Skeptical Thinking

This book contains 6 short titles that all relate to philosophical and theoretical ideas. They are the following books: Title 1: In this guide, you will learn how the skepticism movement has evolved over the past few centuries, what it is today, how it makes complete sense and how it differs from cynicism. These things are explained in a handful of pages, but the information you can get out of this, is well worth your time. Title 2: We will also explore the concepts of criticism, parapsychology, the role of science in skepticism, and the subtle art of being positive while being skeptical. Skepticism helps us think critically and question statements and claims, which helps us get closer to the truth. Title 3: Skepticism has been criticized, ironically, and optimism has been glorified beyond all reason. There are sub-cults in the self-help industry that will judge anyone who questions the claims of gurus, and there are many people who are afraid to doubt the things they are told. Title 4: In today’s guide, we’ll discuss the nature of existentialism and nihilism, two co-existing philosophies that have embraced by many. Nietzsche and Kierkegaard play a major role in these movements, so their works will be quoted and explained. Title 5: First, the six standard themes of existentialism will be explained. This will give you more insights in what it is, and how it is sub-divided into various issues that have been thought of by the great existentialist thinkers. Next, we will clarify why gifted individuals are often struggling with depressive thoughts and existentialist questions about meaning, which is typical. Title 6: In this book, you will learn more about the lives and theories of prominent existential philosophers and theorists, such as Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Heidegger, Sartre, and others.
