From one of our leading thinkers, a dazzling philosophical journey through virtual worldsIn the coming decades, the technology that enables virtual and augmented reality will improve beyond recognition. Within a century, world-renowned philosopher David J. Chalmers predicts, we will have virtual worlds that are impossible to distinguish from non-virtual worlds. But is virtual reality just escapism? In a highly original work of 'technophilosophy', Chalmers argues categorically, no: virtual reality is genuine reality. Virtual worlds are not second-class worlds. We can live a meaningful life in virtual reality - and increasingly, we will.What is reality, anyway? How can we lead a good life? Is there a god? How do we know there's an external world - and how do we know we're not living in a computer simulation? In Reality+, Chalmers conducts a grand tour of philosophy, using cutting-edge technology to provide invigorating new answers to age-old questions.Drawing on examples from pop culture, literature and film that help bring philosophical issues to life, Reality+ is a mind-bending journey through virtual worlds, illuminating the nature of reality and our place within it.

eBook: Lze dosáhnout jednou provždy pravdivého a jistého poznání? Jak se vyhnout paradoxu barona Prášila? Je moderní věda nikou objektivity oproštěné od lidských hodnot a omylů? Kde v současném proměnlivém světě hledat mravní ukotvení a smysl života? Nejen na tyto otázky se pokouší odpovědět filosofický směr označovaný jako kritický racionalismus, který se profiluje jako alternativa k tradiční epistemologii, novopozitivismu, ale i postmodernismu. Jako svébytný metodologický přístup se inspiruje vědeckým pohledem na svět, umožňuje konfrontaci s moderními technologiemi i tradiční teologií a má zakládat plnohodnotný životní postoj. Opírá se o nedogmatické pojetí racionality, jež počítá se sebereflexí a fenoménem chyby. Jitka Paitlová představuje kritickoracionalistická řešení klíčových filosofických problémů z oblasti poznání, vědy, etiky i náboženství. Vychází přitom zejména z interpretace textů Hanse Alberta, které vznikaly v polemice s německou filosofickou tradicí 20. století. Přidává nové postřehy ke Karlu Popperovi jako zakladateli kritického racionalismu a doplňuje svérázné české pojetí Otakara A. Fundy, který pozice Alberta a Poppera dokázal obohatit o zdánlivě protichůdné, existenciální aspekty.

The Philosophy of Modern Song is Bob Dylan's first book of new writing since 2004's Chronicles: Volume One - and since winning the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2016. Dylan, who began working on the book in 2010, offers a masterclass on the art and craft of songwriting. He writes over 60 essays focusing on songs by other artists, spanning from Stephen Foster to Elvis Costello, and in between ranging from Hank Williams to Nina Simone. He analyses what he calls the trap of easy rhymes, breaks down how the addition of a single syllable can diminish a song and even explains how bluegrass relates to heavy metal. These essays are written in Dylan's unique prose. They are mysterious and mercurial, poignant and profound, and often laugh-out-loud funny. And while they are ostensibly about music, they are really meditations and reflections on the human condition. Running throughout the book are nearly 150 carefully curated photos as well as a series of dream-like riffs that, taken together, resemble an epic poem and add to the work's transcendence. In 2020, with the release of his outstanding album Rough and Rowdy Ways, Dylan became the first artist to have an album hit the Billboard Top 40 in each decade since the 1960s. The Philosophy of Modern Song contains much of what he has learned about his craft in all those years and, like everything that Dylan does, it is a momentous artistic achievement.

eBook: Peter Ackroyd je jedním z předních současných britských „londýnských“ spisovatelů, který se zaměřuje na tuto metropoli, jeho historii, vývoj a identitu jak ve svých prózách, tak literatuře faktu. Jeho románový Londýn je silně idiosynkratický konstrukt, který vychází z autorových myšlenek o povaze tohoto města, ale také z jeho pojetí anglické literární senzibility obecně tak, jak je rozvíjí ve svých přednáškách i historických a literárních studiích. Jedná se o neobyčejně heterogenní město nezměrné rozmanitosti a bohatosti lidských zkušeností, nálad, emocí, aktivit a událostí, ale také nástrojů, jejichž prostřednictvím jsou (re)prezentovány a vyobrazeny. Tato heterogenita se podle Ackroyda většinou rodí mimo sídla a sféry kulturní produkce hlavního proudu a etablovaných společenských norem a konvencí, a to obzvláště v okultních praktikách, podvratných činnostech a spiknutích radikálních jedinců či skupin, nejrůznějších zločinných a podvodných činech, pochybných vědeckých experimentech, populárních dramatických rituálních a zábavných formách. Jejich neustálé střetávání se a soupeření s formami oficiálně doporučovanými a schvalovanými generují životní energii města nezbytnou pro jeho dynamické proměny a duchovní obrodu. Tato kniha představuje svět Ackroydových londýnských románů jako osobitý chronotop určený svými specifickými prostorovými a časovými vlastnostmi a jejich vzájemnou propojeností. Ačkoliv se takováto koncepce městského prostoru vzpírá kategorizaci, kniha je tematicky uspořádána na základě šesti aspektů definujících tento Londýn tak, jak je Ackroyd rozeznává: vztah mezi minulostí a přítomností města, jeho nadpřirozené projevy, jeho zločinné tendence, psychogeografické a antikvářské strategie jeho obyvatel, jeho divadelnost a jeho bytostně literární charakter.

eBook: This book targets the problems of emergence and stabilization of the earliest state bodies in the pristine statehood foci of the Old World - Egypt, Mesopotamia, India and China. Charvát takes his readers through the essential economic, political and intellectual transformations induced in those societies by their transformations into early states. The author also provides a comprehensive view over the entire range of the discussed problems, attempting to perceive the process of establishment of the earliest states of the Old World in its complexity. The book gives the word to ancient statesmen, as well as to men of religion and letters of yore, voicing their alarm in crisis situations of their states, when they feared collapse of what they understood as "civilized society". Addressing their admonitions to kings, managers, generals and, where possible, the widest circles of society, such thinkers urged their contemporaries to defend the ideals on which their civilizations wer e built. The book is addressed to all those interested in the emergence and development of humankind´s earliest states including university students of humanity disciplines.

Elon Musk was not an electric car person before he started Tesla. When it comes to improbable innovations, a legendary tech VC told Sebastian Mallaby, the future cannot be predicted, it can only be discovered. It is the nature of the venture-capital game that most attempts at discovery fail, but a very few succeed at such a scale that they more than make up for everything else.
