BOOK EXCERPT:
"The Five Great Philosophies of Life" is a book by then President of Bowdoin College, William de Witt Hyde. He writes, "When asked why some men with moderate talents and meagre technical equipment succeed, where others with greater ability and better preparation fail; why some women with plain features and few accomplishments charm, while others with all the advantages of beauty and cultivation repel, we are wont to conceal our ignorance behind the vague term personality. Undoubtedly the deeper springs of personality are below the threshold of consciousness, in hereditary traits and early training. Still some of the higher elements of personality rise above this threshold, are reducible to philosophical principles, and amenable to rational control. The purpose of this book is to let the masters of these sane and wholesome principles of personality talk to us in their own words; with just enough of comment and interpretation to bring us to their points of view, and make us welcome their friendly assistance in the philosophical guidance of life."

George Santayana in this book talks about the soul of German philosophy – Egotism. He considered it as a subjectivity in thought and willfulness in morals which is by no means a gratuitous thing. It discusses the pathetic situation that German philosophy has inculcated in its people.

BOOK EXCERPT:
This is a collection of essays written at various times and for various objects. In this book, it will be found that the first three essays belong to the class described as Pleas, and the last three more or less to that of Discussions. The author of this book pleads that: The Scientific Spirit of the Age, while it has given us many precious things, is, in its present exorbitant development, depriving us of things more precious still. The Education of the Emotions (to be carried on chiefly through the contagion of good and noble sentiments) is an object of paramount importance, albeit nearly ignored in ordinary systems of education. With the present disintegration of all religious opinion, Judaism may yet become a progressive, and cease to be merely a tribal, faith; and, if it absorbs the moral and spiritual essence of Christianity, it may solve the great problem of combining a theology consonant to modern philosophy with worship hallowed by the sacred associations of the remotest past. In the last three essays, the author discusses: The relation of Knowledge to Happiness The real—as distinguished from the conventional—character of our common processes of Thought The respective claims of Town and Country Life to be esteemed most healthy and felicitous for body and mind.

BOOK EXCERPT:
As the crowd stood and applauded for the neurophysiologist Du Bois-Reymond’s lecture on August 14, 1872, they did not know that his lecture on the seven riddles of the universe would be long remembered. Scientists at the time believed that science could unlock all of the mysteries of the universe. However, the scientific revolution of the early 20th century fueled by relativity and quantum mechanics would upend the scientific world confirming Du Bois-Reymond’s insights. This book explores the brilliance of Du Bois-Reymond’s life and work and a vastly expanded scientific understanding of these riddles through the modern disciplines of physics, chemistry, and biology. Despite the progress, underlying metaphysical notions still haunt the riddles. Utilizing notions from Whitehead’s Process Philosophy, the author delves into the underlying structure of our universe and outlines the nature of the deity that emerges. Part two of this book examines the riddles consequent demands on theology and religion through the lens of the extraordinary teacher, philosopher, and theologian William DeWitt Hyde. The author clarifies notions about miracles, immortality, and wisdom. This book takes the reader on a vivid, imaginative journey towards unraveling the mysteries of our existence, roles in society, and personal loyalties.
