Programmable Heuristics Will Be Available as a Book!!!

PROGRAMMABLE HEURISTICS AND --> BIG IDEAS!,


This text is now available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/1548187380/

BOOK DESCRIPTION

This is the long-awaited text edition of Coppedge’s valuable philosophical heuristics, designed to aid programmers (and everyone else!) in all matters of knowledge. The contents may be beneficial for economists, programmers, machine learning, and even for political advisory and more common tasks like philosophy and creative writing. This is truly a treasure trove for heuristic analysis! Included at the end are eight or so writings on big ideas to give needed perspective and clarify problems, as well as provide a little education.

FROM THE INTRODUCTION

Alan Hájek, who earned his PhD. in philosophy at Princeton in 1993, argues that “philosophy has a variety of heuristics” (1). And goes on to say that “such heuristics can enhance one’s ability to make creative contributions to philosophy.” (1). As recently as 1972, Karl Popper did not even consider philosophical objectivity (in other words, progress) possible. He writes: “From a rational point of view, we should not ‘rely’ on any theory, for no theory has been shown to be true, or can be shown to be true.” (Popper 21). This is a strange absoluteness to hold, which must be self-contradictory. Typology, which is perhaps the closest to realizing coherence outside of mathematics, emerged as recently as the 1870s (145 years ago) with Charles Peirce. (“This theory  of meaning (‘speculative grammar’) was to provide foundations for his writings in logic” OCP). Nicholas Rescher’s book (1973), dates work on coherence somewhat more recently. However, not all heuristics involve coherence. I have made an effort to include anything that might be helpful to my readers.

New Release!



GOLDEN AGES OF PHILOSOPHY: CONTRIBUTIONS TO CLASSICAL AND NEO-CLASSICAL PHILOSOPHY

Very likely the most comprehensive work on the history of philosophy around the world, and the only one of its kind, this writing gives extensive evidence of human thought throughout history. The author's hope is to bridge a gap in history of philosophy, and dispel the myth of a philosophical Dark Age. Coppedge has interpolated a multitude of philosophers using special techniques: there are systems and aphorisms by Plato, Socrates, Aristotle, Thales, Anaximander, Anaximenes, Pythagoras, Xenophanes, Heraclitus, Protagoras and other Sophists, Zeno, Pyrrho, Epictetus, Locke, Kant, Novalis, Wittgenstein, Chinese philosophers, and numerous others. A significant part of the work is dedicated to highly contemporary philosophy, always in a readable, abbreviated form. This work, dedicated to an above all technical and useful, thus, meta-modern approach to history, will dazzle with its combination intelligence and wisdom.







 It is now available on Amazon! https://www.amazon.com/Golden-Ages-Philosophy-Contributions-Neo-Classical/dp/1542371473/

Wait until April 9th, 2018 for the updated 806 page edition!!!

The Structure of Philosophical Revolutions

Forthcoming book! This is a book I wrote in an afternoon (this afternoon), to fill in missing gaps in Thomas Paine.

BOOK DESCRIPTION

Coppedge considers what is missing from a common sense idea of government by interpreting the first two books of Paine’s Common Sense for figments of an underlying technocratic idea. Weaving in glimpses of technical jargon from his own coherentist philosophy, he addresses an idea of modular government which accepts economic and technological success and the meaningful interests of its citizens as the standard of progress, both for the citizen, and for the governments role as a corporation of citizens. The result is democratic and poetic, and also futuristic.  It is both political philosophy and an idea of philosophy’s ultimate importance.

[BT] IT'S CONNNN

I have a suspicion that the following statements may have been made about my books by bookstore employees:

"Marketing is just marketing with Nathan Coppedge. It doesn't require any extra work. It just requires a book on a shelf".

"Every book we buy from Nathan Coppedge we also sell".

"Nathan doesn't require marketing except online. Every book we make available leaves the shelf. What could be wrong with this guy?".

"I begin to think we should hire more self-published authors. Then I realize, it's Nathan and that's it. He's a vast exception to the rule. I'm borrowing his language."

There is a link to my author profile HERE.
