From ancient philosophy to the big bang, quantum physics, and cosmology, Titus Joseph takes us on a mind-stretching journey through time and space to unveil a new law, positional symmetry (requisite mirror image), that explains how all things come into existence through the curious symmetries found everywhere in nature. This exciting new model of the universe draws on concepts from ancient philosophy and weaves together quantum mechanics with relativity, through the observable symmetries found in nature. Our Curious World of Mirror Images sheds new light on what it means to be human in a world in which all things are interrelated. - Introducing a whole new way of looking at our world - A universal theory combining profound scientific facts seamlessly with philosophy - Written in an easy to read format with many illustrations so that anyone may understand - Reconciles the intractable problem of duality - Marries quantum theory with relativity in a relationship that works to explain reality - Provides a compelling account of spacetime that makes sense of the arrow of time - Demonstrates how all things come into being - Provides a broad overview of the cosmos as a whole entity - An eye-opener to the meaning of God - Reconciles eastern paradigms with western views - This book could change the way you see the world

Life is all about being successful and happy. Many of us have everything and yet find the real happiness missing. We are constantly in pursuit of that joy which has eluded us forever, thus far. When we realize our true nature and origin, it enables our progression towards attaining a happy and fearless state in life. Each one of us is a divine Soul; unborn, unchanging, immutable and eternal; an inseparable potency of that Supreme God, who dwells in us eternally. Though each one of us has the potential to experience a divine existence, being immortals, we have chosen to take birth in this mortal world; taking birth to die and dying to take birth again, in some 8.4 million bodies. There is a mismatch in what is happening to us. We are immortals, but the bodies we acquire in this world are not. We can attain the divine, eternal world of God, if we realize our imperishable relationship with God, who alone can grant us the state we all seek. With that realization, we can transcend causes and effects of this karmic world, overcoming grief and pain. We not only achieve material success, but also live a useful life, for the self, for our families and for the society.

"The First Pancake" provides guidance for those undergoing a life transition using an original, understandable pancake metaphor that normalizes the transition process and encourages the reader to strive for more delectable pancakes.

Tory Wilcox is a psychotherapist who provides the ingredients for managing life changes through the five stages one goes through when enjoying a batch of pancakes: the wake-up call, then the first pancake, through the blender to the perfect pancake, and finally digestion. The wake-up call encourages an examination of initial life decisions like careers and life partners. Wilcox asks us to pitch the less fulfilling pancakes or choices and start over, causing our emotions to be tossed around in a blender. Once we have realized more perfect pancakes, we can digest the changes, feel confident about making more rewarding choices and remember to keep adding to our stack. Wilcox offers concrete coping tools, self-help exercises, and resource recommendations along with real-life examples and proven strategies.

Through her innovative approach to teaching others how to successfully handle inevitable life transitions, Wilcox provides comfort and empowerment to those who believe self-fulfillment can be achieved in life through a new way of thinking and acting about change.

Henri Bergson was a great French philosopher whose life overlapped that of Charles Darwin. He had serious concerns about Darwins atheistic concept of man and animals evolution. Bergson also presented ideas of Intelligent Design almost 200 years prior to it's regeneration in the 20th century. My book separates God from Evolution of the cosmos and all it contains by espousing the "elan vitale" as "of God" and the true creater of the Universe.

This is an autobiographical sketch of selected events, with emphasis on church memberships and experiences, which affected my religious philosophy that evolved into my present convictions that all major world religions and their underlying written documentation are the works of men, to some of whom divine inspiration is attributed; that their deities are either nonexistent fabrications of the authors, interpreters, and practitioners of their particular religions, or human beings who claim to be divine, or prophets of a deity or deities, or who were determined by their followers to be such; and some related essays.

Existentialism is back Carpe diem - 'seize the day' - is one of the oldest pieces of life advice in Western history. But its true spirit has been hijacked by ad men and self-help gurus, reduced to the instant hit of one-click online shopping, or slogans like 'live in the now'. We need to reclaim it to make sense of our complex, confusing times. The last great expression of carpe diem was in the electrifying existential philosophy of the 1940s. Today it's an idea that challenges us to confront our mortality and live with greater passion and intention rather than scroll mindlessly on our phones or allow freedom to become a mere choice between brands. In Carpe Diem Regained, Roman Krznaric reinvents existentialism for our age of information and choice overload. An essential and empowering work of contemporary philosophy, the book unveils the surprising ways of seizing the day that humankind has discovered over the centuries, ones we urgently need to revive. Carpe diem is the Nexistentialism for our times.

The book series is intended to preserve the cultural legacy and to promote the timeless works of classical literature. Readers of a TREDITION CLASSICS book support the mission to save many of the amazing works of world literature from oblivion. With this series, tredition intends to make thousands of international literature classics available in printed format again - worldwide.

In this book, Paul Franceschi provides us with an introduction to analytic philosophy. In a concrete way, he chooses to describe forty paradoxes, arguments or philosophical issues that represent so many challenges for contemporary philosophy and human intelligence, for some paradoxes of millennial origin-such as the Liar or the sorites paradox-are still unresolved in the present day. Some other philosophical puzzles, however-such as the Doomsday argument-appeared only recently in the literature. The author strives to introduce us clearly to each of these problems as well as to major attempts that have been formulated to solve them.
"I'm really impressed by this very neat and stimulating book. I highly recommend it both to students for pedagogy and general culture (prisoner's dilemma, twin-earth, etc.), and to professionals as well for the reference tool and even more generally to those who like to think."
Julien Dutant, Philotropes, Philosophical blog

In the wake of much previous work on Gilles Deleuze's relations to other thinkers (including Bergson, Spinoza and Leibniz), his relation to Kant is now of great and active interest and a thriving area of research. In the context of the wider debate between 'naturalism' and 'transcendental philosophy', the implicit dispute between Deleuze's 'transcendental empiricism' and Kant's 'transcendental idealism' is of prime philosophical concern. Bringing together the work of international experts from both Deleuze scholarship and Kant scholarship, Thinking Between Deleuze and Kant addresses explicitly the varied and various connections between these two great European philosophers, providing key material for understanding the central philosophical problems in the wider 'naturalism/ transcendental philosophy' debate. The book reflects an area of great current interest in Deleuze Studies and initiates an ongoing interest in Deleuze within Kant scholarship. The contributors are Mick Bowles, Levi R. Bryant, Patricia Farrell, Christian Kerslake, Matt Lee, Michael J. Olson, Henry Somers-Hall and Edward Willatt. >
