  • Der Sinn des Lebens und andere psychologische Schriften.

    by Andrej Poleev
    Ist das nicht der Unsinn, der uns alle bedroht und gefährdet? Das ist eine rhetorische Frage, und sie weist schon auf die Antwort hin: Die Fälle und die Erscheinungsformen von Ordnungswahn sind in Deutschland zahlreich und vielfältig infolge der Institutionalisierung des Wahns, weswegen Zwangsvorstellungen und Zwangshandlungen dieser Art nicht als therapiebedürftige Zwangsstörungen gelten, und jegliche Versuche, die Tendenz umzukehren, abgewehrt werden. Lernunfähigkeit und Unbeeinflußbarkeit sch... more
  • Exorcism

    by Andrej Poleev
    Exorcism is (1) the act of driving out, or warding off, demons, or evil spirits, from persons, places, or things, which are believed to be possessed or infested by them, or are liable to become victims or instruments of their malice; (2) the means employed for this purpose, especially the solemn and authoritative adjuration of the demon, in the name of God, or any of the higher power in which he is subject. Toner, Patrick. Exorcism. The Catholic Encyclopedia, vol. 5. New York: Robert Appleton Co... more
  • De amore

    by Andrej Poleev
    Отвечая на вопрос о природе любви, невозможно обойти вниманием формы её проявления: дружбу, дружелюбие, союз, мир. Универсальность любви является отражением космического устройства, в котором всё присходит из взаимодействия, совершающегося в микрокосмосе. Химическая связь атомов при их молекулярной ассоциации или ассоциативная связь понятий в ментальном пространстве имеют одинаковые основания - реализацию вещественности при топологическом преобразовании изомерного пространства. Несмотря на то, ч... more
  • В начале было Слово

    by Андрей Полеев
    Сборник эссе о логике и логическом мышлении.
  • Causal classification of diseases

    by Andrej Poleev
    „Errors are the greatest obstacles to the progress of science; to correct such errors is of more practical value than to achieve new knowledge,“ asserted Eugen Bleuler. Basic error of several prevailing classification schemes of pathological conditions, as for example ICD-10, lies in confusing and mixing symptoms with diseases, what makes them unscientific. Considering the need to bring order into the chaos and light into terminological obscureness, I introduce the Causal classification of disea... more
  • Metaanalysis of psychoanalysis

    by Andrej Poleev

  • Physics: A Science in Quest of an Ontology

    by Wolfgang Smith
    To the extent that modern physics possesses an ontology at all, it has tended to be the Cartesian doctrine of “bifurcation.” Not only, however, does this thesis prove to be untenable, but since the advent of quantum theory it has rendered physics de facto incomprehensible. This book introduces an astoundingly uncomplicated and inherently Platonist ontology in which the quantum theoretic stratum assumes its rightful place within the hierarchy of being.
