1001 Ideas That Changed the Way We Think Tapa dura - 2013
de Robert Arp (Editor)
Resumen
From Democracy to Cultural Revolution, Courtly Love to Survival of the Fittest, and KantâÈçs Enlightenment to the Oedipus Complex, here are the big ideas that have revolutionized our world. 1001 Ideas That Changed the Way We Think offers a wealth of stimulation and amusement for any reader with a curious mind, showing how once-radical propositions have become accepted truths.
Besides the great, eternal questions (how was the universe created and what is the place of humans within it? How should a person live? And how can we build a just society?), 1001 Ideas That Changed the Way We Think also includes a host of hypotheses that are remarkable for their sheer audacityâÈ'from the concept of the transmigration of souls to parallel universes and the theoretical paradoxes of time travel. Discover the mathematical proof of the existence of life in other galaxies, and relearn inspiring ideas ranging from GandhiâÈçs theory of civil disobedience to Mary WollstonecraftâÈçs groundbreaking advocacy of womenâÈçs rights.
Abounding with quotations and more than 900 full-color, gorgeous illustrations, this is both an in-depth history of ideas and a delightfully accessible popular reference.
