Title: Mill's On Liberty Author: John Stuart Mill Narrator: Ray Childs Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 10 mins Language: English Release date: 03-08-16 Publisher: Agora, New Internet Technologies Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 10 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Philosophy Publisher's Summary: Mill's thinking about freedom in civic and social life examines fundamental principles shared among conservative, liberal, and radical politicians. The life of true philosophy stands outside the political battles that are rampant in society and seeks the political wisdom that is necessary for a good life in any age. Mill's philosophical presentation and analysis of those principles stand alongside the reflections of Plato, Aristotle, Marcus Aurelius, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau. When the officials of any government seek to change the laws that regulate individual liberty or when rhetoricians seek to change public opinion about what individuals should or should not be allowed to say or do, Mill's On Liberty serves as an effective antidote to the poisons of excessive intrusion into the lives of individuals. The present edition is specifically designed to employ the dual nature of rhetoric - oral and written language - and to utilize electronic technology to open Mill's text to contemporary listeners. © Agora Publications

Title: Ethics Author: Benedict de Spinoza Narrator: Antony Ferguson Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 7 mins Language: English Release date: 09-30-11 Publisher: Tantor Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 58 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Philosophy Publisher's Summary: Benedict de Spinoza's Ethics, first published in 1677, constitutes a major systematic critique of the traditional and religious foundations of philosophical thought. In it, Spinoza follows a logical step-by-step format consisting of definitions, axioms, propositions, proofs, and corollaries to create a comprehensive inquiry into the truth about God, nature, and humans' place within the universe. From these broad metaphysical themes, Spinoza derives what he considered to be the highest principles of religion and society and lays out an ethical system in which reason is the supreme value. A seminal contribution to 17th-century rationalism, Spinoza's Ethics refutes the dualism of René Descartes and provides a bridge between religion and modern-day psychology. This edition is the translation by R. H. M. Elwes.

He identifies the original definition of "existentialism", which tends to be obscured by misappropriation, and highlights how the philosophy is still relevant in our world today.

Title: The Meditations Author: Marcus Aurelius Narrator: Wanda McCaddon Format: Unabridged Length: 4 hrs and 23 mins Language: English Release date: 01-26-10 Publisher: Tantor Audio Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 27 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Philosophy Publisher's Summary: "Live each day as if it were your last." Written in Greek by the only Roman emperor who was also a philosopher, without any intention of publication, Marcus Aurelius's Meditations offers a remarkable series of challenging spiritual reflections and exercises developed as the emperor struggled to understand himself and make sense of the universe. Ranging from doubt and despair to conviction and exaltation, they cover such diverse topics as the nature of moral virtue, human rationality, divine providence, and Marcus's own emotions. But while The Meditations was composed to provide personal consolation and encouragement, in developing his beliefs Marcus Aurelius also created one of the greatest of all works of philosophy: a timeless collection of extended meditations and short aphorisms that has been consulted and admired by statesmen, thinkers, and readers throughout the centuries.

Does giving up God mean giving up morality, or can we finally live a peaceful and fulfilling life as atheists by following science and reason instead? Anthropologist Christopher Hallpike has spent a lifetime's research on the morality and religion of different cultures around the world and shows that trying to base a moral life on atheism and science actually has some very nasty surprises in store for us.

Spirit Author: David Christopher Lane Narrator: Jim D. Johnston Format: Unabridged Length: 1 hr and 17 mins Language: English Release date: 02-24-16 Publisher: MSAC Philosophy Group Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 11 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Philosophy Publisher's Summary: What is matter anyways? - From organisms to cells to proteins to molecules to atoms to electrons to light? The most famous equation in modern physics is Einstein's E=MC2, which, if we pause for a second, is as mysterious as anything written in our ancient religious scriptures and measurably more radical. My point is that the resistance we have to reductionists who say we are "just matter" is because we tend to think of matter as flat. It is, of course, anything but. Thus maybe the reason we opt for dualism or the idea that something must be "beyond" matter is because we haven't come to grips to the amazing plasticity and mystery inherent in matter itself. In other words, we are using an extremely outdated and misleading definition of matter and, in so doing, losing sight of the wonderfulness of what physics and neuroscience is saying. We are not lessened because we are just matter, just as we wouldn't be lessened in Sach Khand if we were made of just "light".

