An Idealist View of Life. By S. Radhakrishnan. Published by HarperCollins. 2012. ISBN-10: 8172238444. ISBN-13: 978-8172238445. New 5.1 x 1 x 7.8 inches softcover. 361 Pages. Index. SUMMARY: Science is a system of second causes, which cannot describe the world adequately, much less account for it. In this remarkable treatise, Radhakrishnan explores aspects of the modern intellectual debate on science vis-à-vis religion and the vain attempts to find a substitute for religion. He discusses, drawing upon the traditions of East and West, the nature and validity of religious experience. Finally, he creates a fine vision of man's evolution and the emergence of higher values. The range of subjects combined with the author's own faith, undogmatic and free of creed, makes this book a philosophical education in itself. ----$ 2.00 Shipping within USA. ---- [inv.laf.12] --- SALE ENDS MAY 15, 2024
