{"product_id":"philosophy-begins-in-wonder-pzster-losonczi-9780227173725","title":"Philosophy Begins in Wonder: An Introduction to Early Modern Philosophy Theology and Science","description":"Philosophy begins with wonder, according to Plato and Aristotle. Yet Plato and Aristotle did not expand a great deal on what precisely wonder is. Does this fact alone not raise curiosity in us as to why this passion or concept is important? What is wonder's role in science, philosophy, or theology except to end thinking or theorizing as soon as one begins? The primary purpose of this book is to show how seventeenth- and eighteenth-century developments in natural theology, metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, aesthetics, and the philosophy of science resulted in a complex history of the passion of wonder-a history in which the elements of continuation, criticism, and reformulation are equally present. Philosophy Begins in Wonder provides the first historical overview of wonder and changes the way we see early modern Europe. It is intended for readers who are curious-who wonder-about how modern philosophy and science were born. The book is for scholars and educated readers alike.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Péter Losonczi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0227173724\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780227173725\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e James Clarke Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/27\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 390\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 5.90w x 1.00d","brand":"Péter Losonczi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48871491797247,"sku":"9780227173725","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/philosophy-begins-in-wonder-pzster-losonczi-9780227173725","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