Title: Dao De Jing Author: Laozi Narrator: Ray Childs Format: Unabridged Length: 1 hr and 27 mins Language: English Release date: 03-08-16 Publisher: Agora, New Internet Technologies Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 7 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Philosophy Publisher's Summary: The Dao De Jing exists on the border between poetry and philosophy, embracing both mythos and logos. Its poetic form can stand alone, but it is enriched when its timeless ideas are analyzed and explained through careful scholarship. For example: He who knows others is knowledgeable. He who knows himself is wise. These words resemble Socrates' account of his own quest in Plato's Apology. Ancient philosophy, both in China and in Greece, places self-knowledge at the center of the search for wisdom. Contemporary philosophers are often misled about this way of thinking, because the self has been detached from external things and separated from nature and society. The wisdom of China and of Europe unites human existence and nature. © Agora Publications

Title: Status Anxiety Author: Alain de Botton Narrator: Nicholas Bell Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 35 mins Language: English Release date: 08-17-12 Publisher: Bolinda Publishing Pty Ltd Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 14 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Philosophy Publisher's Summary: Do you worry about how well you're doing? Are you envious of your friends' success? Are you suffering from status anxiety? We all worry about what others think of us. We all long to succeed and fear failure. We all suffer - to a greater or lesser degree, usually privately and with embarrassment - from status anxiety. For the first time, Alain de Botton gives a name to his universal condition and sets out to investigate both its origins and possible solutions. He looks at history, philosophy, economics, art, and politics - and reveals the many ingenious ways that great minds have overcome their worries. The result is a book that is not only entertaining and thought-provoking - but genuinely wise and helpful as well. Critic Reviews: "De Botton is in tune with the times. He is artful in defining the contemporary Western condition, and through careful deliberation places his concepts in everyday, historical, and cultural contexts. And he does it with wit: his mock tabloid headline for Oedipus the King is: "Sex with Mum was Blinding". He does not deserve the frequent criticism of his fragmentary style (which veritably adds to the pleasure), and of watering down philosophy. If philosophy is to be revived as a pertinent inquiry into the nature of being, which is what it is, then why shouldn't the masses partake in it?" ( Sydney Morning Herald)

In Socrates: A Man for Our Times, Johnson draws from little-known resources to construct a fascinating account of one of historys greatest thinkers. Socrates transcended class limitations in Athens during the fifth century B.C. to develop ideas that still shape the way we think about the human body and soul, including the workings of the human mind.

Title: Epicurus Subtitle: The Principal Doctrines Author: Epicurus Narrator: Josh Verbae Format: Unabridged Length: 15 mins Language: English Release date: 02-12-15 Publisher: Interactive Media Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 10 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Philosophy Publisher's Summary: For Epicurus, the purpose of philosophy was to attain a happy, tranquil life, characterized by peace and freedom from fear, the absence of pain, and living a self-sufficient life surrounded by friends. He taught that pleasure and pain are the measures of what is good and evil; death is the end of both body and soul and should therefore not be feared; the gods neither reward nor punish humans; the universe is infinite and eternal; and events in the world are ultimately based on the motions and interactions of atoms. Although much of Epicurus' written work has been lost, his surviving principal doctrines form a complete foundation of his teaching. This audiobook adaptation features all 40 principles.

Title: Man for Himself Subtitle: An Inquiry into the Psychology of Ethics Author: Erich Fromm Narrator: Phil Holland Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 33 mins Language: English Release date: 10-31-13 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 27 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Philosophy Publisher's Summary: In Man for Himself, Erich Fromm examines the confusion of modern women and men who, because they lack faith in any principle by which life ought to be guided, become the helpless prey forces both within and without. From the broad, interdisciplinary perspective that marks Fromm's distinguished oeuvre, he shows that psychology cannot divorce itself from the problems of philosophy and ethics, and that human nature cannot be understood without understanding the values and moral conflicts that confront us all. He shows that an ethical system can be based on human nature rather than on revelations or traditions. As Fromm asserts, "If man is to have confidence in values, he must know himself and the capacity of his nature for goodness and productiveness."

Title: The Socratic Quest Subtitle: Waking Up to the Cerebral Mirage Author: Andrea Diem-Lane Narrator: Carol Purdom Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs and 47 mins Language: English Release date: 10-03-16 Publisher: MSAC Philosophy Group Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Philosophy Publisher's Summary: Too often students today think that Plato's dialogues concerning Socrates have no relevance to the present issues confronting humankind. It is mistakenly believed that Socrates' quest is dated and that we as species have outgrown such philosophical speculations. However, this is not the case, since the Socratic search for knowledge is a perennial one and we can learn much by closely reading what these early Greek thinkers pondered during their time. In this book, we have included excerpts from the Socratic dialogues (as penned by his most famous student, Plato) and Professor Andrea Diem-Lane's brilliant treatise on the "Cerebral Mirage" which brings Plato and Socrates up to date by showing how the latest findings in quantum theory and neuroscience substantiate much of early Greek skepticism, particularly concerning how easily we can be deceived by our various forms of certainty.

