Global Minds: Ethics of Knowing Volume IV of the Global Mind Series

In this fourth installment of the acclaimed Global Mind series, Global Minds: Ethics of Knowing invites readers into a rich philosophical journey through eight towering thinkers who reshaped how we understand truth, freedom, morality, and the human condition. From Kant's rigorous duty-bound ethics to Sartre's radical existential freedom, this volume explores the ethical dimensions of knowledge-how we know, why it matters, and what responsibilities come with it.

Each chapter offers a vivid portrait of a philosopher's life, major works, and enduring ideas, while weaving their contributions into broader questions of autonomy, justice, and historical consciousness. Readers will encounter:

• Immanuel Kant, whose transcendental idealism and categorical imperative laid the foundation for modern moral philosophy.
• Jeremy Bentham, architect of utilitarianism and legal reform, who measured ethics by the calculus of pleasure and pain.
• John Stuart Mill, champion of liberty and qualitative happiness, who balanced individual freedom with democratic responsibility.
• René Descartes, the father of modern rationalism, who sought certainty through methodic doubt and the cogito.
• Karl Popper, defender of the open society, who redefined science through falsifiability and critical rationalism.
• G.W.F. Hegel, master of dialectics, who saw history as the unfolding of freedom through contradiction and synthesis.
• Søren Kierkegaard, the first existentialist, who explored faith, anxiety, and the struggle to become a self.
• Jean-Paul Sartre, philosopher of radical freedom, who challenged us to live authentically and take full responsibility for our choices.

Written with clarity and emotional resonance, Ethics of Knowing bridges biography, philosophy, and cultural reflection. It is ideal for readers seeking not just to understand ideas, but to engage with them-ethically, personally, and globally.

Whether you are a student of philosophy, a seeker of meaning, or a lover of deep thought, this volume offers a compelling invitation: to think critically, live deliberately, and become part of the global conversation on what it means to know-and to care.
