Produktbeschreibung

Philosophy for Programmers: Debugging the Mind Rationalists, Empiricists, and Kant

What if philosophy were a codebase, and the great thinkers of the modern age were developers refactoring the architecture of human thought?

This book invites programmers, engineers, and technically minded readers into the heart of philosophy's most decisive debates rationalism, empiricism, and Kant's critical revolution through the lens of code, systems, and debugging.

• Descartes performs a hard reset: the cogito as the kernel that guarantees the system is alive.
• Locke builds the idea-database: the tabula rasa as an empty schema filled by experience.
• Spinoza rewrites the code of God into a single, unified runtime.
• Leibniz launches monads as windowless processes running in pre-established harmony.
• Berkeley deletes the substrate: to be is to be perceived.
• Hume stress-tests causality and crashes induction.
• Kant rebuilds the entire platform: space, time, and categories as the operating system of the mind.

Alongside serious exposition, playful skits and "laughing philosophy" sections bring these ideas to life with wit and humor. Philosophy becomes not just abstract argument, but a living code review of the human mind.

For programmers curious about philosophy, and philosophers curious about programming, this book offers a unique bridge: rigorous, accessible, and fun. By the end, you won't just know what rationalists, empiricists, and Kant argued you'll see how philosophy itself can be debugged, refactored, and run.

Autorenporträt

Eyal Avissar is a writer and thinker at the intersection of philosophy and technology. With a background in programming and a lifelong engagement with philosophy, he creates bridges between abstract ideas and practical metaphors that resonate with technical minds. His work is driven by the belief that philosophy is not just an academic subject but a toolkit for debugging the ways we think, live, and create. Philosophy for Programmers: Debugging the Mind Rationalists, Empiricists, and Kant is his first book, bringing together rigorous exposition, playful analogies, and a unique voice that makes the great systems of thought accessible, vivid, and relevant to modern readers.
