Hardcover. Condición: New. To Climb Is Philosophical brings together Charles William Dailey's essays on the fallacies and dangers of scientism, mass psychological manipulation, and reductionist views of civilization and humanity, which he argues threaten the survival of philosophy as it has been practiced for millennia in both East and West. Addressing topics such as the politicization of science in "Science and Tradition," the acceptance of human existence as a low-awareness phenomenon in "Human Nature and Human Being in the Thought of Xunzi," the reduction of human populations to instinctual processes in "Gandhi on the Freedom of Indian Civilization and the Slavery of the West," and the trivialization of traditional metaphysics in favor of expanded Darwinian theories in "The Meaning of Novelty and Its Possibility in a Platonic Universe," To Climb Is Philosophical confronts many of philosophy's enduring adversaries and presents the sole path for those who seek to defend and preserve it: to Climb.…

Academics' use of racial tropes to promote 'indigenous peoples' and a religious-hued idea of 'the Environment' are clever devices for cajoling and berating the public into accepting favored interpretations of Uluru as well as nature itself.
