Explores the relevance of hermeneutics for modern human sciences, its history and development, and its key philosophical debates.
The Philosophy of Nicolai Hartmann
Nicolai Hartmann was one of the most prolific and original, yet sober, clear and rigorous, 20th century German philosophers. Hartmann was brought up as a Neo-Kantian, but soon turned his back on Kantianism to become one of the most important proponents of ontological realism. He developed what he calls the “new ontology”, on which relies a systematic opus dealing with all the main areas of philosophy. His work had major influences both in philosophy and in various scientific disciplines. The contributions collected in this volume from an international group of Hartmann scholars and philosophers explore subjects such as Hartmann's philosophical development from Neo-Kantianism to ontological realism, the difference between the way he and Heidegger overcame Neo-Kantianism, his Platonism concerning eternal objects and his interpretation of Plato, his Aristotelianism, his theoretical relation to Wolff's ontology and Meinong's theory of objects, his treatment and use of the aporematic method, his metaphysics, his ethics and theory of values, his philosophy of mind, his philosophy of mathematics, as well as the influence he had on 20th century philosophical anthropology and biology.

Life of a Humble Believer
First of all, I want to thank you for choosing to take a look at my book. I am sure you will find it interesting in the transition from childhood--humble but hardworking since my early years--to adulthood--with its experiences with destiny. We should always pay attention to what happens to us, always asking ourselves whether it is our free choices or choices we cannot avoid making. The essence of the book is contained in chapters 2, 7, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 21, and 22. The other chapters tell about everyday life, how things can be intricate, and how you can suddenly receive so much grace from the Lord. I am a Roman Catholic by religion, but I respect all of them. Receiving nocturnal visits from those in the afterlife and being healed is not easy to face without being a believer. Visiting and walking in the higher heavens and then returning back is not easy at all if you do not believe in something greater than yourself. I wish you a good read, and I hope you enjoy it, even though my way of expressing myself is very straightforward, as I am not an established writer. I am a simple man who has written the truth.
Introduction to Anticipation Studies
This book presents the theory of anticipation, and establishes anticipation of the future as a legitimate topic of research. It examines anticipatory behavior, i.e. a behavior that ‘uses’ the future in its actual decisional process. The book shows that anticipation violates neither the ontological order of time nor causation. It explores the question of how different kinds of systems anticipate, and examines the risks and uses of such anticipatory practices. The book first summarizes the research on anticipation conducted within a range of different disciplines, and describes the connection between the anticipatory point of view and futures studies. Following that, its chapters on Wholes...
