哲學新媒體 哲學思辨的知識平臺

你曾想過,
認為「人如野狼」的霍布斯會如何看待馬克.祖克柏試圖建立的「元宇宙」嗎?
提出「洞穴寓言」的柏拉圖居然與賈伯斯有共同之處?
現代AI理解語言的難題,原來維根斯坦早已說明?

在與時間賽跑的商業世界中,大多數領導者關心如何快速做出決策、有效進行會議和推動創新,暫停一下並思考問題看起來相當違反直覺。但是如何讓決策有說服力及長遠的影響力,相當仰賴管理者內化反思的過程,這時候取經哲學就是一個非常有效的方法。

哲學回答了我們許多基本問題,包含:人的存在、身分、角色,以及我們選擇的生活方式等。當領導者理解且運用哲學思維,更有可能為企業的管理策略和願景提供意義,與此同時增進自我滿足感和幸福感。
本書歸納優秀商業人士的六大特質,包括智慧、領導力、洞見、願景、誠實、樂觀,深入探討商業人士職涯的經典難題:對成功與失敗的理解、工作中的自我懷疑、幽默與樂觀的必要性,以及優秀領導者的理想輪廓等。

聖地亞哥.伊尼格斯引用諸多哲學名家的理論與名言,為當今商業人士提供一條哲學祕徑,讓領導者能夠按圖索驥,在思考之路上找到答案。本書也讓古代先賢的哲學家與當代商業領袖對話,在理論與實際決策中,為領導者提供可用於個人和職業發展的具體建議。

優秀的商業人士有什麼特質?
◆智慧:「我只知道我一無所知。」{\textemdash}{\textemdash}蘇格拉底
當蘇格拉底聽取神諭並拜訪所謂的智者後,才理解到智慧是體認自身無知並勇於求知。而領導者也應該不斷吸收新知,不應滿足於現狀。

◆領導力:「謙遜即是真理。」{\textemdash}{\textemdash}亞維拉的德蘭
謙遜是承認自身局限,並引導自我改進,而在企業經營中,保持謙遜能讓企業家與商業人士以更客觀的角度觀看世界,尋求改進與創新的空間。

◆洞見:「能存活的不是最壯大的,而是適應能力最好的。」{\textemdash}{\textemdash}查爾斯.達爾文
懂得解讀持續變化的趨勢,同時預見個人行為,這種見樹又見林的能力是每個優秀商業人士都應具備的特質,透過察覺重要事物與關鍵細節,方能帶領企業走向成功。

◆願景:「人不能兩次踏入同一條河流。」{\textemdash}{\textemdash}赫拉克利特
即便再次踏入河流,腳下的水仍在流動,而那已非前一秒的河流了。在變動不居的環境中,領導者應該勾勒對未來的願景,以期適應變化。

◆誠實:「真相很少是純粹的,也從來不是簡單的。」{\textemdash}{\textemdash}奧斯卡.王爾德
誠實固然是美德,企業經營者對顧客、合作伙伴理應完全誠實,但對於競爭對手{\textellipsis}{\textellipsis}保密可能是更好的選擇。

◆樂觀:「上帝創造了所有可能世界中最美好的世界。」{\textemdash}{\textemdash}萊布尼茲
也許事事不盡如人意,但保持樂觀能夠引導我們看見事物的積極面,並從挫折中學習,以面對下次挑戰。

*好評分享
哲學常被認為無用,特別是在追求高效益的商業領域中。很多人不假思索認為,強調倫理或原則的「哲學」會使領導者僵化行事、阻礙企業發展,進而損及利益。然而,本書作者巧妙地汲取哲學理論,用以精闢指出,只要商業活動的本質仍是「人的活動」,就無法脫離對「人」,尤其是「社群中的人」的理解。因此,即使在最講求利益的場域,哲學的人文主義視角與態度依然至關重要。

本書並非系統性的哲學著作 ,而是為從事商業經濟活動的專業人士量身打造的哲普讀物,由多篇短文構成,隨時可看可停可跳,適合講求效率的現代人閱讀。作者巧妙地將哲學知識關聯到管理者關注的焦點,提供了許多引人深思的獨到見解。哲學專業者也能發現熟悉的哲學理論以嶄新的角度與經營管理發生連結,帶來啟發與樂趣。誠摯推薦本書給所有渴望在哲學中尋求實踐之道的人們。

Have you heard that language is violence and that science is sexist? Have you read that certain people shouldn{\textquoteright}t practice yoga or cook Chinese food? Or been told that being obese is healthy, that there is no such thing as biological sex, or that only white people can be racist? Are you confused by these ideas, and do you wonder how they have managed so quickly to challenge the very logic of Western society?

