Download or read book World Technology and Human Destiny Classic Reprint written by Raymond Aron and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from World Technology and Human Destiny Raymond Aron conceived, prepared, and directed the Basel-Rheinfelden conference. The need for it had become increasingly clear in the course of the preceding conferences organized under the presidency of Michael Polanyi. The over-all title given them was "Tradition and Evolution." The technical revolution is spreading throughout the world; new techniques are revolutionizing our way of life. But does the industrial society dictate to the mind - to the point of imposing a determined ideology upon it - or do our moral values allow us to impress various forms on this society? Necessity and liberty, the one and the many, instrumental values and ultimate values present questions of a philosophical nature that Raymond Aron felt should be discussed by philosophers, but not in an abstract way. The originality of the Basel-Rheinfelden conference lies in the fact that eminent theoreticians and specialists have been called upon to make concrete predictions and give their opinions on a wide range of subjects. It was practically impossible to include within the limits of a single volume the richness of the Rheinfelden conversations. In any event, much had to be condensed, therefore much sacrificed. But the cutting was also extremely uneven. As was to be expected, the discussions grew animated and strayed far from the main subject, and, although these were often the most interesting and fruitful exchanges, they had to be eliminated for the sake of unity.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Problem of Human Destiny: As Conditioned by Free Will During the session of the Universalist General Convention held in Boston, 1899, an evening was set apart as Interdenominational Evening. The attendance at this congress of the churches was large, and profound interest was manifest. His Excellency, Governor Wolcott, gave an address of welcome; Dr. Francis G. Peabody of Harvard University spoke for the Unitarians, and Dr. Frank O. Hall of New York, for the Universalists. Dr. Lyman Abbott, editor of The Outlook representing the Congregationalists, gave a notable address entitled, "Why I am not a Universalist." This address was printed in full in The Outlook, and later in The Universalist Leader, and immediately called forth a review by Prof. W. G. Tousey of Tufts College, under the caption, "An Open Letter to Dr. Lyman Abbott." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Nonzero written by Robert Wright and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2001-04-20 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his bestselling The Moral Animal, Robert Wright applied the principles of evolutionary biology to the study of the human mind. Now Wright attempts something even more ambitious: explaining the direction of evolution and human history–and discerning where history will lead us next. In Nonzero: The Logic of Human Destiny, Wright asserts that, ever since the primordial ooze, life has followed a basic pattern. Organisms and human societies alike have grown more complex by mastering the challenges of internal cooperation. Wright's narrative ranges from fossilized bacteria to vampire bats, from stone-age villages to the World Trade Organization, uncovering such surprises as the benefits of barbarian hordes and the useful stability of feudalism. Here is history endowed with moral significance–a way of looking at our biological and cultural evolution that suggests, refreshingly, that human morality has improved over time, and that our instinct to discover meaning may itself serve a higher purpose. Insightful, witty, profound, Nonzero offers breathtaking implications for what we believe and how we adapt to technology's ongoing transformation of the world.

He questioned himself; he sought to divine who could have been that soul in torment which had not been willing to quit this world without leaving this stigma of crime or unhappi ness upon the brow of the ancient church.
