A Logician’s Perspective on the Relation Between the Mind and Body
Mentality and Modality
A recognized authority on modal logic examines the supervenience of the mental on the physical—the thesis that any mental difference requires a physical one. From a logician’s point of view, he questions not so much the truth as the significance of the supervenience thesis.

For Friedrich Nietzsche, scepticism is not mere nihilism. His philosophy takes us beyond the ‘death of God’ to a new spiritualization of life, holding out an affirmative spirit of joy in the renewal of our ‘god-creating’ power and will to honour the higher Whole.

The Ethics of Care in Times of Social and Moral Upheaval
Utopia or Reality?
Taking care means tending to our loved ones, ourselves, and the world. But in times of crisis, emergency scenarios and frenetic social changes strain our motivation to care. Do these challenges have the power to undo our sensitivities to caring for someone or something else?

Beyond Nature And Nurture
Conceiving a Better Way to Understand Genes and Memes
Why are some individuals and countries more successful than others? The nature-nurture debate is misleading. Dr. Baofu shows how the two are intertwined and reveals a tremendous future: a "post-human" world where human genes will no longer exist.

Hegel
Hovering Over the Corpse of Faith and Reason
