His background in law and keen analytical skills informed his exploration of the power of thought and its impact on human experience. I highly recommend 'The Edinburgh Lectures on Mental Science' and 'The Dore Lectures on Mental Science' to readers interested in the intersection of philosophy, psychology, and metaphysics.

 Reading in the Brain The New Science of How We Read【電子書籍】[ Stanislas Dehaene ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜strong＞A renowned cognitive neuroscientist?s fascinating and highly informative account of how the brain acquires reading＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞How can a few black marks on a white page evoke an entire universe of sounds and meanings? In this riveting investigation, Stanislas Dehaene provides an accessible account of the brain circuitry of reading and explores what he calls the ?reading paradox?: Our cortex is the product of millions of years of evolution in a world without writing, so how did it adapt to recognize words? ＜em＞Reading in the Brain＜/em＞ describes pioneering research on how we process language, revealing the hidden logic of spelling and the existence of powerful unconscious mechanisms for decoding words of any size, case, or font.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Dehaene?s research will fascinate not only readers interested in science and culture, but also educators concerned with debates on how we learn to read, and who wrestle with pathologies such as dyslexia. Like Steven Pinker, Dehaene argues that the mind is not a blank slate: Writing systems across all cultures rely on the same brain circuits, and reading is only possible insofar as it fits within the limits of a primate brain. Setting cutting-edge science in the context of cultural debate, ＜em＞Reading in the Brain＜/em＞ is an unparalleled guide to a uniquely human ability.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 1,867円 |

 Evidence and Evolution The Logic Behind the Science【電子書籍】[ Elliott Sober ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞How should the concept of evidence be understood? And how does the concept of evidence apply to the controversy about creationism as well as to work in evolutionary biology about natural selection and common ancestry? In this rich and wide-ranging book, Elliott Sober investigates general questions about probability and evidence and shows how the answers he develops to those questions apply to the specifics of evolutionary biology. Drawing on a set of fascinating examples, he analyzes whether claims about intelligent design are untestable; whether they are discredited by the fact that many adaptations are imperfect; how evidence bears on whether present species trace back to common ancestors; how hypotheses about natural selection can be tested, and many other issues. His book will interest all readers who want to understand philosophical questions about evidence and evolution, as they arise both in Darwin's work and in contemporary biological research.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 5,573円 |

Max M?ller presents a profound exploration of linguistic philosophy and the evolution of language, weaving an intricate narrative that spans across various languages and cultures. M?ller's literary style is characterized by clarity and precision, making complex ideas accessible to both scholars and lay readers. The lectures, originally delivered in the 19th century, delve into the interrelationship between language, thought, and culture, situating them within the broader context of historical linguistics and philology. His insights highlight the dynamic nature of language as a living entity shaped by human experience and societal evolution. Friedrich Max M?ller was a pioneering philologist and orientalist who devoted his life to the study of languages, particularly Sanskrit.

 On the Method of Zadig Essay #1 from "Science and Hebrew Tradition"【電子書籍】[ Thomas Henry Huxley ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞In "On the Method of Zadig," Thomas Henry Huxley presents a compelling exploration of scientific inquiry and philosophical reflection, using Voltaire's character Zadig as a lens to critique and examine the processes of reasoning and understanding within the natural sciences. Through a blend of accessible prose and incisive commentary, Huxley advocates for a rational, evidence-based approach to knowledge, resisting dogmas and superstitions that hinder true understanding. His literary style is marked by clarity and wit, situating the book within the broader context of 19th-century debates over science, religion, and human understanding, thus making it a pivotal text in the discourse surrounding the scientific method. Huxley, a noted biologist and a prominent advocate of Darwinian evolution, wrote this work during a period when the conflict between science and traditional belief systems was intensifying. His background in biology, coupled with his experiences in the Scientific Society, fueled his desire to promote a rational approach to knowledge'??one rooted in observation and experimentation. Huxley'??s insights reflect his own struggles against societal and intellectual resistance, reinforcing his role as 'Darwin's Bulldog' in a time of significant scientific upheaval. For readers seeking to deepen their understanding of the philosophical underpinnings of science, "On the Method of Zadig" is an essential read. Huxley'??s astute observations invite readers to rethink the methodologies by which we acquire knowledge, challenging them to adopt a more critical and inquisitive stance towards the world around them. This book resonates with anyone interested in the intersection of science, philosophy, and the intellectual history of modern thought.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 300円 |

 From Medicine Man to Doctor The Story of the Science of Healing【電子書籍】[ Howard W. Haggard ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Compelling and informative, this overview of medical history traces modern-day medical practices from their roots in the ancient civilizations of Egypt, Greece, and Rome. Physician Howard W. Haggard ー a popular lecturer, prolific author, and Yale professor ー specialized in explaining health-related issues to ordinary people.

