A lot of people play video games. A lot of people think they have good, even great, ideas. So what happens when these two worlds collide? Well, Epiphanies, Theories, and Downright Good Thoughts... tries to answer these questions for us. The video game industry has boomed into a monster of the consumer market and though we may not realize it, this unstoppable machine has left a fingerprint on the generation that has grown up playing them. And by fingerprint, we mean a giant freaking punch. So now, only now, we are beginning to see what years of video game-playing, sitting-in-front-of-the-tv-for hours, learning-to-use-surge-protectors has done to our future. One such pioneer who survived this dangerous time is our author, J.C.L. Faltot, who takes a serious, albeit sarcastic, look into the machine that is the video game monster. How video games have helped shape the market, touched the lives of those who play them, and defined people like Faltot for the rest of his life. For better or for worse. And perhaps in many ways (as you will find along Faltots estranged journey) its often a little bit of both.
WE USE THE WORD “GOOD” EVERY DAY without really thinking about what it truly means. What does “good” mean? We say “good morning,” we call a tasty meal “good,” and if we’ve seen a movie we liked we say it was “good.” But “good” has a deeper meaning, one that is central to the core of our being, and expresses our authentic self. Zarathustra, the founder of Mazdaism and Zoroastrianism, teaches the meaning of “good” by encouraging “good thoughts, good words, good deeds.” This teaching delves into the consciousness of each person’s right to choose. By becoming aware of our internal world and choosing good thoughts and good words, we reach higher levels of consciousness and the result is doing good deeds. We grow into our authentic selves when we do no harm to ourselves or others. This is the meaning of “good.” By once again employing analogy and metaphor, Bahram invites us into a deeper understanding of what it means to choose what is good and follow the universal teachings of Zarathustra.

Anschließend an den 2017 herausgegebenen Sammelband widmet sich auch der vorliegende zweite Teil der Geschichte des Problems der Kategorien.

Vielmehr soll ein Beitrag zu einem umfangreichen Projekt geleistet werden, das allmählich sein Ziel erreicht. In diesem Band wurde das Problem der Kategorien bei weiteren Philosophen, von Platon bis Quine, untersucht; die vorliegende Arbeit bildet dadurch eine Ergänzung zum ersten Teilband.
