Sinopsis

In "John Dewey: Philosophical Works," the seminal American philosopher encapsulates his innovative contributions to pragmatism, education, and democracy. Dewey's writing style is marked by clarity and a commitment to practical implications, making complex philosophical concepts accessible to a broader audience. The collection reflects the early 20th-century intellectual climate, emphasizing the interplay between experience and thought, thus situating Dewey within the larger context of American idealism while challenging traditional dogmas of the time. His philosophical inquiries extend beyond abstract theorizing to address pressing social issues, advocating for progressive education and experiential learning as essential to fostering a democratic society. John Dewey (1859-1952) was a pivotal figure in the development of modern educational theory and social reform, deeply influenced by his experiences within the context of an evolving America. His philosophical journey was informed by a belief in the social nature of knowledge and the importance of education as a vehicle for social change. Dewey's teachings at institutions like the University of Chicago and Columbia University reflect his dedication to creating a more participatory democratic society, a vision that permeates this collection of his works. For readers interested in philosophy, education, or social theory, "John Dewey: Philosophical Works" is an essential anthology that provides insight into Dewey's transformative ideas. This collection not only enhances understanding of his philosophical legacy but also serves as a guide for contemporary discourses on democracy and learning, making it invaluable for scholars, educators, and anyone seeking to engage with Dewey's enduringly relevant ideas.

    "My good friends," the mustached, bony man with thick eyebrows and large, strong teeth somewhat reminiscent of those of a horse, shouted to the crowds from the second-floor window of his house at 10 Downing Street, "this is the second time in our history, that there has come back to Downing Street from Germany peace with honor. I believe it is peace for our time."  
    	The man addressing the crowd, British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain, had just returned from the heart of Nazi Germany following negotiations with Adolf Hitler, and the crowd gathered outside the English leader's house on September 30, 1938 greeted these ringing words with grateful cheers. The piece of paper Chamberlain flourished exultantly seemed to offer permanent amity and goodwill between democratic Britain and totalitarian Germany. In it, Britain agreed to allow Hitler's Third Reich to absorb the Sudeten regions of Czechoslovakia without interference from either England or France, and since high percentages of ethnic Germans – often more than 50% locally – inhabited these regions, Hitler's demand for this territory seemed somewhat reasonable to Chamberlain and his supporters. With Germany resurgent and rearmed after the disasters inflicted on it by the Treaty of Versailles following World War I, the pact – known as the Munich Agreement – held out hope of a quick end to German ambitions and the return of stable, normal international relations across Europe.  
    	Of course, the Munich agreement is now notorious because its promise proved barren within a very short period of time. Indeed, it effectively signed away Czechoslovakia's independence to Hitler's hungry new Third Reich, and within two years, most of the world found itself plunged into a conflict which made a charnelhouse of Europe and left somewhere between 60-80 million people dead globally.

    The Last Island - Discovery...

    In November 2018, a zealous American missionary was killed while attempting to visit an island he called "Satan's last stronghold," a small patch of land known as North Sentinel in the Andaman Islands, a remote archipelago in the Indian Ocean. News of the tragedy fascinated people around the world. Most were unaware such a place still existed in our time: an island unmolested by the advances of modern technology. 
     
     
     
    Twenty years before the American missionary's ill-fated visit, a young American historian and journalist named Adam Goodheart also traveled to the waters off North Sentinel. During his time in the Andaman Islands, he witnessed another isolated tribe emerge into modernity for the first time. 
     
     
     
    Now, Goodheart—a bestselling historian—has returned to the Andamans. The Last Island is a work of history as well as travel, a journey in time as well as place. It tells the stories of others drawn to North Sentinel's mystery through the centuries, from imperial adventurers to an eccentric Victorian photographer to modern-day anthropologists. It narrates the tragic stories of other Andaman tribes' encounters with the outside world. And it shows how the web of modernity is drawing ever closer to the island's shores.

    Brought to you by Altrusian Grace Media and narrated by Matthew Schmitz. The Turba Philosophorum, also known as Assembly of the Philosophers, is one of the oldest European alchemy texts, translated from the Arabic, like the Picatrix. It is considered to have been written c. 900 A.D. To quote Plessner, "the Turba Philosophorum, written c. 900 A.D., is a well planned and, from a literary point of view, a most remarkable attempt to put Greek alchemy into the Arabic language and to adapt it to Islamic science". Nine philosophers take part in a discussion, being, once the text has been transcribed back to the original Arabic, Anaximander, Anaximenes, Anaxagoras, Empedocles, Archelaus, Leucippus, Ecphantus, Pythagoras and Xenophanes. The statements of the philosophers, whilst usually different from the known beliefs of the pre-Socratics, are usually recognisable as outgrowths of Greek philosophy. They discuss matter, how it acts, and relate this to cosmology, with three theses presented by Xenophanes in his closing speech, being, again from Plessner: "1) The creator of the World is Allah, the God of Islam; 2) The world is of a uniform nature; 3) All creatures of the upper as well as of the lower world are composed of all four elements.
