Beschreibung

Peter Kreeft, esteemed philosophy professor and author of over eighty books, has taught college philosophy for sixty years. Throughout those decades, he yearned for a beginner's philosophy text that was clear, accessible, enjoyable, and exciting (perhaps even funny). Finding none that met those criteria, he eventually decided to write it himself.  In this four-volume series, Kreeft delivers, with his characteristic wit and clarity, an introduction to philosophy via the hundred greatest philosophers of all time. Socrates’ Children examines the big ideas of four major eras―ancient, medieval, modern, and contemporary―and immerses the reader in the “great conversation,” the ongoing dialogue among the great thinkers of history, including the most influential philosopher of all: Socrates, the father of Western philosophy.  Volume I: Ancient Philosophers investigates the foundations of philosophy laid by the ancient sages, Greeks, and Romans and introduces the philosophers who asked the first great philosophical questions―about good and evil; truth and falsehood; wisdom, beauty, and love; and the self, the world, and God.

    Both, namely the Heart and Mind, are the basic ingredients for forming a humble person. 
    The heart is like a small child who if left alone will endanger himself and others, Mind is like a 
    parent who if there are no children, the completeness of the family becomes unbalanced. The 
    heart will be good if it comes from wise directions at the level of reason, but it will be bad if it 
    comes from directions to the lack of understanding of the Mind. 
    This reason is also developed into a beautiful sentence from the scholars of wisdom, namely 
    العقل السليم فى الجسم التسليم 
    "A good reason is found in a good body" 
    in that sentence, there are those who say that its application is very dialectical, meaning that not 
    only is the reason mentioned first, all humans are able to implement it. the meaning of that 
    sentence is that the body can be the first application. dialectic is one of the evidences of a fact 
    where something cannot be 
    a thing that stops statically or definitely, it is so easy to move position from the beginning to 
    point A to point B, from being at point B a minute later it can be positioned at 
    point A, the most important part in this case is Nothing Is Out of the Participation 
    of the Almighty. Namely "a good body is very strongly bound to a good mind" 
    then it becomes; 
    الجسم السليم فى العقل التسليم 
    According to the famous Cultural Expert and Scholar Emha Ainun Nadjib, the following are the 
    various kinds of inversions of a dialectic, which are the diversity of perspectives and ways of 
    thinking of every human being who is willing to process it, for the sake of continuity and 
    suitability of a life path that is carried out.

    What if the rules of modern capitalism were written during the Third Reich?  Reinhard Höhn (1904-2000) was a commander of the SS, one of Nazi Germany’s most brilliant legal minds, and an archetype of the fervid technocrats and intellectuals that built the Third Reich. Following Germany’s defeat, after a few years in hiding, he emerged in the early 1950s as the founder and director of a renowned management school in Lower Saxony.  Höhn’s story wouldn’t be very different from that of many other prominent Nazis if not for the fact that a vast number of Germany’s postwar business leaders—more than 600,000 executives—were educated at his management school.  In this fascinating book, Johann Chapoutot, one of France’s most brilliant historians, traces the profound links between Nazism and the principles of modern corporate management, our definitions of success, and a concept of personal freedom that masks rigid hierarchical structures of power and control.  “One of the most gifted European historians of his generation.”—Timothy Snyder, New York Times best-selling author of On Tyranny

    This book is all about mass disappearances which have occurred in history. 
    These events run the gamut from entire villages whose inhabitants disappeared to a flight of military planes gone missing in the Bermuda Triangle. 
    Many ships have disappeared so I only cover a few of the most notorious ones.  
    I also do not usually cover missing families or where just several people have gone absent. 
    It is much more interesting to me if an entire army became lost and missing or strange things happened to a group which has become a big mystery. 
    There are also some recent missing persons mysteries since these events happen even in the modern age.
