A summary of the moral theory of Immanuel Kant, complete with objections and contrasts to Utilitarian ethical alternatives.
Immanuel Kant is undoubtedly one of the most important thinkers in the history of philosophy. He is also notoriously difficult for beginners to understand. Starting with Kant offers a genuinely accessible introduction to the metaphysics, theory of knowledge, and moral philosophy of this hugely influential figure. It assumes no prior acquaintance with his ideas. Thematically structured, the book opens with a completely non-technical overview of the development of Kant's mature thought, resulting in a wide-ranging understanding of his famous and ground breaking 'Copernican revolution in metaphysics'. The book evaluates the basic framework of his metaphysical outlook, and sets out its implications for his theory of knowledge and moral philosophy. Kant's position in these fields is related to other philosophers of his period so that a number of his seminal ideas can be clearly understood through an appreciation of their opposing views. This is the ideal introduction for anyone coming to the work of his hugely important thinker for the first time.

This study examines the links between science, philosophy, and military theory. The author uses two case studies to demonstrate the links between these disciplines. He presents an overview on the rise of Newtonian science, and he examines how the key frameworks and concepts of that science became interwoven into Western civilization to affect its philosophy with an emphasis on its interpretation by the German Romanticist philosopher Immanuel Kant. He then shows how Newtonian science and Kant's philosophy affected the military theory of Carl von Clausewitz. His second case study concerns the theory and philosophy of evolution developed by British philosopher Herbert Spencer and its influence on the military theory of J. F. C. Fuller. The author compares these two case studies to find commonalities between them that suggest a mechanism which explains how and why scientific theory and their philosophical interpretations eventually influence military theory. The author then uses this mechanism as a tool with which \"new\" sciences such as quantum mechanics, relativity, and complexity theory can be evaluated to see if and in what manner they will affect future military theories. The main concept of this mechanism is that science and philosophy, both consciously and unconsciously, provide frameworks for investigation and systems of knowledge for the military theorist. Finally, this study suggests that new definitions of the concepts of force, space, time, and knowledge will have an influence on future military theory. The shift from the Newtonian framework of cause and effect determinism to the new science concept of probabilities and trends-as well as the shift from the force of heavy mechanics to the new particle wave theories of force-will change man's concept of the battlefield, emphasizing the capability for rapid observation and action.
Critique of Pure Reason is a philosophical work written by Immanuel Kant, first published in 1781. It is considered to be one of the most important and influential works in the history of philosophy. The book is divided into two parts, the first of which deals with the nature of knowledge, while the second deals with the nature of reality.In the first part, Kant argues that all knowledge begins with experience, but that it is not limited to experience. He introduces the concept of a priori knowledge, which is knowledge that is independent of experience. Kant also argues that the mind plays an active role in shaping our experience of the world, and that there are certain categories of thought that are necessary for us to make sense of our experiences.In the second part, Kant argues that there is a distinction between appearances and reality. He argues that we can only know the world as it appears to us, and that we can never know the world as it really is. He also introduces the concept of the noumenon, which is the thing-in-itself that exists independently of our perception of it.Critique of Pure Reason is a complex and challenging work, but it is considered to be a cornerstone of modern philosophy. It has influenced many subsequent philosophers, and continues to be studied and debated to this day.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1890 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

I employ a favorite time-saving grocery store trick in this recipe, to help get this beautiful, flavorful soup on the table faster. Most grocery stores offer pre-made popcorn chicken or chicken tenders that are of good quality, and by tossing them with a simple honey/soy mixture, we can infuse them with flavor and crisp them up in the oven, before topping our bowls of steaming Khao Soi Gai (Thai Coconut Curry Noodle Soup with Chicken). This is optional, and you can follow my NOTE below for a fresh-cooked chicken breast option or leave the meat out entirely.
