Synopsis

In "On Sense and Reference," Gottlob Frege delves into the intricacies of language and meaning, profoundly influencing the fields of philosophy, linguistics, and cognitive science. The work is structured around the distinctions between 'sense' (Sinn) and 'reference' (Bedeutung), proposing that the meaning of a term is not simply its referent but includes an additional cognitive component. Frege employs a rigorous analytical style, highlighting how these concepts bear on identity statements and propositional attitudes, thus laying groundwork for modern formal semantics and the philosophy of language, especially in the context of his contemporaries like Russell and Wittgenstein. Frege, regarded as a foundational figure in analytic philosophy, was motivated by the need to clarify language to resolve contemporary logical paradoxes and ambiguities. His commitment to logic and the philosophy of mathematics stemmed from his early studies in advanced mathematics, which compelled him to address the philosophical implications of language and precision in expression. This endeavor not only reflects his own intellectual struggles but also responds to a broader movement in late 19th-century philosophy to seek clarity through rigorous logical analysis. This seminal work is essential reading for anyone engaged with philosophy, especially those drawn to semantics, logic, and the foundations of language. Frege's insights remain critical for contemporary discussions in philosophy and cognitive sciences, making "On Sense and Reference" an indispensable contribution that continues to resonate with scholars and students alike.

    A prose tract or polemic by John Milton, published November 23, 1644, at the height of the English Civil War... Milton, though a supporter of the Parliament, argued forcefully against the Licensing Order of 1643, noting that such censorship had never been a part of classical Greek and Roman society. The tract is full of biblical and classical references which Milton uses to strengthen his argument. The issue was personal for Milton as he had suffered censorship himself in his efforts to publish several tracts defending divorce (a radical stance at the time and one which met with no favor from the censors)... Areopagitica is among history's most influential and impassioned philosophical defences of the principle of a right to free speech. (Summary by Wikipedia)

    Constantine I, often called Constantine the Great, was one of the most significant emperors of ancient Rome, reigning from 306 to 337 AD. Born in Naissus, in the province of Dacia Mediterranea (modern-day Niš, Serbia), he was the son of Flavius Constantius, a Roman army officer and a prominent figure in the Tetrarchy, and Helena, a woman of humble Greek origins. His father's position as one of the four emperors in the Tetrarchy was instrumental in shaping Constantine's early life and military career. Under emperors Diocletian and Galerius, Constantine demonstrated his military prowess, initially fighting against barbarian tribes and the Persians in the eastern provinces. In 305 AD, he was summoned to the West to aid his father in campaigns in Britain, where he earned further distinction. 
    Following the death of his father in 306 AD, Constantine’s soldiers declared him emperor at Eboracum (modern York, England). Over the next two decades, he would overcome rival emperors, such as Maxentius and Licinius, in a series of civil wars, eventually becoming the sole ruler of the Roman Empire by 324 AD. His reign marked a period of significant transformation, both militarily and administratively. 
    To strengthen the empire, Constantine initiated a series of reforms. He reorganized the imperial administration, separating civil and military powers to create a more efficient system of governance. Acknowledging the need for economic stability, he introduced the solidus, a new gold coin that helped curb inflation. This currency would become the standard for Byzantine and European economies for nearly a millennium. He also restructured the Roman army, creating specialized units that could respond swiftly to internal threats and barbarian invasions.

    When you are faced with a decision, do you consider the best outcome, or do you consider your deepest values about which actions are appropriate? The Cost of Conviction contrasts these two primary strategies for making decisions: consequentialism, the former, or prioritizing one's sacred values, the latter. Steven Sloman argues that, while both modes of decision making are necessary tools for a good decision maker, people err by deploying sacred values more often than they should, especially when it comes to sociopolitical issues. In this book, Sloman provides a new understanding of today's societal ills and grounds that understanding in science. 
     
     
     
    The book begins by covering the philosophical and conceptual background of the two decision-making strategies, then takes a deep dive into the psychology of decision making. Drawing on historical and current examples of the use of the two strategies, the author provides a thorough overview of the psychology of decision making, including work on judgment, conscious and unconscious decision-making processes, the roles of emotion, and even an analysis of habit and addiction. 
     
     
     
    With its unique emphasis on sacred values, The Cost of Conviction is an eye-opening must-listen for all decision makers, especially those who wish to understand judgment, social decision making, and leadership.