A profile of the progress of surgery explores the violent opposition to early attempts at studying anatomy through human dissection, and the gradual adoption of antiseptic principles. Quarantine, vaccination, and a heightened public awareness are cited among the record of attempts to conquer plague and pestilence.Final chapters investigate faith healing through the ages and occult practices such as exorcism and the trade in holy relics; herb doctors and medieval apothecaries; the recognition of bacteria as a cause of infectious disease; and the eventual trend away from treatment and toward prevention.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 2,213円 |
 Betrayal of Science and Reason How Anti-Environmental Rhetoric Threatens Our Future【電子書籍】[ Paul R. Ehrlich ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Despite widespread public support for environmental protection, a backlash against environmental policies is developing. Fueled by outright distortions of fact and disregard for the methodology of science, this backlash appears as an outpouring of seemingly authoritative opinions by so-called experts in books, articles, and appearances on television and radio that greatly distort what is or is not known by environmental scientists. Through relentless repetition, the flood of anti-environmental sentiment has acquired an unfortunate aura of credibility, and is now threatening to undermine thirty years of progress in defining, understanding, and seeking solutions to global environmental problems.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In this hard-hitting and timely book, world-renowned scientists and writers Paul R. Ehrlich and Anne H. Ehrlich speak out against what they call the "brownlash." Brownlash rhetoric, created by public relations spokespersons and a few dissident scientists, is a deliberate misstatement of scientific findings designed to support an anti-environmental world view and political agenda. As such, it is deeply disturbing to environmental scientists across the country. The agenda of brownlash proponents is rarely revealed, and the confusion and distraction its rhetoric creates among policymakers and the public prolong an already difficult search for realistic and equitable solutions to global environmental problems.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In ＜em＞Betrayal of Science and Reason＜/em＞, the Ehrlichs explain clearly and with scientific objectivity the empirical findings behind environmental issues including population growth, desertification, food production, global warming, ozone depletion, acid rain, and biodiversity loss. They systematically debunk revisionist "truths" such as:＜/p＞ ＜ul＞ ＜li＞population growth does not cause environmental damage, and may even be beneficial＜/li＞ ＜li＞humanity is on the verge of abolishing hunger; food scarcity is a local or regional problem and is not indicative of overpopulation＜/li＞ ＜li＞there is no extinction crisis＜/li＞ ＜li＞natural resources are superabundant, if not infinite＜/li＞ ＜li＞global warming and acid rain are not serious threats to humanity＜/li＞ ＜li＞stratospheric ozone depletion is a hoax＜/li＞ ＜li＞risks posed by toxic substances are vastly exaggerated＜/li＞ ＜/ul＞ ＜p＞The Ehrlichs counter the erroneous information and misrepresentation put forth by the brownlash, presenting accurate scientific information about current environmental threats that can be used to evaluate critically and respond to the commentary of the brownlash. They include important background material on how science works and provide extensive references to pertinent scientific literature. In addition, they discuss how scientists can speak out on matters of societal urgency yet retain scientific integrity and the support of the scientific community.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Betrayal of Science and Reason＜/em＞ is an eye-opening look at current environmental problems and the fundamental importance of the scientific process in solving them. It presents unique insight into the sources and implications of anti-environmental rhetoric, and provides readers with a valuable means of understanding and refuting the feel-good fables that constitute the brownlash.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 5,437円 |

 Rainy Brain, Sunny Brain The New Science of Optimism and Pessimism【電子書籍】[ Elaine Fox ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Are you optimistic or pessimistic? Glass half-full or half-empty? Do you look on the bright side or turn towards the dark? These are easy questions for most of us to answer, because our personality types are hard-wired into our brains. As pioneering psychologist and neuroscientist Elaine Fox has discovered, our outlook on life reflects our primal inclination to seek pleasure or avoid dangerーinclinations that, in many people, are healthily balanced. But when our 'fear brain' or 'pleasure brain' is too strong, the results can be disastrous, as those of us suffering from debilitating shyness, addiction, depression, or anxiety know all too well.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Luckily, anyone suffering from these afflictions has reason to hope. Stunning breakthroughs in neuroscience show that our brains are more malleable than we ever imagined. In ＜em＞Rainy Brain, Sunny Brain＜/em＞, Fox describes a range of techniquesーfrom traditional cognitive behavioural therapy to innovative cognitive bias retraining exercisesーthat can actually alter our brains’ circuitry, strengthening specific thought processes by exercising the neural systems that control them. The implications are enormous: lifelong pessimists can train themselves to think positively and find happiness, while pleasure-seekers inclined toward risky or destructive behavior can take control of their lives.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Drawing on her own cutting-edge research, Fox shows how we can retrain our brains to brighten our lives and learn to flourish. With keen insights into how genes, life experiences and cognitive processes interleave together to make us who we are, ＜em＞Rainy Brain, Sunny＜/em＞ ＜em＞Brain＜/em＞ revolutionises our basic concept of individuality. We learn that we can influence our own personalities, and that our lives are only as 'sunny' or as 'rainy' as we allow them to be.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 2,750円 |

