En esta obra Jacobo Grinberg retoma una idea compartida por los estudios fisiológicos del cerebro y la filosofía: el mundo exterior es una descripción basada enprocesos y operaciones que ocurren en nuestro interior, es decir, en nuestro cerebro y conciencia. De este modo, lo que llamamos “realidad” sería un constructo basado en la activación de ciertos patrones neuronales mediante la percepción, según explica el propio autor.

Philosopher Alva Noë explores the inseparability of life, art, and philosophy, arguing that we have greatly underestimated what this entangled reality means for understanding human nature. Life supplies art with its raw materials, but art, Noë argues, remakes life by giving us resources to live differently. Our lives are permeated with the aesthetic. Indeed, human nature is an aesthetic phenomenon, and art is the truest way of understanding ourselves. All this suggests that human nature is not a natural phenomenon.

Most people believe that they were either benefited or at least not harmed by being brought into existence. Thus, if they ever do reflect on whether they should bring others into existence—rather than having children without even thinking about whether they should—they presume that they do them no harm. Better Never to Have Been challenges these assumptions. David Benatar argues that coming into existence is always a serious harm.

Philosophy of Mind is the third and final part of the Encyclopaedia of the Philosophical Sciences, the collection in which Hegel (1730-1831) offered an overview of his life’s work. Though originally written in 1817, he revised it in 1830, thus providing a finished form the year before his death. Hegel used the three parts of the Encyclopaedia - Science of Logic, Philosophy of Nature and Philosophy of Mind - as a basis for lectures at the Universities of Heidelberg which he joined in 1816, and in Berlin in 1820.

Our ability to find meaning in things is one of the most important aspects of human life. But it is also one of the most mysterious. Where does meaning come from? What sorts of things have meaning?

While the general storyline is largely known, a lot of questions and myths prevail, such as—What was the geographical extent of the war?

Während der Jahre des Ersten Weltkrieges widmete sich Steiner intensiv der Verteidigung seiner anthroposophischen Geisteswissenschaft gegen zeitgenössische Kritiker. Die Schrift ›Von Seelenrätseln‹ von 1917 ist Ausdruck dieser Bemühungen. Steiner legt darin Wert darauf, die Anthroposophie methodisch klarer zu fassen als in früheren Texten und deren Forschungsansatz methodisch gegenüber dem naturwissenschaftlichen Paradigma zu verorten.

Combining ideas from philosophy, artificial intelligence, and neurobiology, Daniel Dennett leads the listener on a fascinating journey of inquiry, exploring such intriguing possibilities as: Can any of us really know what is going on in someone else's mind? What distinguishes the human mind from the minds of animals, especially those capable of complex behavior? If such animals, for instance, were magically given the power of language, would their communities evolve an intelligence as subtly discriminating as ours?
