About the Book
An Organon is an instrument of thought (look that up in your Funk & Wagnall.) These volumes will lead you through a manifold number of concepts and, whether one thinks them valid or not, will nevertheless cause one to ponder the philosophical moral and economic conditions of life in these times. These insights might not be to one's taste, might even positively revolt one but they will be a robust sounding board by which one might project one's own thoughts about the various aspects of life. Such items might be, but not limited to the following:-
First and second most basic questions in all of philosophy.
Nature of knowledge.
Dialectics in the process of cognition.
Philosophic categores plainly set out.
The Estate system of nomenclature and the reason for its elucidation.
State power. How they get it, who wields it, and to what purpose.
The concepts of truth, absolute, objective, subjective, half-truths and lies.
The concept of finding a rigid criterion of truth and how it operates.
Metaphysical whimsical concepts are fully discussed.
Materialist conceptions of history and economics are illustrated.
The kernel of morality and its enveloping rindlucent.
Dual nature of morality and the ethical codes, civil and criminal laws that attempt to, and often do, sway the very kernel of morality.
Moral aspects of life and their tie in with the animals.
Moral aspects of life and their validity on the value-added continuum.
Material production.
Historical aspects of life and their connection to philosophy, morality and economics.
Economic and monetary aspects of life and national bank manipulations.
