Alexander Broadie, "Scottish Philosophy in the Seventeenth Century "
English | ISBN: 0198769849 | 2020 | 256 pages | PDF | 19 MB
During the seventeenth century Scots produced many high quality philosophical writings, writings that were very much part of a wider European philosophical discourse. Yet today Scottish philosophy of the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries is widely studied, but that of the seventeenth century is only now beginning to receive the attention it deserves. This volume begins by placing the seventeenth-century Scottish philosophy in its political and religious contexts, and then investigates the writings of the philosophers in the areas of logic, metaphysics, politics, ethics, law, and religion. It is demonstrated that in a variety of ways the Scottish Reformation impacted on the teaching of philosophy in the Scottish universities. It is also shown that until the second half of the century-and the arrival of Descartes on the Scottish philosophy curriculum-the Scots were teaching and developing a form of Reformed orthodox scholastic philosophy, a philosophy that shared many features with the scholastic Catholic philosophy of the medieval period. By the early eighteenth century Scotland was well placed to give rise to the spectacular Enlightenment that then followed, and to do so in large measure on the basis of its own well-established intellectual resources. Among the many thinkers discussed are Reformed orthodox, Episcopalian, and Catholics philosophers including George Robertson, George Middleton, John Boyd, Robert Baron, Mark Duncan, Samuel Rutherford, James Dundas (first Lord Arniston), George Mackenzie, James Dalrymple (Viscount Stair), and William Chalmers.

The GMAT Quant section is all about your math basics, and about practice.You can either ace the test by understanding the basic principles really really well, or by solving thousands of problems from every chapter.Thankfully, this book offers both options. Averages, weighted averages, and sums make up a good chunk of the math problems on the GMAT - up to 15% in some cases. This exercise book divides the *averages* problems on the GMAT into more than ten kinds, and builds up your skills from the ground up. It is also unique because you can jump in anywhere: if you already have a strong foundation in the field, you can start at a later chapter, so that you can challenge yourself.If you solve even half of the problems in this book, this will mean (pun intended) that you are an expert on any question on averages that the test throws at you; you will be completely prepared for more than a tenth of the all-important quant section that will get you into the biggest business schools in the world. The book contains enough material to keep you occupied for a hundred hours or more, depending on how much practice you need.Let's get started! You might be ready to start learning all about averages, but you will be anything but average once you're finished.
