Logic as the Science of the Pure Concept

Benedetto Croce

Maison d'édition: DigiCat

Synopsis

In "Logic as the Science of the Pure Concept," Benedetto Croce presents a nuanced exploration of logic as a vital philosophical discipline that transcends mere formalism. The text argues for a conception of logic deeply intertwined with aesthetics and ethics, emphasizing the role of human creativity in the formation of concepts. Written in Croce's distinctive lyrical style, the book advocates for a dynamic interpretation of logic that sees it as a living, evolving science rather than a static set of rules, reflecting the broader context of early 20th-century thought that grappled with the implications of idealism and the limitations of empiricism. Benedetto Croce (1866-1952), an influential Italian philosopher and historian, was driven by the belief that philosophy should address the complexities of human experience. His commitment to idealist thought and the dialectical method is evidenced in this work, which draws upon his extensive background in aesthetics and historical materialism. Croce's multifaceted career as a political figure and a cultural critic further informs his insights, positioning him as a central figure in the revival of philosophical inquiry in post-Risorgimento Italy. Highly recommended for scholars and students alike, Croce's treatise offers a profound reexamination of logic that challenges preconceived notions and invites readers to engage with concepts in a novel way. By bridging the gap between abstract reasoning and the lived experiences of individuals, this work not only enriches our understanding of logic but also redefines its significance within the broader spectrum of human thought.

The Bitter End - The 2020...

John Sides, Lynn Vavreck, Chris...

The year 2020 was a tumultuous time in American politics. It brought a global pandemic, protests for racial justice, and a razor-thin presidential election outcome. It culminated in an attack on the US Capitol that attempted to deny Joe Biden's victory. The Bitter End explores the long-term trends and short-term shocks that shaped this dramatic year and what these changes could mean for the future. 
 
 
 
John Sides, Chris Tausanovitch, and Lynn Vavreck demonstrate that Trump's presidency intensified the partisan politics of the previous decades. Presidential elections have become calcified, with less chance of big swings in either party's favor. Republicans remained loyal to Trump and kept the election close, despite Trump's many scandals, a recession, and the pandemic. But in a narrowly divided electorate even small changes can have big consequences. The pandemic was a case in point: when Trump pushed to reopen the country even as infections mounted, support for Biden increased. The authors explain that, paradoxically, even as Biden's win came at a time of heightened party loyalty, there remained room for shifts that shaped the election's outcome. Ultimately, the events of 2020 showed that instead of the country coming together to face national challenges—the pandemic, George Floyd's murder, and the Capitol riot—these challenges only reinforced divisions.

The Secret Ingredients in Your...

John Harpoon

The food we consume each day often seems simple — bread, cereal, snacks, and beverages that fill grocery store shelves. Yet behind these seemingly ordinary products lies a hidden world of chemicals, additives, and artificial ingredients that most consumers never notice. While food labels provide some insight, the reality is that many harmful substances are deliberately disguised with complex names or misleading descriptions. This secrecy has allowed big food companies to use potentially dangerous ingredients while marketing their products as safe, natural, or even healthy.  
  
One major reason these additives are so widespread is their role in extending shelf life, enhancing flavor, and improving texture. Preservatives, for example, allow products to last for months or even years without spoiling. While this may seem convenient, some preservatives have been linked to serious health concerns such as hormonal disruption, digestive issues, and even increased cancer risks. Similarly, flavor enhancers like monosodium glutamate (MSG) are designed to trigger cravings and increase consumption, yet they may also contribute to headaches, fatigue, and neurological problems.  
  
Artificial sweeteners, another common additive, are often marketed as healthier alternatives to sugar. However, studies suggest that these substances may interfere with metabolism, increase the risk of obesity, and disrupt gut bacteria. Even seemingly harmless color additives — used to make processed foods appear vibrant and appealing — have been linked to behavioral changes in children and allergic reactions in some adults.

Insight of others thoughts -...

Nils Goldschmidt

You know how your partner or colleague typically reacts, but with this book, you will also understand their fundamental motives. This way, you can avoid many arguments that follow the same pattern as the last time you disagreed. The same logic will help you in the future when completing a task for your boss. When dealing with customers, you will instinctively know whether they seek something innovative or reassurance about their purchase. In addition to being able to read others’ thoughts, you will also understand how people perceive you.
The book is logically structured and easy to understand. It includes many practical examples of the four different roles we all take on. As you read, you won’t be able to help but think of the various people you interact with—and you will see them in a whole new light. The book has been developed over many years through team-building exercises, where participants have defended their behavior in demanding and complex collaborations. You will feel proud of yourself and your behavior when you realize the unconscious values that guide you. Unfortunately, not everyone shares your values.
Do you know the feeling of just clicking with certain people? Feeling a sense of connection with them? You can experience that same feeling with many others, even if they seem different from you. Even those closest to us may not share the same values, which is why differing opinions and decisions can lead to conflict. But imagine if you saw it as an advantage to be with someone who has different values—and therefore different strengths. Together, you can achieve so much more.
As normal human beings, we often focus on the personal traits that we struggle with the most when interacting with others. The problem is that we tend to see the downside of these traits and not the person's strengths.
