Our treatise proposes to find a line of inquiry whereby we shall be able to reason from opinions that are generally accepted about every problem propounded to us, and also shall ourselves, when standing up to an argument, avoid saying anything that will obstruct us. First, then, we must say what reasoning is, and what its varieties are, in order to grasp dialectical reasoning: for this is the object of our search in the treatise before us.

Sifat Zuhud & Kesabaran Dalam Pandangan Islam
¥8.09
Merasa cukup (qanaah) terhadap apapun yang kita peroleh memang gampang-gampang susah. Ego diri, kurang bersyukur serta melihat seseorang yang lebih tinggi dan memiliki dari kita adalah penyakit-penyakit yang semestinya harus kita obati. Kendati demikian, tak sedikit pula orang-orang di sekeliling kita yang memilih untuk zuhud meski ia memiliki banyak harta, jabatan yang tinggi dan kekayaan yang tak ada habisnya. Lalu, apa definisi zuhud yang sebenarnya? Zuhud dalam sesuatu (al-zuhd fi al-sya’i) menurut bahasa artinya berpaling dari sesuatu yang bersifat duniawi karena menganggapnya hina, remeh, dan yang lebih baik adalah tidak membutuhkannya. Di dalam Alquran banyak disebutkan tentang zuhud di dunia, kabar tentang kehinaan dunia, kefanaan dan kemusnahannya yang begitu cepat, perintah memperhatikan kepentingan akhirat, dan kabar tentang kemuliaan dan keabadiannya. Jika Allah menghendaki suatu kebaikan pada diri seorang hamba, maka Dia menghadirkan di dalam hatinya bukti penguat yang membuatnya bisa membedakan hakikat dunia dan akhirat, lalu dia memprioritaskan mana yang lebih penting……

Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion
¥8.09
Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion is a philosophical work by the Scottish philosopher David Hume. Through dialogue, three philosophers named Demea, Philo, and Cleanthes debate the nature of God's existence. Whether or not these names reference specific philosophers, ancient or otherwise, remains a topic of scholarly dispute. While all three agree that a god exists, they differ sharply in opinion on God's nature or attributes and how, or if, humankind can come to knowledge of a deity. ? In the Dialogues, Hume's characters debate a number of arguments for the existence of God, and arguments whose proponents believe through which we may come to know the nature of God. Such topics debated include the argument from design—for which Hume uses a house—and whether there is more suffering or good in the world (argument from evil). ? Hume started writing the Dialogues in 1750 but did not complete them until 1776, shortly before his death. They are based partly on Cicero's De Natura Deorum. The Dialogues were published posthumously in 1779, originally with neither the author's nor the publisher's name.

The Renascence of Hebrew Literature
¥8.09

From the Translator's Note: "The modern chapter in the history of Hebrew literature herewith presented to English readers was written by Dr. Nahum Slouschz as his thesis for the doctorate at the University of Paris, and published in book form in 1902. A few years later (1906-1907), the author himself put his Essay into Hebrew, and it was brought out as a publication of the _Tushiyah_, under the title _Korot ha-Safrut ha-'Ibrit ha-Hadashah_. The Hebrew is not, however, a mere translation of the French book. The material in the latter was revised and extended, and the presentation was considerably changed, in view of the different attitude toward the subject naturally taken by Hebrew readers, as compared with a Western public, Jewish or non-Jewish."

The Vital Message
¥8.09
Work of spiritualism by the author of Sherlock Holmes. According to the Preface: "In "The New Revelation" the first dawn of the coming change has been described. In "The Vital Message" the sun has risen higher, and one sees more clearly and broadly what our new relations with the Unseen may be. As I look into the future of the human race I am reminded of how once, from amid the bleak chaos of rock and snow at the head of an Alpine pass, I looked down upon the far stretching view of Lombardy, shimmering in the sunshine and extending in one splendid panorama of blue lakes and green rolling hills until it melted into the golden haze which draped the far horizon. Such a promised land is at our very feet which, when we attain it, will make our present civilisation seem barren and uncouth. Already our vanguard is well over the pass. Nothing can now prevent us from reaching that wonderful land which stretches so clearly before those eyes which are opened to see it."

It must be understood that the present condition of affairs is no mere sudden outbreak on the part of our turbulent neighbours.