In ＜em＞The Joy of Sweat＜/em＞, Sarah Everts delves into its role in the bodyーand in human history.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Why is sweat salty? Why do we sweat when stressed? Why do some people produce colorful sweat? And should you worry about Big Brother tracking the hundreds of molecules that leak out in your sweatーnot just the stinky ones or alleged pheromonesーbut the ones that reveal secrets about your health and vices?＜/p＞ ＜p＞Everts’s entertaining investigation takes readers around the worldーfrom Moscow, where she participates in a dating event in which people sniff sweat in search of love, to New Jersey, where companies hire trained armpit sniffers to assess the efficacy of their anti-sweat products. In Finland, Everts explores the delights of the legendary smoke sauna and the purported health benefits of good sweat, while in the Netherlands she slips into the sauna theater scene, replete with costumes, special effects, and towel dancing.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Along the way, Everts traces humanity’s long quest to control sweat, culminating in the multibillion-dollar industry for deodorants and antiperspirants.

 Competing with the Soviets Science, Technology, and the State in Cold War America【電子書籍】[ Audra J. Wolfe ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜strong＞A synthetic account of how science became a central weapon in the ideological Cold War.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Honorable Mention for the Forum for the History of Science in America Book Prize of the Forum for the History of Science in America＜/p＞ ＜p＞For most of the second half of the twentieth century, the United States and its allies competed with a hostile Soviet Union in almost every way imaginable except open military engagement. The Cold War placed two opposite conceptions of the good society before the uncommitted world and history itself, and science figured prominently in the picture. ＜em＞Competing with the Soviets＜/em＞ offers a short, accessible introduction to the special role that science and technology played in maintaining state power during the Cold War, from the atomic bomb to the Human Genome Project.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The high-tech machinery of nuclear physics and the space race are at the center of this story, but Audra J. Wolfe also examines the surrogate battlefield of scientific achievement in such diverse fields as urban planning, biology, and economics; explains how defense-driven federal investments created vast laboratories and research programs; and shows how unfamiliar worries about national security and corrosive questions of loyalty crept into the supposedly objective scholarly enterprise.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Based on the assumption that scientists are participants in the culture in which they live, ＜em＞Competing with the Soviets＜/em＞ looks beyond the debate about whether military influence distorted science in the Cold War. Scientists’ choices and opportunities have always been shaped by the ideological assumptions, political mandates, and social mores of their times. The idea that American science ever operated in a free zone outside of politics is, Wolfe argues, itself a legacy of the ideological Cold War that held up American science, and scientists, as beacons of freedom in contrast to their peers in the Soviet Union. Arranged chronologically and thematically, the book highlights how ideas about the appropriate relationships among science, scientists, and the state changed over time.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 3,708円 |
 The Idea of Biblical Theology as a Science and as a Theological Discipline【電子書籍】[ Geerhardus Vos ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Every discussion of what is to be understood by Biblical Theology ought to proceed from a clear understanding of what Theology is in general. Etymology, in many cases a safer guide than a priori constructions, tells us that Theology is knowledge concerning God, and this primitive definition is fully supported by encyclop?dic principles. Only when making Theology knowledge concerning God do we have the right to call it a separate science. Sciences are not formed at haphazard, but according to an objective principle of division. As in general science is bound by its object and must let itself be shaped by reality; so likewise the classification of sciences, the relation of the various members in the body of universal knowledge, has to follow the great lines by which God has mapped out the immense field of the universe. The title of a certain amount of knowledge to be called a separate science depends on its reference to such a separate and specific object as is marked off by these God-drawn lines of distinction. We speak of a science of Biology, because God has made the phenomena of life distinct from those of inorganic being. Now, from this point of view we must say that no science has a clearer title to separate existence than Theology. Between God as the Creator and all other things as created the distinction is absolute. There is not another such gulf within the universe. God, as distinct from the creature, is the only legitimate object of Theology.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 436円 |

