"How the World Thinks"

Post by RWStanding »

How the World Thinks
How the World Thinks, by Julian Baggini, 2018. A Global History of Philosophy.
Its particular interest to me is that it reinforces my tripartite view of the world, as expressed in this website.
The Atomised Self equates with my end value of Anarchism or as otherwise expressed.
No-self, equates with society as a Tyranny or servile state.
The Relational Self, equates with my end value of Altruism.
The end-values expressed in terms that suit various ethical-political purposes.
A fourth end-value or anti-value would be chaos as the destruction of self.

How about a synopsis of the original that we can contrast your formulation with?
