Use your imagination ! The demand is as important as it is confusing. What is the imagination? What is its value? Where does it come from ? And where is it going in a time when even the obscene seems overdone and passé ?This book takes up these questions and argues for the centrality of imagination in human cognition. It traces the development of the imagination in Kant's critical philosophy (particularly the Critique of Aesthetic Judgment) and claims that the insights of Kantian aesthetic theory, especially concerning the nature of creativity, common sense, and genius, influenced the development of nineteenth-century American philosophy.The book identifies the central role of the imagination in the philosophy of Peirce, a role often overlooked in analytic treatments of his thought. The final chapters pursue the observation made by Kant and Peirce that imaginative genius is a type of natural gift (ingenium) and must in some way be continuous with the creative force of nature. It makes this final turn by way of contemporary studies of metaphor, embodied cognition, and cognitive neuroscience.

Hiking with Nietzsche: Becoming Who You Are is a tale of two philosophical journeys - one made by John Kaag as an introspective young man of nineteen, the other seventeen years later, in radically different circumstances: he is now a husband and father, and his wife and small child are in tow. Kaag sets off for the Swiss peaks above Sils Maria where Nietzsche wrote his landmark work Thus Spoke Zarathustra. Both of Kaag's journeys are made in search of the wisdom at the core of Nietzsche's philosophy, yet they deliver him to radically different interpretations and, more crucially, revelations about the human condition.

Hiking with Nietzsche is a tale of two philosophical journeys in the Swiss Alps in Nietzsche's footsteps: one made by John Kaag as an introspective teenager, the other seventeen years later as a husband and father, with his wife and small child in tow. As he hikes, Kaag considers not only Nietzsche's ideals but how his philosophy relates to us in the 21st century. And he finds that the process of climbing and the inevitable missteps give you the chance, in Nietzsche's words, to 'become who you are'.
