Excerpt from A Theory of Monads: Outlines of the Philosophy of the Principle of Relativity
IN this book I have brought together studies which have occupied me for many years, and have tried to impress on them the directive force of my general philosophy of life. They do not pretend to the completeness of system, they are not meant to suggest that a final solution of the philosophical problem is to be attained along any definite speculative line, they are not even my voyage of dis covery, they are my exploration of the great problem of existence. Yet while I am conscious that I may have raised more problems than I have elucidated, with regard to one problem at least, I think I may claim to have made an advance. For many years it seemed to me that philosophy was paralysed by the inability to offer any escape from the solipsistic dilemma, and in the theory of the monads this difficulty has always seemed to assume its most intractable form. The argument which I have developed in my second chapter and illustrated in my tenth, may not appeal with the same force to every one, but it is the argument which satisfies me on this point.

Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book sets out to explore the nature of monads, a philosophical concept referring to the fundamental building blocks of existence. Beginning with a critique of traditional scientific materialism, the author argues that the concept of mind as a passive recipient of external stimuli is inadequate and presents a theory of monads as active, windowless centers of experience. The author draws on diverse fields, including physics, mathematics, biology, psychology, and logic, demonstrating how the monadic concept can unify a wide range of phenomena. Through an examination of perception, volition, action, and social intercourse, the book presents a comprehensive theory of the mind and its place in the world. Ultimately, this book offers a profound and thought-provoking exploration of the nature of reality and the relationship between mind and matter, providing valuable insights for anyone interested in philosophy, science, or the nature of consciousness. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
