Sinossi

In "The Three Critiques: The Critique of Pure Reason, The Critique of Practical Reason, and The Critique of Judgment," Immanuel Kant presents a groundbreaking exploration of epistemology, ethics, and aesthetics, fundamentally reshaping Western philosophy. Each critique acts as a pillar in Kant's critical philosophy, addressing the limits of human understanding, the nature of moral judgment, and the conditions for aesthetic appreciation. The texts are marked by a rigorous analytic style, replete with intricate arguments and foundational concepts such as the categorical imperative and the aesthetic sublime that anchor Kant's transcendental idealism within both metaphysics and human experience. Immanuel Kant (1724-1804), a pivotal figure in Enlightenment thought, was profoundly influenced by the philosophical debates of his time, especially regarding the nature of knowledge and morality. His engagement with rationalism and empiricism led to his distinct method of critical examination, seeking to resolve the tensions between subjective experience and objective reality. The challenges posed by skepticism and dogmatism drove Kant to develop a comprehensive framework that articulated the relationship between reason, will, and the aesthetic experience. Scholars and readers alike will find "The Three Critiques" indispensable for understanding modern philosophy's emergence. With clarity and depth, Kant'Äôs works not only provide a robust foundation for ethical and aesthetic inquiry but also challenge readers to contemplate their own cognitive capacities and moral responsibilities. This collection is essential for anyone seeking insight into the philosophical currents that define contemporary thought.

Inner Revolution Poetry 2 - Time...

Jan Wolter

This book has been compiled during pilgrimages in India and around the world capturing bhakti, the spiritual path of devotional service.
Herein one finds poems about the spiritual master, practicing bhakti, connecting to God and living a life of spiritual pursuit.
From the Foreword
The beauty of poetry is also practical. It is said in the Vedic scripture that to be a poet is one of the divine qualities possessed by devotees of the Lord. Like an ornament it enhances the character of a person, if he is using this poetry not for own sense gratification, but for glorification of the Supreme Person. That is the only work of a poet, namely to glorify the all-attractive person, literally Kṛṣṇa.
Words that do not glorify the All-attractive Person, Kṛṣṇa, are considered by saintly persons to be like places of pilgrimage for crows. Swan-like devotees who are actually residents of the kingdom of God do not derive any pleasure there. Thus, I follow in the footsteps of my spiritual teachers who were all expert poets and writers.
2016, as a believer and traveler I came to win back faith. Finding shelter with the wisdom texts of the Vedas, a doorway to self-realisation was opened. Self-realisation is nothing cheap, but the sole purpose of human existence. This human form of life is essentially meant for inquiring about the Absolute Truth.
When this mystical door opened, I had insight into spiritual truth, substantial, enlightened and blissful. In a state of meditation this spiritual drop touched my heart and I tried to get hold of it. Expressing my experiences in words of poetry helped to channel these spiritual visions and insights.

Unfinished Business - The...

Henry McLeish, James Mitchell

We want to move beyond politics in which each party seeks to outmanoeuvre others and score a decisive victory. This leads to political stalemate. We want to reflect on the successes and failures of devolution and offer a series of proposals for reform that could be embraced by a broad swathe of opinion.
What were the hopes and aspirations of devolution?
To what extent has devolution been successful?
What are the challenges and opportunities ahead?
How can we meet the challenges and best take advantage of opportunities?
Where is Scotland heading on its unfinished journey?
How will changes in the rest of the UK impact on this journey?
In  1999, legislation was passed to create the Scottish Parliament and the Consultative Steering Group (CSG) issued its report on the Scottish Parliament's guiding principles. Four key principles were set out in the CSG report reflecting the hopes and aspirations of campaigners for a Scottish Parliament: sharing power between the people, legislators and government; greater accountability from government to Parliament to the people; facilitating accessibility, openness and responsiveness; and promoting equality. These principles remain as relevant today as they were at the Parliament's establishment though much has changed in the intervening quarter century.
In this book, former First Minister Henry McLeish, Minister responsible for devolution and chair of the CSG, and Professor James Mitchell of Edinburgh University consider the journey Scotland has been on – the challenges, obstacles and opportunities in seeking to achieve these hopes and expectations.