Dennett Narrator: Robert Blumenfeld Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 20 mins Language: English Release date: 10-08-13 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 78 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Philosophy Publisher's Summary: Can there be freedom and free will in a deterministic world? Renowned philosopher Daniel Dennett emphatically answers "yes!" Using an array of provocative formulations, Dennett sets out to show how we alone among the animals have evolved minds that give us free will and morality. Weaving a richly detailed narrative, Dennett explains in a series of strikingly original arguments - drawing upon evolutionary biology, cognitive neuroscience, economics, and philosophy - that far from being an enemy of traditional explorations of freedom, morality, and meaning, the evolutionary perspective can be an indispensable ally. In Freedom Evolves, Dennett seeks to place ethics on the foundation it deserves: a realistic, naturalistic, potentially unified vision of our place in nature.

Title: Nietzsche's The Birth of Tragedy Author: Friedrich Nietzsche Narrator: Ray Childs Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs and 14 mins Language: English Release date: 03-08-16 Publisher: Agora, New Internet Technologies Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 12 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Philosophy Publisher's Summary: In this, his first book, Nietzsche developed a way of thinking about the arts that unites the Greek gods Apollo and Dionysus as the central symbol of human existence. Although tragedy serves as the focus of this work, music, visual art, dance, and the other arts can also be viewed using Nietzsche's analysis and integration of the Apollonian and the Dionysian. The Birth of Tragedy stands alongside Aristotle's Poetics as an essential work for all who seek to understand poetry and its relationship to human life. © Agora Publications

Webster Format: Unabridged Length: 1 hr and 2 mins Language: English Release date: 10-25-16 Publisher: Atheist Republic Publications Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 7 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Philosophy Publisher's Summary: This book aims to give logically consistent reasoning for the dismissal of the idea of intelligent design through philosophical discourse based on given evidence of how our universe works. In these minutes, I will address the logical fallacies I see in any intelligent design model that poses the notion of a creator god who created the universe with specific intent and purpose. It is my hope that I can offer many pieces of evidence that show such an idea of an intelligent designer is not only logically inconsistent but also absurd. To do this, I will focus on three main points of contention: intelligence, design, and purpose. By taking an in-depth look at those ideas, I hope to show that intelligent design theories only raise more questions than answers.

With great ingenuity and penetration, the author throws much light on the complex problems of human behavior, and clearly demonstrates that the hitherto considered impassable gap between normal and abnormal mental states is more apparent than real. This translation is made of the fourth German edition, and while the original text was strictly followed, linguistic difficulties often made it necessary to modify or substitute some of the author's cases by examples comprehensible to the English speaking reader.

Title: The Hunger Games and Philosophy Subtitle: A Critique of Pure Treason Author: George A. Dunn, Nicolas Michaud Narrator: Vanessa Hart Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 50 mins Language: English Release date: 08-22-12 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 27 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Philosophy Publisher's Summary: A philosophical exploration of Suzanne Collins's New York Times best-selling series, just in time for the release of The Hunger Games movie. Katniss Everdeen is "the girl who was on fire," but she is also the girl who made us think, dream, question authority, and rebel. The post-apocalyptic world of Panem's twelve districts is a divided society on the brink of war and struggling to survive, while the Capitol lives in the lap of luxury and pure contentment. At every turn in the Hunger Games trilogy, Katniss, Peeta, Gale, and their many allies wrestle with harrowing choices and ethical dilemmas that push them to the brink. Is it okay for Katniss to break the law to ensure her family's survival? Do ordinary moral rules apply in the Arena? Can the world of The Hunger Games shine a light into the dark corners of our world? Why do we often enjoy watching others suffer? How can we distinguish between what's Real and Not Real? This book draws on some of history's most engaging philosophical thinkers to take you deeper into the story and its themes, such as sacrifice, altruism, moral choice, and gender. An essential companion for Hunger Games fans, this book will take you deeper into the dystopic world of Panem and into the minds and motivations of those who occupy it.

Sa réaction contre le scientisme, où l'existence de l'esprit et de la liberté était remise en cause, l'amena à réfléchir sur le concept de temps. L'essai sur les données immédiates de la conscience démontre, par une introspection intuitive, la reprise en possession de notre vie intérieure, et que la continuité du passé dans le présent et du présent dans le futur constitue "une création continue d'imprévisible nouveauté" agissant comme révélateur de la réalité et de la liberté de l'esprit. Outre la découverte par l'oralité des sept extraits de textes de Bergson qui permet une authentique proximité avec la pensée de ce grand philosophe, cet enregistrement présente (par la prestation de Jean Vilar le 18 mai 1971), le dernier témoignage historique de cet homme de théâtre, qui a marqué définitivement le XXe siècle. ©1889-1966 Frémeaux & Associés / DP (P)1971 Frémeaux & Associés / DP Revues par les critiques: À propos de ce titre Recommandé par Le Magazine Littéraire, recommandé par Notes Bibliographiques.

