We have an intimate knowledge of the Chinese, from often meeting with them on our cups and saucers. They have no idea of us. At the beginning of our late glorious and high-minded war with China, the Centre of the Universe informed his soldiers that their great object should be to make the English tumble down. If it were only by beating gongs, or by frightening them, so that they caused them to fall down, that would sumec for if the English fell they could be taken. The clothes of English soldiers, said the Brother of the Sun, are made so tight that those who are in them when they tumble down are quite unable, by any struggling, to get up again. And so the Chinese thought to ship ofi' Englishmen at leisure, like the turtles, after they had once been thrown upon their backs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Secret of Progress Buckle1 regarded it as clear that militarism and high intellectual development were not compatible: till recently, many people were prepared to believe that warfare was alien to the interest of civilised peoples and could only occur among half civilised or backward races. But this war has shown that these hopes were vain, and that the last result of civilisation was not to render war impossible, but to give the means of carrying it out on a vastly extended scale. The increase of knowledge and of power over nature, and the sense of the benefits of intercourse and inter-communication have not sufficed to give us any immunity from war.

Book excerpt: This book develops new ideas in feminist epistemology by exploring diverse and sometimes positive roles for ignorance. The author argues that epistemic values cannot simply be reduced to the value of increasing knowledge and that ignorance is not merely inescapable for epistemic agents, but, rather, is valuable. She shows that ignorance-friendly epistemology offers a better descriptive and normative account of human epistemic practices. --publisher.
Download or read book A Defence of Prejudice written by John Grier Hibben and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Defence of Prejudice: And Other Essays What is prejudice? Is it always something unreasonable? Is it to be regarded necessarily as an intruder among the more sober activities of the mind? Is it the enemy of clear thinking? Is it the counterfeit of a true judgment?. There are many who would give an unqualified assent to these characterizations of the nature of prejudice. I am persuaded, however, that there is a certain form of prejudice that admits of a rational defence. In this defence, moreover, I am not taking merely the part of a devil's advocate; but, on the contrary, I am profoundly convinced that there is a prejudice which has a proper place in the processes of the mind, and must be reckoned with as a natural factor in our thinking, and is not to be regarded in any sense as an abnormal and disturbing element.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Charge of Ignorance and Misrepresentation Proved Against "a Lover of Cudworth and Truth" Un'itarians rejoice in this discussion, through the hope that it may be the means of convey ing more just ideas respecting our religious faith to that part of the community prejudiced against us. They have been kept in ignorance of our sentiments, and subjected to every kind of in uence by which they might be alienated from our fellowship. Such violent and fierce hostility towards us as that evinced by my op ponent has been diffused as far as possible into the hearts of the people, who have thus been placed beyond the reach of those simple, ration al, holy and scriptural principles which we' maintain, and which need only to be known to be received, and will surely spread and prevail whenever an occasion like the present awakens a general interest in their discussion.
