Which is more likely to kill you: "A diet high in natural fats or a diet high in additives?" The answers to these questions may really surprise you.

Specials

Everything is extensively cross-referenced, making it easy to look up the thousands of dream elements and solve the mysteries buried deep in the unconscious.

Kierkegaard for Beginners

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Palmer, Donald D., PUBLISHER: For Beginners, Philosophically, Soren Kierkegaard was the "bridge" that led from Hegel to Existentialism. Kierkegaard abhorred Hegel's abstract, know-it-all idealism that tried to capture reality in a few words. Kierkegaard's attack on social and religious complacency and his single-handed assault on traditional Western philosophy generated a crisis that produced a radically new way of philosophizing and made him the founder of the school that would later be called Existentialism. To Kierkegaard, reality was personal, subjective-it began and ended with the individual-and philosophy was not something one merely talked about, it was the way you lived. "Kierkegaard For Beginners" explains, plainly and simply, the great Danish thinker's obsession with the particularity of human existence as well as his demonstration of how the creation of an authentic new kind of individual is possible.
