Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Natural Laws and Human Hopes' is a profound philosophical investigation into the relationship between the mechanical laws of the universe and the persistent aspirations of the human spirit. Max Carl Otto addresses the tension between a scientific worldview-governed by cause and effect-and the human desire for purpose, morality, and social progress. The work serves as a cornerstone for naturalistic humanism, arguing that a realistic understanding of the natural world does not diminish human values but rather provides a more effective framework for achieving them.The text explores how the transition from theological explanations to scientific ones affects our sense of agency. Otto posits that once we accept that we live in a world of natural law, we can stop looking for supernatural intervention and instead use our intelligence to manipulate those laws for the betterment of society. 'Natural Laws and Human Hopes' is a compelling call to ground our ideals in reality, making it a vital read for students of philosophy, ethics, and the history of ideas. Otto's clear prose and optimistic outlook offer a bridge between the rigors of science and the depths of human feeling, emphasizing that our hopes are most powerful when they are informed by the truth of the world around us.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Things and Ideals: Essays in Functional Philosophy' is a profound exploration of the relationship between the material world and human values. Max Carl Otto, a significant figure in American functionalism and naturalistic humanism, presents a series of thought-provoking essays that challenge the traditional separation between facts and ideals. By advocating for a philosophy that is grounded in the realities of human experience, Otto seeks to reconcile the scientific understanding of 'things' with the ethical pursuit of 'ideals.'Throughout the work, the author examines how social and individual goals can be integrated into a coherent worldview that prioritizes human flourishing. He critiques rigid metaphysical systems and instead proposes a functional approach where philosophy serves as a practical tool for navigating life's complexities. The essays cover topics ranging from the nature of truth and morality to the role of religion in a modern, scientific age. This collection remains an essential text for those interested in the development of American pragmatism and the search for meaning in a secular world. Otto's clear prose and rigorous intellect make 'Things and Ideals' a landmark contribution to 20th-century ethical thought.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