In this probing and intrepid volume, Helen Pluckrose and James Lindsay document the evolution of the dogma that informs these ideas, from its coarse origins in French postmodernism to its refinement within activist academic fields. Today this dogma is recognizable as much by its effects, such as cancel culture and social-media dogpiles, as by its tenets, which are all too often embraced as axiomatic in mainstream media: knowledge is a social construct; science and reason are tools of oppression; all human interactions are sites of oppressive power play; and language is dangerous. As Pluckrose and Lindsay warn, the unchecked proliferation of these anti-Enlightenment beliefs present a threat not only to liberal democracy but also to modernity itself.

While acknowledging the need to challenge the complacency of those who think a just society has been fully achieved, Pluckrose and Lindsay break down how this often-radical activist scholarship does far more harm than good, not least to those marginalized communities it claims to champion. They also detail its alarmingly inconsistent and illiberal ethics. Only through a proper understanding of the evolution of these ideas, they conclude, can those who value science, reason, and consistently liberal ethics successfully challenge this harmful and authoritarian orthodoxy{\textemdash}in the academy, in culture, and beyond.

Michel Eyquem de Montaigne (1533 - 1592) was one of the most influential writers of the French Renaissance, known for popularizing the essay as a literary genre. He became famous for his effortless ability to merge serious intellectual exercises with casual anecdotes and autobiography-and his massive volume Essais (translated literally as "Attempts" or "Trials") contains, to this day, some of the most widely influential essays ever written. Montaigne had a direct influence on writers all over the world, including Ren Descartes, Blaise Pascal, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Albert Hirschman, William Hazlitt, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Friedrich Nietzsche, Stefan Zweig, Eric Hoffer, Isaac Asimov, and possibly on the later works of William Shakespeare. Translated by Charles Cotton

"Out of the crooked timber of humanity, no straight thing was ever made."--Immanuel Kant Isaiah Berlin was one of the most important philosophers of the twentieth century--an activist of the intellect who marshaled vast erudition and eloquence in defense of the endangered values of individual liberty and moral and political plurality. In The Crooked Timber of Humanity he exposes the links between the ideas of the past and the social and political cataclysms of our own time: between the Platonic belief in absolute truth and the lure of authoritarianism; between the eighteenth-century reactionary ideologue Joseph de Maistre and twentieth-century Fascism; between the romanticism of Schiller and Byron and the militant--and sometimes genocidal--nationalism that convulses the modern world.
This new edition features a revised text that supplants all previous versions, a new foreword in which award-winning novelist John Banville discusses Berlin{\textquoteright}s life and ideas, particularly his defense of pluralism, and a substantial new appendix that provides rich context, including letters by Berlin and previously uncollected writings, most notably his virtuoso review of Bertrand Russell{\textquoteright}s A History of Western Philosophy.

The Confessions of Saint Augustine is considered one of the greatest Christian classics of all time. It is an extended poetic, passionate, intimate prayer that Augustine wrote as an autobiography sometime after his conversion, to confess his sins and proclaim God{\textquoteright}s goodness. Just as his first hearers were captivated by his powerful conversion story, so also have many millions been over the following sixteen centuries. His experience of God speaks to us across time with little need of transpositions.This acclaimed new translation by Sister Maria Boulding, O.S.B., masterfully captures his experience, and is written in an elegant and flowing style. Her beautiful contemporary translation of the ancient Confessions makes the classic work more accessible to modern readers. Her translation combines the linguistic accuracy demanded by 4th-century Latin with the poetic power aimed at by Augustine, not as discernable in previous translations.

From the $700 billion bailout of the banking industry to president Barack Obama{\textquoteright}s $787 billion stimulus package to the highly controversial passage of federal health-care reform, conservatives and concerned citizens alike have grown increasingly fearful of big government. Enter Nobel Prize-winning economist and political theorist F. A. Hayek, whose passionate warning against empowering states with greater economic control, The Road to Serfdom, became an overnight sensation last summer when it was endorsed by Glenn Beck. The book has since sold over 150,000 copies.

