人生是剧场。? 长久以来，生活经验的积累，主动内建或被动植入的信念演变为我们内心的“木马程序”，逐步导致了故步自封的自囚状态，让我们在毫无察觉的情况下被篡改潜意识、控制自主性，一再受困于重复的剧情，在不快乐与挣扎中轮回。? 假若不及时清除，木马程序就会越来越强大，直到耗尽你的所有能量。? 《人类木马程序》就像人间剧场上方的大型探照灯，帮每个人照亮舞台，打掉“木马之墙”，看清自己在演哪出戏。? 看得清，我们就可以改变自己的生命剧本，把悲剧改为喜剧，从而打开全新的生命维度，不要再让木马程序运作不想要的人生。?

Benedict de Spinoza lived a life of blameless simplicity as alens-grinder in Holland. And yet in his lifetime, he was expelledfrom the Jewish community in Amsterdam as a heretic, and after hisdeath his words were first banned by the Christian authorities asatheistic, then hailed by humanists as the gospel of Pantheism. His"Ethics Demonstrated in Geometrical Order" shows us the realitybehind this enigmatic figure. First published by his friends afterhis premature death at the age of 44, the "Ethics" uses the methodsof Euclid to describe a single entity, properly called both "God"and "Nature", of which mind and matter are two manifestations. Fromthis follow, in ways that are strikingly modern, the identity ofmind and body, the necessary causation of events and actions, andthe illusory nature of free will.

One of Freud’s central achievements was to demonstrate howunacceptable thoughts and feelings are repressed into theunconscious, from where they continue to exert a decisive influenceover our lives. This volume contains a key statement about evidencefor the unconscious, and how it works, as well as major essays onall the fundamentals of mental functioning. Freud explores how weare torn between the pleasure principle and the reality principle,how we often find ways both to express and to deny what we mostfear, and why certain men need fetishes for their sexualsatisfaction. His study of our most basic drives, and how they aretransformed, brilliantly illuminates the nature of sadism,masochism, exhibitionism and voyeurism.

Susan Neiman is a moral philosopher committed to making thetools of her trade relevant to real life. In "Moral Clarity, "sheshows how resurrecting a moral vocabulary--"good "and "evil,heroism "and "nobility"--can steer us clear of the dogmas of theright and the helpless pragmatism of the left. In search of aframework for forming clear opinions and taking responsible actionon today's urgent political and social questions, Neiman reachesback to the eighteenth century, retrieving a set ofvirtues--happiness, reason, reverence, and hope--that were heldhigh by every Enlightenment thinker. She shows that the pursuit ofmoral clarity is not a matter of religious faith but is open to allwho are committed to these ideals, believers and nonbelieversalike. And she draws on literature, evolutionarytheory, and othercontemporary research to show why, by keeping before us thedistinction between the real and the possible, these idealscontinue to guide and inspire.

This book is an investigation of the methodological andepistemological foundations of macroeconomic theory, based on anexamination of the theories of Keynes and Lucas. It is divided intotwo parts. In the first Professor Vercelli discusses themethodological issues which lie behind the conflict among differentschools of thought in macroeconomics (equilibrium anddisequilibrium, risk and uncertainty, rationality and causality).These issues are central to the current debate not only in manybranches of economics, but also in other scientific disciplines.The traditional point of view of science based on equilibrium,stability and determinism has been increasingly challenged by a newpoint of view in which disequilibrium, instability and uncertaintyplay a crucial role. This, the author argues, is bound to putmacroeconomics in a new, more promising position. In the secondpart of the book the author compares the two main alternativeresearch programmes in macroeconomics: that outlined by Keynes inhis 'General Theory', an

The defining feature of relevant logic is that it forces the premises of an argument to be really used and thus become “relevant” in deriving its conclusion。This book introduces the reader to relevant logic and provides it with a philosophical interpretation。The logic is analyzed in the context of possible world semantics and situation semantics， which are then applied to provide an understanding of the various logical particles （especially implication and negation） and natural language conditionals。The book concludes by examining various applications of relevant logic。 This book introduces the reader to relevant logic and provides it with a philosophical interpretation。The defining feature of relevant logic is that it forces the premises of an argument to be really used （‘relevant’） in deriving its conclusion。The logic is placed in the context of possible world semantics and situation semantics， which are then applied to provide an understanding of the various logical pa

With over 250 pictures, this votume is a unique record of an age at once charming and terrifying, under a pair of insecurity extending over a frightened wortd: The troubtes in Northern IreLand and terrorism at the Munich Olympic Games, "beautiful people" and the arrivat of Punk, the inspiring "giant Leap for mankind" and the shame of the Watergate Scandal.

Marriage and Morals is a compelling cross-cultural examination of individual, familial and societal attitudes towards sex and marriage. By exploring the codes by which we live our sexual lives and conventional morality, Russell daringly sets out a new morality, shaped and influenced by dramatic changes in society such as the emancipation of women and the wide-spread use of contraceptives. From the origin of marriage to the influence of religion, Russell explores the changing role of marriage and codes of sexual ethics. The influence of this great work has turned it into a worthy classic. 作者简介： Bertrand Russell (1872-1970) was born in England and educated at Trinity College, Cambridge. His long career established him as one of the most influential philosophers, mathematicians, and social reformers of the twentieth century. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

Andy Warhol kept these diaries faithfully from November 1976right up to his final week, in February 1987. Written at the heightof his fame and success, Warhol records the fun of an AcademyAwards party, nights out at Studio 54, trips between London, Parisand New York, and surprisingly even the money he spent each day,down to the cent. With appearances from and references to everyonewho was anyone, from Jim Morrison, Martina Navratilova and CalvinKlein to Shirley Bassey, Estee Lauder and Muhammad Ali, thesediaries are the most glamorous, witty and revealing writings of thetwentieth century.

