Life Understood From a Scientific and Religious Point of View [microform]
Sophia Volume 16, Number 2
by Seyyed Hossein Nasr, Dr Wolfgang Smith, and Charles Upton
The present framing of the cultural debate in terms of materialism versus religion has allowed materialism to go unchallenged as the only rationally-viable metaphysics. This book seeks to change this. It uncovers the absurd implications of materialism and then, uniquely, presents a hard-nosed non-materialist metaphysics substantiated by skepticism, hard empirical evidence, and clear logical argumentation. It lays out a coherent framework upon which one can interpret and make sense of every natur...

Substance and the Fundamentality of the Familiar explicates and defends a novel neo-Aristotelian account of the structure of material objects.

Another aim of the book is to further develop the newly revived area concerning the question of fundamental mereology, the question of whether...
The book deals with a central question for the understanding of reality and the way in which human beings relate to it. Humans are creatures that can deliberate and define their actions by virtue of deliberation. He who deliberates relates himself to elements of reality that speak for or against doing something, and that in some mysterious way require him to act in a certain fashion. This book investigates this normative reality and its ontology. There is no normativity in reality independent fr...
Truth: Its Nature, Criteria and Conditions (Philosophische Analyse / Philosophical Analysis, #42)

The theories of the nature of empirical truth critically considered include two forms of the traditional correspondence theory; truth as appraisal; truth as identity of proposition and truth; en emotive theory of truth; P.F. Strawson's performative theory, and N. Rescher's novel theory of a coherentist criterion of truth. The constructive parts include an analysis of the concept of "a fac...