The latest entry in the University of Chicago Press{\textquoteright}s series of newly edited editions of Hayek{\textquoteright}s works, The Constitution of Liberty is, like Serfdom, just as relevant to our present moment. The book is considered Hayek{\textquoteright}s classic statement on the ideals of freedom and liberty, ideals that he believes have guided--and must continue to guide--the growth of Western civilization. Here Hayek defends the principles of a free society, casting a skeptical eye on the growth of the welfare state and examining the challenges to freedom posed by an ever expanding government--as well as its corrosive effect on the creation, preservation, and utilization of knowledge. In opposition to those who call for the state to play a greater role in society, Hayek puts forward a nuanced argument for prudence. Guided by this quality, he elegantly demonstrates that a free market system in a democratic polity--under the rule of law and with strong constitutional protections of individual rights--represents the best chance for the continuing existence of liberty.

Striking a balance between skepticism and hope, Hayek{\textquoteright}s profound insights are timelier and more welcome than ever before. This definitive edition of The Constitution of Liberty will give a new generation the opportunity to learn from his enduring wisdom.

The increasingly popular idea that cinematic fictions can {\textquoteright}do{\textquoteright} philosophy raises some difficult questions. Who is actually doing the philosophizing? Is it the philosophical commentator who reads general arguments or theories into the stories conveyed by a film? Could it be the film-maker, or a group of collaborating film-makers, who raise and try to answer philosophical questions with a film? Is there something about the experience of films that is especially suited to the stimulation of worthwhile philosophical reflections? In the first part of this book, Paisley Livingston surveys positions and arguments surrounding the cinema{\textquoteright}s philosophical value. He raises criticisms of bold theses in this area and defends a moderate view of film{\textquoteright}s possible contributions to philosophy.

In the second part of the book he defends an intentionalist approach that focuses on the film-makers{\textquoteright} philosophical background assumptions, sources, and aims. Livingston outlines intentionalist interpretative principles as well as an account of authorship in cinema. The third part of the book exemplifies this intentionalist approach with reference to the work of Ingmar Bergman. Livingston explores the connection between Bergman{\textquoteright}s work and the Swedish director{\textquoteright}s primary philosophical source-a treatise in philosophical psychology authored by the Finnish philosopher, Eino Kaila. Bergman proclaimed that reading this book was a tremendous philosophical experience for him and that he {\textquoteright}built on this ground{\textquoteright}. With reference to materials in the newly created Ingmar Bergman archive, Livingston shows how Bergman took up Kaila{\textquoteright}s topics in his cinematic explorations of motivated irrationality, inauthenticity, and the problem of self-knowledge.

First published in 1949, Gilbert Ryle{\textquoteright}s\ The Concept of Mind\ is one of the classics of twentieth-century philosophy. Described by Ryle as a {\textquoteright}sustained piece of analytical hatchet-work{\textquoteright} on Cartesian dualism,\ The Concept of Mind\ is a radical and controversial attempt to jettison once and for all what Ryle called {\textquoteright}the ghost in the machine{\textquoteright} Descartes{\textquoteright} argument that mind and body are two separate entities. This sixtieth anniversary edition includes a substantial commentary by Julia Tanney and is essential reading for new readers interested not only in the history of analytic philosophy but in its power to challenge major currents in philosophy of mind and language today.

Gilbert Ryle\ was born in England in 1900, one of ten children. In 1924 he was appointed to a lectureship at Christ Church College, Oxford where he was to remain for his entire academic career until his retirement in 1968. In 1945 he was elected to the Waynflete Chair of Metaphysical Philosophy. He was editor of the journal Mind from 1947 to 1971. He died on 6 October 1976 at Whitby in Yorkshire after a day{\textquoteright}s walking on the moors.