 Christian Science versus Pantheism ー Christian Science versus Pantheism Enriched edition. A Philosophical Examination of Faith and Healing in the Late 19th Century【電子書籍】[ Mary Baker Eddy ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞In "Christian Science versus Pantheism," Mary Baker Eddy presents a compelling exploration of the essential distinctions between Christian Science and pantheistic beliefs. Through a rigorous blending of theology and metaphysical inquiry, Eddy articulates her understanding of God as a personal, omnipotent being, contrasting this with pantheism's conception of the divine as a more abstract, impersonal force. The work is notable for its clear, systematic structure, reflecting Eddy's conviction that spiritual truths can be understood through reasoned discourse. Her style is marked by eloquent prose, characterized by both fervent conviction and scholarly precision, which invites readers to engage deeply with her arguments. This book serves as both a polemic and a clarion call for an authentic understanding of Christian Science within the broader spiritual landscape of the late 19th century, a time of significant religious transformation in America. Mary Baker Eddy (1821-1910), the founder of the Christian Science movement, was deeply influenced by her own spiritual experiences and the prevailing religious philosophies of her time. Her dedication to seeking spiritual truth stemmed from a personal struggle with illness and her eventual recovery through a profound spiritual awakening. This transformational journey led her to challenge prevailing notions of God and reality, ultimately culminating in her establishment of Christian Science as a distinct religious movement. Readers seeking a deeper understanding of the philosophical and theological underpinnings of Christian Science will find "Christian Science versus Pantheism" both enlightening and thought-provoking. Eddy's work not only delineates foundational beliefs that contrast sharply with pantheism but also invites readers to reflect on their own spiritual understandings. This book is an essential read for anyone interested in the intersections of faith, philosophy, and the evolving landscape of American spirituality. In this enriched edition, we have carefully created added value for your reading experience: - A succinct Introduction situates the work's timeless appeal and themes. - The Synopsis outlines the central plot, highlighting key developments without spoiling critical twists. - A detailed Historical Context immerses you in the era's events and influences that shaped the writing. - An Author Biography reveals milestones in the author's life, illuminating the personal insights behind the text. - A thorough Analysis dissects symbols, motifs, and character arcs to unearth underlying meanings. - Reflection questions prompt you to engage personally with the work's messages, connecting them to modern life. - Handーpicked Memorable Quotes shine a spotlight on moments of literary brilliance. - Interactive footnotes clarify unusual references, historical allusions, and archaic phrases for an effortless, more informed read.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 300円 |

 Cognitive Science An Introduction to the Science of the Mind【電子書籍】[ Jos? Luis Berm?dez ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞The fourth edition of this popular text has been significantly rewritten to make it more accessible to students and easier for instructors to use. It remains distinctive in presenting a unified narrative of cognitive science as a field of inquiry in its own right. Thematically organized, Cognitive Science underscores the problems and solutions of cognitive science rather than more narrowly examining individually the subjects that contribute to it - psychology, neuroscience, linguistics, and so on. The generous use of examples, illustrations, and applications demonstrates how theory and experiment can be applied to unlock the mysteries of the human mind. Drawing upon cutting-edge research, the text has been updated and enhanced with a new chapter on emotions and the emerging field of affective science. An extensive online set of resources is available to aid both instructors and students.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 7,960円 |
 Determined A Science of Life without Free Will【電子書籍】[ Robert M. Sapolsky ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞**The instant ＜em＞New York Times＜/em＞ bestseller＜/p＞ ＜p＞“Excellent . . . Outstanding for its breadth of research, the liveliness of the writing, and the depth of humanity it conveys.” ?＜em＞Wall Street Journal＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞One of our great behavioral scientists, the bestselling author of ＜em＞Behave＜/em＞, mounts a devastating scientific and philosophical case against free willーan argument with profound consequences**＜/p＞ ＜p＞Robert Sapolsky’s ＜em＞Behave＜/em＞, his now classic account of why humans do good and why they do bad, pointed toward an unsettling conclusion: we may not grasp exactly how nature and nurture create the physics and chemistry that cause all human behavior, but that doesn’t mean they don’t exist. In ＜em＞Determined＜/em＞, Sapolsky takes his argument all the way, mounting a brilliant (and in his inimitable way, delightful) full-frontal assault on the pleasant fantasy that there is some separate self who tells our biology what to do.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Determined＜/em＞ offers a marvelous synthesis of what we know about consciousnessーthe tight weave between reason and emotion and between stimulus and response in the moment and over a life. One by one, Sapolsky takes out all the major arguments for free will, cutting a path through the thickets of chaos theory and quantum physics. But as Sapolsky acknowledges, it’s sometimes impossible to uncouple from our zeal to judge people, including ourselves. ＜em＞Determined＜/em＞ applies this new understanding to some of our most essential questions around punishment, morality, and living well together. Most of all, Sapolsky argues that while accepting the reality about free will is monumentally difficult, it will make for a much more humane world.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 2,022円 |
