Between 1931 and 1935, Bertrand Russell contributed some 156 essays to the literary pages of the American newspaper New York American. These were often fun, humorous observations on the very real issues of the day, such as the Depression, the rise of Nazism and Prohibition, to more perennial themes such as love, parenthood, education and friendship. Available for the first time in the Routledge Classics series in a single volume, this pithy, provocative and often-personal collection of essays brings together the very best of Russell’s many contributions to the New York American, and proves just as engaging for today’s readers as they were in the 1930s.

Written in the late 1950s at the height of popular fascination with UFO's, Flying Saucers is the great psychologist's brilliantly prescient meditation on the phenomenon that gripped the world. A self-confessed sceptic in such matters, Jung was nevertheless intrigued, not so much by their reality or unreality, but by their psychic aspect. He saw flying saucers as a modern myth in the making, to be passed down the generations just as we have received such myths from our ancestors. In this wonderful and enlightening book Jung sees UFO's as 'visionary rumours', the centre of a quasi-religious cult and carriers of our technological and salvationist fantasies. 40 years later, with entire religions based on the writings of science fiction authors, it is remarkable to see just how right he has proved to be.

Content and Consciousness is an original and ground-breaking attempt to elucidate a problem integral to the history of Western philosophical thought: the relationship of the mind and body. In this formative work, Dennett sought to develop a theory of the human mind and consciousness based on new and challenging advances in the field that came to be known as cognitive science. This important and illuminating work is widely-regarded as the book from which all of Dennett’s future ideas developed. It is his first explosive rebuttal of Cartesian dualism and one of the founding texts of philosophy of mind.

Der dramatische Erstling Baal, der bislang als genialischer Wurf ohne Nachwirkung galt, in neuer Sicht: in drei abgeschlossenen Fassungen, die sich weitgehend vom heute bekannten Buchtext unterscheiden, spiegelt sich die Entwicklung des Dichters. Die erste Fassung, 1918 in Augsburg entstanden, ist die desillusionierende Erwiderung auf Johsts Grabbedrama Der Einsame, wobei Brecht dessen Handlungsführung teilweise übernimmt. 1919, in der zwei ten Fassung, löst er sich von dem Gegenstand seiner Polemik und kommt zur unbeengten Entfaltung einer eigenen Sprache. Für die Berliner Aufführung im Februar 1926 beschreibt Brecht in einer "dramatischen Biografie" den "Lebenslauf des Mannes Baal". Baal ist nun als Monteur in einem Autoschuppen angesiedelt; das vertraute Augsburger Milieu ist der Kälte einer technisierten Umwelt gewichen.
