Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: conceptual, realist) theories of predication. Chapter IV.4 centers on an important class of expressions used for predication in connection with quantities: mass expressions. This chapter reviews the most well-known approaches to mass terms and the ontological proposals related to them. In addition to quantification and predication, matters of reference have constituted the other overriding theme for semantic theories in both philosophical logic and the semantics of natural languages. Chapter IV.5 of how the semantics of proper names and descrip presents an overview tions have been dealt with in recent theories of reference. Chapter IV.6 is concerned with the context-dependence of reference, in particular, with the semantics of indexical expressions. The topic of Chapter IV.7 is related to predication as it surveys some of the central problems of ascribing propositional attitudes to agents. Chap ter IV.8 deals with the analysis of the main temporal aspects of natural language utterances. Together these two chapters give a good indication of the intricate complexities that arise once modalities of one or the other sort enter on the semantic stage. in philosophical Chapter IV.9 deals with another well-known topic logic: presupposition, an issue on the borderline of semantics and prag matics. The volume closes with an extensive study of the Liar paradox and its many implications for the study of language (as for example, self reference, truth concepts and truth definitions).

This book was released on 2019-01-07 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The human history has many white links throughout its genesis phases, throughout its evolutionary and devolutionary periods and throughout its controversial becoming and fulfillments… One of this high dramatic controversial field is the persistence overall in Western Hemisphere of the concept of Race within the Specie Sapiens, Genus Homo, Hominid Family, Order Primate, Class Mammalia, Phylum Vertebrata, Kingdom Animalia, despite of anthropological and genetically advancements in a scientific argumentative way of the Species Sapiens without different Races within… Even if the World’s Politics and the World’s Media are still stubborn in presenting and defending the idea of different Races within our unique Species Sapiens, the biologic realities with scientific proofs are beyond of any doubt in favor of the Sapiens Species without different Races within, by putting thus aside a class of political and social concepts as race and racist, Rasse und Rassismus, with subsequent concept-o-logical developments of Pro-rassismus and Anti-rassismus… Sapientologist

This book was released on 2018-12-22 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: …Before knowing myself better, it is necessary to know my Species Sapiens, to whom I belong in my entirety… …But my Species Sapiens belongs at its row, to the Genus or Gattung Homo Anthropos, by enlisting here Homo Habilis, Homo Ergaster, Homo Erectus, Homo Heidelbergensis, Homo Neanderthal, whom, I should know them, at least in their generality… …Moreover, one ought know the Hominid Family, (Orangutan, Chimpanzee, Bonobo), then Order Primate, Class Mammals, Phylum Vertebrata, Kingdom Animals, Domain Multi-cellular… …Genesis of Sapiens must be accompanied by the Genesis of Life on our Planetary System, with Genesis of Solar System of Milky Way Galaxy, and Genesis of the Universe!... …Is it this endeavor a Sapient-o-mania?... Not at all, it is an encyclopedic and interdisciplinary reality of our Species Sapiens!... Nothing more, nothing less… …But, In which way, would be possible to change the whole of Sapiens into a Shooting – star Species?... Possible, but reporting the Sapiens to Sapiens itself, done through a Philosophical System of the whole Species!... …Let’s reiterate that nothing in Sapiens makes sense, except in the light of creativity!... …More than that, there is no Species owner, SAPIENSEIGENTÜMER ! Through SAPIENTOLOGIZATION will be reached out the greatest overdrive in additional speed of knowledge - episteme and creativity – noesis, of the whole Sapiens throughout of its development in the last 50.000 years!... …Almost every human being wants to know primarily, of where she / he comes from, who is she / he and where she/ he goes... …Almost every man would like to know who is her / his ancestors are, and who will be her / his offspring... …Almost every human being would like to know, how was the origin of humankind, its past, its present existence and to found out, to foresee in advance, its possible future... …By observing and researching the nature of human, it was taught that, without ancestors, without preceding branches, no offspring would arise... …Through the discovery of the laws of nature, it has been found or found that the theory of evolution contradicts almost all of the myths of creation of religions and of theologies... …Through the sciences of biology, of anthropology and sapientology, the man had ascertained their kinship with the human beings, by calling himself as Wisdom - man, as Intelligent Being, as Creative Being or HOMO SAPIENS... …With this biological name, HOMO, in connection with the self-given artificial names of SAPIENS by INTELLIGENCE, the humanity development recognizes many creations and achievements (in art, in technology, in science, in civilizations, in partial prosperity, in the treatment of epidemic diseases, in prolongation of average lifespan), by admitting also many catastrophic results of wild behaviors as wars, as civilizations destroying, or as illegal migration, as religious fanaticism and terrorism ...

Download or read book Principles of Philosophy written by Michael Jean Nystrom-Schut and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2018-10-27 with total page 1462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not just anyone sits down to write their own personal Bible. The famous one, popular with millions of Christians, was penned by 35-40 different authors, over a span of some 1100 years. As of 1995, it was still considered (Guinness) the world’s #1 best seller of all-time. In stark contrast, Michael’s 2-volume Principles of Philosophy was meditated, contemplated, drafted, and written - in deep anonymity and solitude - over a daily and nightly 30-month span. His two books come in at over 800,000 words (the same as ten 80,000-word works). With the King James Old and New Testament totaling just over 783,000 words, it is easy to see why Michael views himself as both prolific (plentiful) and loquacious (talkative) when it pertains to laying down thought. As the Bible is for millions on the planet, Michael feels his principles are also a template - an owner’s manual - a guidebook - for (in particular) how to: (1) view life on earth; (2) work on the detail of one’s philosophy and worldview; and (3) examine and conduct a balanced, meaningful existence on this planet. The Holy Bible consists of 80 books (39 in the Old Hebrew part, 14 in the Apocrypha, and 27 in the New Christian part). Michael’s Principles (Volumes One and Two) each cover 84 chapters of the basic areas of life as he views them, with 21 chapters outlined each, for: (1) the mental; (3) the social; and (2) the material; (4) the spiritual areas of our lives. A detailed numbering system is in place for quick reference to topics. Each volume happens to come in at 613 entries, making a total of 1226 separate entries in the two books. By dictionary definition, a “principle” is defined as a “fundamental truth or proposition that serves as the foundation for a system of belief or behavior or for a chain of reasoning.” This is precisely why he chose “principles” in the title. His own personal philosophical principles are what he tries to practice daily. Michael even states they are likely the reason he is still with us in bodily form on the earth, and remains in (relative) possession of his right mind as well. Since leaving organized religion early on in life, these tenants, practiced in balance, have been what Michael has focused on for several decades. They work well for him. In the course of these pursuits, he says he has come to thousands of conclusions. And they all point to the balanced life. As he insists, for him, it is all about equivalent portions of mind (mental), body (material), relationships (social), and spirituality (God; the Universe). Basically, everything can be summed up within these four primary areas of life. Michael seems to never hesitate to conclude that he has found his own personal means of salvation in the midst of pursuing his balance of the Principles of Philosophy. - Tanya Walker (wife)
