Hardback. It would seem that modern humanity has unthroned the human spirit, undercutting the foundation of the validity of truth, moral values and principles. There appears to be no attempt to discern what is beautiful and true: it is functional and pragmatic usefulness that seem to dominate human evaluations and transactions with other humans and animals.

Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 229 x 152 x 23. Weight in Grams: 1640.

Hardback. Philosophy, art criticism and popular opinion all seem to treat the aesthetics of the comic as lightweight, while the tragic seems to be regarded with greater seriousness.

Hardback. Heidegger holds that our age is dominated by the ambition of reason to possess the world. Leibniz is the man who formulated the theorem: nothing happens without a reason.
