Kant's Master WorkPublished in 1797, The Philosophy of Law
Rechtslehre] stands as one of the most significant late works by
the great Prussian philosopher. Though he lived in an atmosphere of
political and social repression, it is evident that Kant was
sensitive to the revolutionary spirit that was spreading throughout
Europe in the wake of Napoleon's armies. Claiming that man is born
with reason and an innate desire for freedom, he argued that the
union of these natural gifts could bring about a new sense of order
and harmony in future generations. This edition also reprints
Kant's later Supplementary Explanations (1797), which was added to
the second edition (1798).Immanuel Kant 1724-1804] was the foremost
thinker of the late Enlightenment and one of the greatest figures
in the history of Western philosophy. Concerned principally with
epistemology, ethics and aesthetics, his work synthesized trends
initiated by Rationalism and Empiricism; it has been a significant
influence in the subsequent development of philosophy, religion and
law.
The role of chemistry in materials processing and performance, at
high temperatures, is a key area in today's technology. High
temperature chemistry-the combination of inorganic chemistry with
high temperatures-has undergone dramatic growth within the past 50
years.
The papers in Materials Chemistry at High Temperatures highlight,
in two outstanding volumes, the latest information and techniques
in this fast-paced field.
Essential reading for anyone involved in this innovative
technology!

temperature symposia. I hope I some of my classes when I say,
"Remember when such-and-such hap pened during the War?" And I get
this blank look, and one of the students will say, "I wasn't born
until after the Korean War. " Neverthe less, during World War II,
many people in the high-temperature field had their first
initiation. But there was one handicap. Owing to security measures,
they were not able to interact with one another. Following the War,
it was recognized that the high-temperature field was going to
expand to meet the demands for materials with unique properties. To
meet the demands for new fabrication techniques, it was important
to establish better communications among various people.
High-tempera ture symposia were established at that time and have
continued very frequently, and I'd like to point out why they are
especially important for this field. One problem is that it is not
easy to work at high temperatures."

Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, a late 18th and early 19th century
German philosopher, was one of the foremost thinkers of German
Idealism. His historicist and idealist account of reality
revolutionized European philosophy and was an important precursor
to Continental philosophy and Marxism. He created a framework known
as Absolute Idealism that was able to account for the relation of
the mind, nature, art, the state, and history. Ultimately, he
believed that the mind was comprised of several contradictory but
unified ideas that did not cancel each other out or reduce each
other's importance. According to Hegel, art revealed the
fundamental nature of existence, but he felt that art and its
significance were in decline. He wrote that art gives a physical
and sensory depiction of the Absolute; it offers an effortless
combination of form and content while giving viewers the ability to
see the world in a form that doesn't actually exist. Hegel's
"Introductory Lectures on Aesthetics," divides his most basic ideas
on art into five chapters with multiple parts outlining his
complex, but revolutionary, mindset and opinions. Like many
philosophers, Hegel's words are written with other philosophers in
mind; the arguments and counterarguments are in relation to the
other philosophical theories of the time. Anyone interested in art
history or philosophy will find this work highly informative.
