FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - - SIGNED BY AUTHOR -- NEW - Personal view by this conservative British philosopher. - "Scruton a don at London University and a British TV personality sets out to do philosophy rather than talk about it. He succeeds to a large extent in making the subject accessible engaging the reader in philosophic thinking. Scruton inquires into truth time God freedom morality and even sex carefully explaining who he believes is right and who is wrong in their opinions on the subjects. For instance he warns against Nietzsche and Michel Foucault and champions everyone who believes in persons with souls and free intentions and who believes in the sacred and enchantment in the world. In addition to such authoritarian judgments Scruton sometimes gets caught up in fighting internecine battles especially against the view that genuine knowledge can only be scientific; then the clarity of his writing suffers. For example "since the origin of both self and not-self is the act of self-positing nothing on either side of the barrier is anything in the last analysis but self." When he philosophizes more freely he puts the reader in a better mood: "This idea has recurred so often as to suggest that there is truth in it or a permanent need to believe so." In the final analysis Scruton accomplishes his aim of using philosophy as therapy for our modern confusions although mental health for him lies in more conservative thinking." - Publishers Weekly Copyright 1998 Reed Business Information Inc. -- with a bonus offer--; HPP4-000001; Plato Platonic Dialogue Mock Intelligent Person's Guide to Philosophy Scruton Roger PHILOSOPHY CONSERVATISM . 1998. 0713992263 .