Title: Nothing: A Very Short Introduction Author: Frank Close Narrator: Ray Chase Format: Unabridged Length: 4 hrs and 53 mins Language: English Release date: 12-03-13 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 17 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Philosophy Publisher's Summary: This short, smart audiobook tells you everything you need to know about "nothing." What remains when you take all the matter away? Can empty space - "nothing" - exist? To answer these questions, eminent scientist Frank Close takes us on a lively and accessible journey that ranges from ancient ideas and cultural superstitions to the frontiers of current research, illuminating the story of how scientists have explored the void and the rich discoveries they have made there. Listeners will find an enlightening history of the vacuum: how the efforts to make a better vacuum led to the discovery of the electron; the ideas of Newton, Mach, and Einstein on the nature of space and time; the mysterious aether and how Einstein did away with it; and the latest ideas that the vacuum is filled with the Higgs field. The story ranges from the absolute zero of temperature and the seething vacuum of virtual particles and anti-particles that fills space, to the extreme heat and energy of the early universe.

Title: Friedrich Nietzsche Subtitle: The Giants of Philosophy Author: Richard Schacht Narrator: Charlton Heston Format: Unabridged Length: 2 hrs and 14 mins Language: English Release date: 06-26-06 Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc. Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 83 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Philosophy Publisher's Summary: The basic character of life in this world is to exhibit a primal tendency he calls "will to power". He glorifies those who are strong enough to face this reality: for they alone can live joyfully, without God and without any hope of ultimate salvation. The "overman" is his new ideal, the symbol of creativity incarnate. Man is fundamentally only an animal that has developed in an unusual way. Yet a "higher humanity" can emerge if the most talented, creative, and strongest individuals flourish and prevail, rising above the life of the "common herd" that typifies mankind. Nietzsche rejects democratic ideals, believing that they ignore human differences and hinder the exceptionally talented. Conflict, mastery, and creativity are essential to life and its development. The "will to power" brings about new forms of competition and superiority, as artists and other creative types pave the way for the "enhancement" of human life. The Giants of Philosophy is a series of dramatic presentations, in understandable language, of the concerns, questions, interests, and overall world view of history's greatest philosophers. Special emphasis on clear and relevant explanations gives you a new arsenal of insights toward living a better life.

Écoutez ce livre audio dans son intégralité gratuitement sur https://hotaudiobook.com Titre: Descartes - Spinoza - Leibniz Sous-titre: L'œuvre philosophique expliquée Auteur: Luc Ferry Narrateur: Luc Ferry Format: Original Recording Durée: 4 hrs and 18 mins Langue: Français Date de publication: 04-09-13 Éditeur: Frémeaux & Associés Evaluation: 4.5 sur 5 sur 5 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Philosophy Résumé de l'éditeur: René Descartes, philosophe français par excellence, ouvre l'ère de la modernité. Sa volonté est de s'extraire des préjugés et des certitudes non prouvées, de passer l'intégralité du monde au crible du doute pour pouvoir penser par soi-même. Fondateur de la philosophie du sujet, il base tout l'édifice de la science et de la connaissance sur la réflexion humaine, le fameux cogito. La postérité de ce révolutionnaire d'avant-garde, étendue à tant de domaines, depuis la politique jusqu'à l'esthétique, se constate également par l'importance de ses disciples philosophiques. Leibniz et Spinoza, bien que très infidèles, sont deux grands cartésiens. Les premiers, ils transforment la philosophie en système à partir d'un seul principe, la théodicée, explication de l'existence du mal malgré la toute-puissance et la bonté de Dieu. L'intervenant " , comme tous les philosophes est d'abord un professeur de philosophie. En effet, philosopher au XXIe siècle n'a de sens qu'en prenant en compte l'histoire de cette discipline qui transforme tous les penseurs en héritiers. Luc Ferry propose pour la première fois des cours dans une langue simple, permettant en 3 à 4 heures d'accéder à une approche des idées d'un grand philosophe et les clés essentielles pour pouvoir ensuite aborder son oeuvre."

