Synopsis
Excerpt from The Principle of Individuality and Value: The Gifford Lectures for 1911 Delivered in Edinburgh University
These lectures, however defective, at least contain the record of a very strong conviction. I feel assured that a great deal is offered us, especially in modern philosophy, Which we do not really care about and cannot seriously expect to prove. On the other hand, I am persuaded that if we critically consider what we really want and need, we shall find that it can be rationally established by a straightforward argument.
In thus maintaining that philosophy gives us the quintessence of life, I am not suggesting that the best thing in life is the pursuit of philosophy. What I mean is that the things which are most important in man's experience are also the things which are most certain to his thought. And further, I should urge, this is not an accident but inevitable, because importance and reality are sides of the same characteristic.

The Principle of Individuality and Value (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a deep philosophical exploration of the nature of reality, value, and individuality, grounded in the author's profound understanding of the human experience. The author delves into the question of how we can understand ourselves and our place in the universe by examining the fundamental principles of thought and logic. Through a series of insightful observations and thought-provoking arguments, the author challenges conventional notions of the self, the nature of the universe, and the relationship between mind and body. The book, in the tradition of great philosophical works, seeks to unveil the underlying structure of the world and our place within it by exploring the interconnectedness of individual experience with the ultimate reality, which the author terms the "Absolute." The authorââ â¢s unique perspective on these profound topics invites readers to re-examine their own understanding of the universe and the significance of human existence within it. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