Jean-Paul Sartre, the seminal smarty-pants of mid-century thinking, launched the existentialist fleet with the publication of Being and Nothingness in 1943. Though the book is thick, dense, and unfriendly to careless readers, it is indispensable to those interested in the philosophy of consciousness and free will. Some of his arguments are fallacious, others are unclear, but for the most part Sartre's thoughts penetrate deeply into fundamental philosophical territory. Basing his conception of self-consciousness loosely on Heidegger's "being," Sartre proceeds to sharply delineate between conscious actions ("for themselves") and unconscious ("in themselves"). It is a conscious choice, he claims, to live one's life "authentically" and in a unified fashion, or not--this is the fundamental freedom of our lives. Drawing on history and his own rich imagination for examples, Sartre offers compelling supplements to his more formal arguments. The waiter who detaches himself from his job-role sticks in the reader'

Outrageously funny, Plato and a Platypus Walk into a Bar . . . has been a breakout bestseller ever since authors—and born vaudevillians—Thomas Cathcart and Daniel Klein did their schtick on NPR’s Weekend Edition. Lively, original, and powerfully informative, Plato and a Platypus Walk Into a Bar . . . is a not-so-reverent crash course through the great philosophical thinkers and traditions, from Existentialism (What do Hegel and Bette Midler have in common?) to Logic (Sherlock Holmes never deduced anything). Philosophy 101 for those who like to take the heavy stuff lightly, this is a joy to read—and finally, it all makes sense!

The Yeats anthology of the poems of William Blake is that great rarity: one great visionary poet's anthology of everything that moves him about another, even greater one. Yeats prepared it in 1905 and it probably remains the single greatest single one-volume edition of William Blake extant, the one that, in less than 250 pages, presents as sensibly compressed and canny an edition as you'll ever find of perhaps the least sensible and most chaotic genius of English poetry. Even those who have the complete Blake in a couple of editions will find Yeats' Blake all-but-indispensable. –Buffalo News, April 6, 2003 This selection of Blake's work was commissioned in 1905 by the firm of George Routledge from W.B. Yeats. Yeats, one of the few poets comparable to Blake, prepared a unique selection of his poetic and prose writings.

Non Sequitur has been entertaining fans for more than a decade, with its Twilight Zone of cartoon moments. Day after day, Non Sequitur hilariously jabs at the feats and foibles of life, skewering everyone from politicians to teenagers. Wiley's irreverent, satirical wit, combined with his superbly crafted illustrations, confirms that the universe is one big joke at humanity's expense.That said, some of Non Sequitur's most popular panels have been the ones where Wiley has offered his takes on "What he heard/what she said." In strip after strip, the cartoonist succinctly captures the absurd and unexpected miscommunications that lie at the heart of every relationship. For example:o What he heard: "Let's go drain the life force from your body." What she said: "Let's go shopping."o What he heard: "Honey, why don't you put your head in a vise and I'll turn the handle until your skull explodes." What she said: "Honey, why don't we turn off the TV and just talk."o What she heard: "Life as we know it will cease to exis

Maurice Merleau-Ponty was one of the most important thinkers of the post-war era. Central to his thought was the idea that human understanding comes from our bodily experience of the world that we perceive: a deceptively simple argument, perhaps, but one that he felt had to be made in the wake of attacks from contemporary science and the philosophy of Descartes on the reliability of human perception. From this starting point, Merleau-Ponty presented these seven lectures on The World of Perception to French radio listeners in 1948. Available in a paperback English translation for the first time in the Routledge Classics series to mark the centenary of Merleau-Ponty’s birth, this is a dazzling and accessible guide to a whole universe of experience, from the pursuit of scientific knowledge, through the psychic life of animals to the glories of the art of Paul Cézanne.

This collection of writings is famous for giving us the phrase'Freudian slip'. It also builds up a strong social history ofVienna and the middle-class social milieu of Freud and hispatients. Through a series of case histories, some no longer than afew lines long, Freud explores how it is that normal people makeslips of speech, writing, reading and remembering in their everydaylife, and reveals what it is that they betray about the existenceof a sub-text or subliminal motive to our conscious actions. As heexplains, most of these slips tend of be of a relatively anodynenature, but some are a little more sinister, particularly thosewhere pride or thwarted love are concerned...

In this "lucid primer of Russian thought" ( The TimesLiterary Supplement ), Lesley Chamberlain finds that during thelast two centuries Russian intellectuals have asked two fundamentalquestions, "what makes a good man?" and "what is the right way tolive?" The nineteenth-century ideal of a happy man living in a justsociety became, in Russia, a quest to effect the wholesaletransformation of society. Chamberlain shows how this moralpassion, manifesting itself in philosophy and literature, existedin both pre- and post-revolutionary Russia. She reveals that 1917did not represent the watershed we once thought, and shows how thedreams of a plain and simple life reached its negative apotheosisunder Lenin. In Motherland , Lesley Chamberlain has produceda radical new interpretation of Russian intellectual history that,finally, gives a glimpse in to the soul of that singularcountry.
