirming secrets as: * Seeing the totality of life and putting things into perspective * Understanding the concept of Yin and Yang * Defeating adversity by adapting to circumstances * Tapping into inner spiritual forces to help shape the future With a foreword by Linda Lee Cadwell and photographs and other memorabilia from Bruce Lee's short but celebrated life, The Warrior Within is an engrossing and easy-to-understand guide to the little-explored world of Bruce Lee.

Such texts are usually well beyond the comprehension of a first-time philosophy student. Students may read and reread the assignment but still have little idea what it is about, and little hope of improving by sheer effort alone. In class discussions, the all-too-common nervous silence in response to the instructor's questions only makes the matter more urgent--a text is needed that speaks to the student. - Table of Contents Each chapter ends with a Conclusion, Notes, Questions or Exercises, and "For Further Reading."