Title: The Singularity of Being Subtitle: Lacan and the Immortal Within Author: Mari Ruti Narrator: Suzanne Toren Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 51 mins Language: English Release date: 09-11-12 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 32 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Philosophy Publisher's Summary: The Singularity of Being presents a Lacanian vision of what makes each of us an inimitable and irreplaceable creature. It argues that, unlike the "subject" (who comes into existence as a result of symbolic prohibition) or the "person" (who is aligned with the narcissistic conceits of the imaginary), the singular self emerges in response to a galvanizing directive arising from the real. This directive carries the force of an obligation that cannot be resisted and that summons the individual to a "character" beyond his or her social investments. Consequently, singularity expresses something about the individual's non-negotiable distinctiveness, eccentricity, or idiosyncrasy at the same time it prevents both symbolic and imaginary closure. It opens to layers of rebelliousness, indicating that there are components of human life exceeding the realm of normative sociality. Written with an unusual blend of rigor and clarity, The Singularity of Being combines incisive readings of Lacan with the best insights of recent Lacanian theory to reach beyond the dogmas of the field. Moving from what, thanks in part to Slavoj Zizek, has come to be known as the "ethics of the act" to a nuanced interpretation of Lacan's "ethics of sublimation", the book offers a sweeping overview of Lacan's thought while making an original contribution to contemporary theory and ethics. Aimed at specialists and nonspecialists alike, the book manages to educate at the same time as it intervenes in current debates about subjectivity, agency, resistance, creativity, the self-other relationship, and effective political and ethical action. By focusing on the Lacanian real, Ruti honors the uniqueness of subjective experience without losing sight of the social and intersubjective components of human life.

Title: Philosophy of Fine Art by Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel Subtitle: The Complete Work Plus an Overview, Chapter by Chapter Summary and Author Biography! Author: Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, Israel Bouseman Narrator: Diana Gardiner Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 10 mins Language: English Release date: 05-16-17 Publisher: AudioLearn Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 6 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Philosophy Publisher's Summary: Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel's Aesthetics, or Philosophy of Fine Art, is part of a rich German aesthetic tradition that stretches from the middle of the 18th century into the modern era. Hegel wrote this work early in the German exploration of aesthetics, and it served as a foundation piece for the philosophies of all who followed him. Hegel, with Aesthetics and other works, had a profound impact on the philosophies of Nietzsche, Heidegger, and Adorno. In this work, he explores the nature of beauty and the historical development of art. Hegel addresses each style of art in turn, considering architecture, sculpture, painting, music, and poetry in detail. He also offers distinct and in-depth analyses of Egyptian art, Greek sculpture, and both ancient and modern tragedy. Philosophy of Fine Art is regarded as one of the greatest aesthetic theories produced since Aristotle's Poetics. The AudioLearn version of Hegel's Philosophy of Fine Art is preceded by a chapter-by-chapter summary that details the themes and perspectives addressed in the main work. The summary also provides an exploration of the life of the author and the background of the piece. Also included are an overview, a synopsis, and an analysis of the work. The summary is concluded by an examination of the historical context and social impact of the piece and a brief look at the criticisms associated with it. Philosophy of Fine Art is a key work of aesthetic philosophy and an essential text for students of philosophy and art as well as for anyone interested in the nature of aesthetics.

Title: An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding Author: David Hume Narrator: Hugh Ross Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 3 mins Language: English Release date: 07-21-15 Publisher: Naxos AudioBooks Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 30 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Philosophy Publisher's Summary: As intriguing today as when it was first published, Hume's An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding is a fascinating exploration into the nature of human knowledge. Using billiard balls, candles, and other colorful examples, Hume conveys the core of his empiricism - that true knowledge can be gained only through sensory experience. No other philosopher has been at the forefront of the mind than David Hume: physics, psychology, neuroscience - connections to Hume are everywhere. Here is the book that Immanuel Kant confessed to have awoken him from his "dogmatic slumber".

Title: Quine on the Analytic-Synthetic Distinction Author: J.-M. Kuczynski Narrator: A. Zens Format: Unabridged Length: 37 mins Language: English Release date: 09-21-16 Publisher: PHILOSOPHYPEDIA Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 21 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Philosophy Publisher's Summary: W.V.O. tried to prove that no statement is necessarily true. In this work, Quine's argument is stated, analyzed, and shown to be a broken argument for a false conclusion. It is shown that necessary truths are as important as empirical truths to the empirical sciences, the reason being that, without necessary truths, there is no way to organize or interpret data. It comes to light that, in addition to being false, every form of extreme empiricism (e.g. Dewey's pragmatism, Wittgenstein's verificationism, Comte's positivism) is so incoherent that it cannot be clearly stated without thereby being refuted.
