General Critique of Philosophy
Philosophy has shaped civilizations, structured societies, and influenced human thought for millennia. General Critique of Philosophy offers a comprehensive examination of philosophical traditions, analyzing their strengths, contradictions, and lasting impact.
From the metaphysical inquiries of Ancient Philosophy to the intellectual rigor of Medieval Scholasticism, the book explores how different systems sought to define reality, knowledge, and ethics. It critiques the internal conflicts of Rationalism and Empiricism, the speculative excesses of German Idealism, the radical skepticism of Existentialism, and the self-defeating nature of Postmodernism. Political philosophies—ranging from Marxism to modern ideological movements—are also scrutinized for their practical and logical limitations etc.
The book does not limit itself to Western thought. It delves into Non-Western philosophies, including Indian, Chinese, Persian, and African traditions, analyzing their evolution and challenges in the modern world. It also addresses contemporary issues, questioning whether AI, transhumanism, and new philosophical trends can escape the errors of the past.
More than just a critique, General Critique of Philosophy invites the reader to engage deeply with philosophical thought—questioning not only the ideas of history but also the future of human reason itself.
