Prolegomena to Natural Law

Making Up Your Mind About Waking Up Your Mind
A rational alternative to spirituality and self-help
2022 || Paperback || Richard van der Linde || Brave New Books
Our beliefs are the lenses through which we perceive life. In turn, those beliefs are influenced by our perception of previous experiences. So, what if we accidentally misperceive something?

what We Know About Science, History and the Mind - And How We Know It
2022 || Paperback || A.C. Grayling || Viking UK
'Grayling brings satisfying order to daunting subjects' Steven Pinker
In very recent times humanity has learnt a vast amount about the universe, the past, and itself. But through our remarkable successes in acquiring knowledge we have learned how much we have yet to learn: the science we have, for example, addresses just 5 per cent of the universe; pre-history is still being revealed, with thousands of historical sites yet to be explored; and the new neurosciences of mind and brain are just b...
Pilate and Jesus
2015 || Paperback || Giorgio Agamben || Stanford University Press
Pontius Pilate is one of the most enigmatic figures in Christian theology. The only non-Christian to be named in the Nicene Creed, he is presented as a cruel colonial overseer in secular accounts, as a conflicted judge convinced of Jesus's innocence in the Gospels, and as either a pious Christian or a virtual demon in later Christian writings. This book takes Pilate's role in the trial of Jesus as a starting point for investigating the function of legal judgment in Western society and the way...
