Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The Unrealists' is a sharp and engaging critique of the major philosophical and scientific figures who shaped the early 20th century. Written with Harvey Wickham's trademark wit and intellectual rigor, the work examines the theories of prominent thinkers such as William James, Henri Bergson, George Santayana, Albert Einstein, and Bertrand Russell. Wickham argues that these 'unrealists' led the modern mind away from objective truth and common sense toward a world of abstraction and relativism.The book delves into the impact of pragmatism, evolutionism, and the new physics on the human understanding of reality. By analyzing the contradictions within modern thought, Wickham attempts to restore a sense of grounded realism to the philosophical discourse of his time. This volume serves as both a historical snapshot of the intellectual climate of the 1930s and a timeless exploration of the tensions between traditional metaphysics and modern skepticism. Readers interested in the history of philosophy, the development of modern science, and the defense of objective reality will find 'The Unrealists' to be a thought-provoking and spirited defense of human reason.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. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The Misbehaviorists' is a sharp and provocative critique of the leading psychological and scientific movements of the early twentieth century. Written by Harvey Wickham, the work examines the rise of behaviorism, psychoanalysis, and various forms of modern materialism that were reshaping the understanding of the human mind and soul. Through a series of analytical essays, Wickham scrutinizes the theories of prominent figures such as John B. Watson, Sigmund Freud, Alfred Adler, and William McDougall, challenging their conclusions and the broader social implications of their work.The book explores the tension between traditional views of human nature and the emerging 'scientific' approaches that sought to reduce human experience to biological impulses and conditioned reflexes. Wickham employs a witty and often skeptical tone to address the perceived shortcomings of these modern ideologies, arguing against the dehumanizing effects of strict determinism. As a significant historical document in the field of intellectual history, 'The Misbehaviorists' provides an insightful look into the cultural and philosophical debates surrounding the birth of modern psychology. It remains a compelling resource for readers interested in the history of science, philosophy, and the evolution of psychological 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.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The Misbehaviorists, Pseudo-Science and the Modern Temper' is a sharp-witted and provocative critique of the behavioral psychology and scientific skepticism that gained prominence in the early 20th century. Written during a period of rapid intellectual shift, Harvey Wickham takes aim at the influential thinkers of his era, including John B. Watson, Sigmund Freud, and Albert Edward Wiggam. Through a blend of humor, irony, and philosophical rigor, Wickham examines the modern temper and its tendency to reduce complex human experience to mere biological or mechanistic functions.The work challenges the notion that traditional morality and human agency have been rendered obsolete by the new sciences of the day. Wickham argues that much of what is presented as objective, empirical truth is actually a form of pseudo-science that ignores the deeper realities of the human spirit. By dissecting the popular theories of the 1920s, the author provides a spirited defense of common sense and humanism against the rising tide of scientific determinism. 'The Misbehaviorists, Pseudo-Science and the Modern Temper' serves as a significant historical document, capturing the intellectual backlash against materialism and providing a fascinating look at the development of psychological thought and its impact on modern society.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. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The Unrealists' is a sharp and provocative critique of the most influential thinkers of the early twentieth century. Author Harvey Wickham examines the philosophical landscapes shaped by figures such as William James, Henri Bergson, George Santayana, Albert Einstein, Bertrand Russell, John Dewey, Samuel Alexander, and Alfred North Whitehead. Through a series of analytical essays, Wickham challenges the modern departure from traditional realism, arguing that these prominent intellectuals-whom he labels the unrealists-have led human thought into a maze of subjectivity and abstraction.The work delves into various domains, from the psychological pragmatism of James to the relativistic physics of Einstein and the logical atomism of Russell. Wickham provides a contemporary perspective on the intellectual shifts that defined the era, questioning the foundations of new physics and the evolving definitions of truth and reality. This volume serves as an essential primary source for understanding the critical reactions to the rise of modernism in philosophy and science. It remains a valuable resource for students of intellectual history and those interested in the ideological debates that shaped the transition from nineteenth-century certainties to the complexities of the modern world.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. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The Impuritans' offers a sharp and provocative critique of the literary and intellectual landscape of the early 20th century. In this insightful work, Harvey Wickham examines the rise of modern sensibilities through the lens of influential figures such as James Joyce, D.H. Lawrence, Marcel Proust, and Havelock Ellis. Positioning these authors as the new 'Pilgrim Fathers' of a shifting cultural world, Wickham explores the departure from traditional moral frameworks and the embrace of realism, psychoanalysis, and uninhibited expression.Written with wit and a keen eye for social shifts, the book provides a contemporary perspective on the radical changes sweeping through Western literature and philosophy during the interwar period. Wickham scrutinizes the works of James Branch Cabell, H.L. Mencken, and Sherwood Anderson, among others, to illustrate how a new generation of writers redefined the boundaries of art and decency. 'The Impuritans' remains an essential resource for those interested in the history of literary modernism, the development of the 20th-century novel, and the evolving standards of cultural criticism.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
