Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Fathers and SonsPhilosophy and the Myth of Inheritance Muhammad Taha AlamPhilosophy has long been told as a family romance: fathers and sons, masters and disciples, rebels overthrowing their teachers.Plato against Aristotle, Kant against Fichte, Hegel against Marx-the lineage repeats, always male, always patrilineal. But what if this drama of patricide is not the truth, but a myth that conceals as much as it reveals?In Fathers and Sons: Philosophy and the Myth of Inheritance, Muhammad Taha Alam uncovers the hidden continuities that run beneath philosophy's most famous quarrels. Instead of murders, he finds metamorphoses; instead of ruptures, inheritances disguised as rebellion. Aristotle carries Plato inside him, Fichte radicalizes Kant, Marx translates Hegel into the language of industry.Yet the book goes further. It exposes how this myth of lineage has excluded women, queer thinkers, and outsiders from philosophy's story. Simone de Beauvoir, Hannah Arendt, Iris Murdoch, Michel Foucault - their contributions are remembered as appendices to men, when in truth they represent a different inheritance altogether. Queer disavowal, feminist transformation, postcolonial voices - these are not interruptions but fertile reimaginings of philosophy itself.Provocative and illuminating, this book challenges the myth of patricide and opens a more plural vision of philosophy - where lineage is tangled, where voices outside the family romance become central, and where thinking is not an act of killing but of renewal.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. What if life is not the exception but the rule?For centuries, science has struggled to define life. We know a tree is alive and a stone is not, yet every attempt at a clear definition collapses under scrutiny. Viruses blur the line. Machines begin to surprise us with creativity. Earth regulates its climate and oceans as though it were a body. The universe itself generates novelty across billions of years.In The Blindness of Scale: Why Life Is All That Exists, Muhammad Taha Alam argues that life is not a one-time accident but a recurring principle. At every scale of complexity, from molecules to cells, from organisms to Gaia, from planets to the cosmos, the spark of life returns. What blinds us to this truth is scale itself. Molecules cannot see the life of a cell. Cells cannot see the life of an organism. We cannot easily see the life of Earth or the universe.Drawing on science, philosophy, and myth, this book unfolds a radical vision: we live not in a dead universe punctuated by accidents of life, but in a living universe where life is the underlying reality.The journey begins with blindness, moves through the surprising vitality of machines, explores Gaia as a planetary body, expands to the living cosmos, and ends with an ethic of scale that calls us to humility and responsibility.This is not a book about philosophy alone. It is a book about belonging. To see life at all scales is to rediscover our place in a living whole, and to learn to live as if belonging truly matters. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Pain And Being: From the First Wound to the Human MindWhat if pain were not an accident of life but the first movement of existence itself?Pain And Being is a work of speculative phenomenology that begins where most philosophy ends, in the experience of suffering. Muhammad Taha Alam proposes that pain is not a defect within Being but its very origin. It is the first self-affection of reality, the moment when existence awakens from neutrality and becomes aware of itself.From this premise unfolds a complete metaphysical vision. The book traces the journey of Being from the silence of Non-Being to the emergence of matter, life, consciousness, and ethical awareness. Each stage of existence is seen as a transformation of the original wound that gave rise to reality. Through this vision, compassion and understanding are no longer sentimental virtues but metaphysical acts, expressions of the universe's own attempt to heal itself through consciousness.Written in luminous and meditative prose, Pain And Being bridges philosophy, spirituality, and phenomenology. It speaks to readers who seek a deeper understanding of existence and of the strange relationship between pain and awakening. This book invites the reader to look beyond suffering as misfortune and to see it instead as the pulse of Being, the fracture through which light first appeared and through which the human mind still remembers its origin.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The Romantic AbsolutistA Forgotten ArchetypeBy Muhammad Taha Alam"In every century, he appears-haunted by beauty, destroyed by reality."Across centuries and cultures, a certain type of character has appeared again and again in literature-restless, idealistic, and tragically unyielding. He is not the Byronic rebel, nor the sentimental dreamer. He is something rarer, and more radical: a man structured by vision, undone by reality.This book calls him the Romantic Absolutist-a figure who appears in the pages of Werther, Wuthering Heights, Le Grand Meaulnes, and The Great Gatsby, and yet is not reducible to any one of them. He is a pattern we have forgotten how to read. A hunger for the infinite in a world that no longer believes in the absolute. He wears many faces across literature-Werther's aching sincerity, Heathcliff's violent refusal, Meaulnes's nostalgic drift, Gatsby's dazzling illusion. But beneath each, the same soul stirs: a man out of joint with time, longing not for what is, but for what was possible. He does not evolve. He remembers. These figures belong to the modernist tradition-not as innovators of form, but as embodiments of its spiritual crisis: fractured selves longing for unity in a disenchanted world.In this groundbreaking literary study, Muhammad Taha Alam traces the metaphysical longing, emotional extremity, and philosophical refusal that define this type. The Romantic Absolutist does not adapt. He remembers. He refuses. And in doing so, he exposes the spiritual cost of modern life."He does not want what others want. He wants what no longer exists. And he wants it not as memory, but as presence."For those who have ever felt out of step with the world-not out of pride, but out of grief-this book is a recognition. Not a manual for living, but a map of a forgotten soul. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Why Evil Exists Muhammad Taha Alam Why does evil exist? For centuries, this question has haunted humanity, sparking debates among theologians, philosophers, and skeptics. Is evil a flaw in the cosmos, a test from God, or an inevitable force of nature? In this groundbreaking and provocative work, Muhammad Taha Alam offers a radical answer: evil is neither divine nor natural-it is a uniquely human invention. Through a sweeping exploration of history, philosophy, psychology, and modern life, Why Evil Exists argues that evil arises from humanity's extraordinary gift - and curse - of imagination. Unlike animals, bound by instinct, humans create abstractions, systems, and fictions that outstrip the natural order. From slavery to genocide, from ideologies to bureaucracies, evil is born not of necessity but of the human capacity to imagine, abstract, and dominate. Alam takes readers on a journey through the architecture of alienation, the seduction of abstractions, and the machinery of systemic harm, revealing how modern life amplifies our estrangement from nature, empathy, and immediacy. Yet, this is not a book of despair. It is a call to action - a plea to "reroot" ourselves in the rhythms of life, to tether imagination to empathy, and to reclaim the moral grounding we have lost. Brilliantly argued and deeply thought-provoking, Why Evil Exists is a bold reimagining of one of humanity's oldest questions. It challenges us to confront the shadow of our own imagination and offers a path toward a more compassionate and grounded existence. For anyone seeking to understand the origins of suffering - and how we might overcome it - this book is essential reading. Prepare to see evil, and humanity, in a whole new light.
