Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a discussion of books and their significance in human existence. The author argues that books are more like baskets than they are vessels, as they bring various contents to the mind and have no worth of their own without these contents. The author divides all these content…s into three primary categories: Knowledge of the Past, Knowledge of the Present, and Poetry. The first two are self-explanatory and comprise history, science, and a great many other fields. Poetry represents all the contents of books that appeal to the imagination and emotions, from imaginative literature to music and philosophy. The author discusses at length the importance of these contents and how they have accumulated to form the vast intellectual heritage of humanity that is entirely accessible to all of us through books, hence the metaphor of books as ships traveling across the great seas of Time. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
