Consciousness Came First

Dualism has a long track in philosophy. Although often overlooked, it supports much of our worldview, and lies at the center of many frontline scientific issues. This dialectic has specific phrasings in different scientific areas, but it is arguably the expression of the same conflict in diverse contexts: namely, the framework between Matter and Information, or, metaphorically, the frontier between the Territory and the Map. This book attempts to analyse this Map/Territory frontier in several quite different settings, including its relevance in the present trans-humanist projects. It tries to draw parallelisms and similarities between diverse territories (e.g. the idea of Entropy as the distance between the Map and the Territory, the dependence on deep 'hyperpriors' such as Space, Time or the 'Me/Not-Me' duality, etc). It also points at certain resonances between a number of very actual scientific problems and certain trends in oriental philosophy. This Map/Territory polarity is especially present in Medicine, and a significant part of the book addresses this polarity as it is perceived in clinical practice.The gap between the Map (disease as an entity) and the Territory (the patient’s ailment) is at the heart of most theoretical (and practical!) medical problems, and is the cause of many patient-physician misunderstandings. We cannot conceive a clinical practice without the concept of disease. But at the same time, we are all painfully aware of the inconsistencies and contradictions brought by this paradigm. The impending crisis derived from this approach, as well as some other alternative medical narratives are discussed.

Edition Medienwissenschaft

In einer global vernetzten, digital durchdrungenen Welt genügt es nicht mehr, in geschlossenen Systemen zu denken. Der Blick richtet sich vielmehr auf das, was Systeme verbindet und definiert: das Spiel der Schnittstellen. Als Orte der Übertragung, Filterung, Übersetzung und Sinnbildung werden sie zu den zentralen Erkenntnisobjekten überhaupt. Zwischen Mensch und Maschine, Kultur und Technik, Sprache und Material ermöglichen sie nicht nur Austausch, sondern auch ständige Veränderung. Christian Stein führt interdisziplinäre Perspektiven aus&nbsp;Medien-, Kultur-, Technik- und Naturwissenschaften zusammen.&nbsp;So öffnet er ein neues Denken - eines, das Schnittstellen offenlegt und zu ihrer aktiven Mit- und Umgestaltung anregt.

Why Change Is Hard and How We Can Achieve It

New Beginnings

At the beginning of the 20th century, modern science asserted that only matter really exists. Science, philosophy, and culture declared the victory of materialism over all other worldviews. The contemporary world was formatted according to the software of materialism, coupled with Darwinism, capitalism, individualism, and consumerism. This system engendered the infernal cycle of over-exploitation, over-production, and over-consumption, with many negative consequences. After a century of exponential development, contemporary science is now asserting: Matter doesn't really exist. Different interpretations of contemporary physics, as well as the union of the quantum revolution and the information processing revolution, are leading to the revolutionary conclusion that the universe is not made up of matter or material objects but of energy - understood as activity and complex information-processing systems or agents.

The Trinitarian Philosophy Of Jules Monchanin

If in its simplest form, hermeneutics is a quest for understanding, then part of that quest will always include striving to understand being and the meaning of being. This open access book takes that ambition seriously, arguing that hermeneutics and metaphysics, so central to philosophical thought but so rarely put in tandem, are two complementary fundamentals of human existence. Metaphysical Hermeneutics puts forward the argument for a hermeneutical metaphysics in service of philosophy's basic aim: to make sense of our experience. Jean Grondin builds his argument for this combined discipline around the idea of 'sense' - a theme that is both hermeneutical and metaphysical. What we seek to glimpse is not just a figment of the mind but always the meaning of something. Grondin calls on one of the founding figures of contemporary hermeneutics Hans-Georg Gadamer to test his theories, singling out the metaphysical dimension of Gadamer's ideas and questioning his seeming embrace and rejection of that dimension. Rooting these questions in the human search for meaning is a major contribution to the scope and resources of hermeneutic philosophy. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.