Elyn Saks is a success by any measure: she{\textquoteright}s an endowed professor at the prestigious University of Southern California Gould School of Law. She has managed to achieve this in spite of being diagnosed as schizophrenic and given a "grave" prognosis {\textendash} and suffering the effects of her illness throughout her life.Saks was only eight, and living an otherwise idyllic childhood in sunny 1960s Miami, when her first symptoms appeared in the form of obsessions and night terrors. But it was not until she reached Oxford University as a Marshall Scholar that her first full-blown episode, complete with voices in her head and terrifying suicidal fantasies, forced her into a psychiatric hospital.Saks would later attend Yale Law School where one night, during her first term, she had a breakdown that left her singing on the roof of the law school library at midnight. She was taken to the emergency room, force-fed antipsychotic medication, and tied hand-and-foot to the cold metal of a hospital bed. She spent the next five months in a psychiatric ward.So began Saks{\textquoteright}s long war with her own internal demons and the equally powerful forces of stigma. Today she is a chaired professor of law who researches and writes about the rights of the mentally ill. She is married to a wonderful man.In The Center Cannot Hold, Elyn Saks discusses frankly and movingly the paranoia, the inability to tell imaginary fears from real ones, and the voices in her head insisting she do terrible things, as well as the many obstacles she overcame to become the woman she is today. It is destined to become a classic in the genre.

"One of the most original thinkers and system builders of any time, and certainly the greatest philosopher the United States has ever seen."-Joseph Brent, author of Charles Sanders Peirce: A Life. "Peirce{\textquoteright}s achievements would take a short book to describe adequately. In philosophy, he founded the most distinctively American school of thought-Pragmatism. As the founder of pragmatism, he was the intellectual hero of both John Dewey and William James. He also created single-handedly the large discipline called Semeiotic-the study of the working of signs-a discipline which engages scholars all over the world.

The opening chapters, "The Fixation of Belief" and "How to Make Our Ideas Clear," mark the beginning of pragmatism. The second presents Peirce{\textquoteright}s innovative and influential essays on scientific metaphysics. Morris Raphael Cohen is the author of Law and the Social Order and Reason and Nature.

This edition replaces the earlier translation by Walter Lowrie that appeared under the title The Concept of Dread. Along with The Sickness unto Death, the work reflects from a psychological point of view Soren Kierkegaard{\textquoteright}s longstanding concern with the Socratic maxim, "Know yourself." His ontological view of the self as a synthesis of body, soul, and spirit has influenced philosophers such as Heidegger and Sartre, theologians such as Jaspers and Tillich, and psychologists such as Rollo May. In The Concept of Anxiety, Kierkegaard describes the nature and forms of anxiety, placing the domain of anxiety within the mental-emotional states of human existence that precede the qualitative leap of faith to the spiritual state of Christianity. It is through anxiety that the self becomes aware of its dialectical relation between the finite and the infinite, the temporal and the eternal.

The Cartesian Meditations translation is based primarily on the printed text, edited by Professor S. Strasser and published in the first volume of Husserliana: Cartesianische Meditationen und Pariser Vortrage, ISBN 90-247-0214-3. Most of Husserl{\textquoteright}s emendations, as given in the Appendix to that volume, have been treated as if they were part of the text. The others have been translated in footnotes. Secondary consideration has been given to a typescript (cited as Typescript C) on which Husserl wrote in 1933: Cartes. Meditationen / Originaltext 1929 / E. Husserl / fur Dorion Cairns. Its use of emphasis and quotation marks conforms more closely to Husserl s practice, as exemplified in works published during his lifetime. In this respect the translation usually follows Typescript C. Moreover, some of the variant readings n this typescript are preferable and have been used as the basis for the translation. Where that is the case, the published text is given or translated in a foornote. The published text and Typescript C have been compared with the French translation by Gabrielle Pfeiffer and Emmanuel Levinas (Paris, Armand Collin, 1931). The use of emphasis and quotation marks in the French translation corresponds more closely to that in Typescript C than to that in the published text. Often, where the wording of the published text and that of Typescript C differ, the French translation indicates that it was based on a text that corresponded more closely to one or the other usually to Typescript C. In such cases the French translation has been quoted or cited in a foornote.

This selection from Max Weber{\textquoteright}s writings presents his variegated work from one central focus, the relationship between charisma on the one hand, and the process of institution building in the major fields of the social order such as politics, law, economy, and culture and religion on the other. That the concept of charisma is crucially important for understanding the processes of institution building is implicit in Weber{\textquoteright}s own writings, and the explication of this relationship is perhaps the most important challenge which Weber{\textquoteright}s work poses for modern sociology.

Max Weber on Charisma and Institution Building\ is a volume in "The Heritage of Sociology," a series edited by Morris Janowitz. Other volumes deal with the writings of George Herbert Mead, William F.
