  • Challenging the Status Quo

    by Paul Breer Ph.D. ...
    In Blueprint for World Peace, I argue for an overhaul of our global political structure which in its present state appears helpless to prevent the storm clouds of hostility from erupting into WWIII. The short-run solution lies in improving the relationship between the U.S. and China; the long-term solution requires something more serious---changing the way we perceive people from cultures “other” ...

  • Criminal Justice and Free-Will

    by Paul Breer Ph.D. ...
    For centuries Americans have endorsed a pure form of free-will that holds us responsible for most of our actions---and that includes decisions to break the law. When a belief in free-will takes center stage, our theorizing about why individuals commit crimes blinds us to the importance of background factors such as the genes we are born with and the socio-cultural environment in which we are ...

  • Dealing with the Unfairness of Life

    by Paul Breer Ph.D ...
    Life is not fair. That is one of the oldest truths in the world, though it has worn many names—luck, fate, destiny, and chance. Some of us are born into wealth and security, while others are born into deprivation so deep that even survival is uncertain. The circumstances of our birth—geography, family, health, opportunity—all shape the boundaries of what is possible long before we have any say in ... Read more

  • Blueprint for World Peace

    by Paul Breer Ph.D. ...
    When we take a broad view of Homo sapiens history, one of the most obvious things we see is the disjunct between the progress we have made in science, technology, and the arts on the one hand, and the way we treat people from cultures different from our own on the other. While that is troubling in the way we behave toward citizens of our own country, it rises to a dangerous level in our attitudes ... Read more

  • Walk on Water

    by Paul Breer Ph.D. ...
    When seen through the lens of classical physics (the 17th- and 18th-century physics of Newton and Galileo), miraculous events like curing a friend's cancer without medical help, walking on water, or moving physical objects with your mind alone are considered violations of basic physical laws and regarded as the work of gods and goddesses in heaven. We know better today.When we view the same events ... Read more

  • The Spontaneous Self

    Viable Alternatives to Free Will

    by Paul Breer ...
    Many philosophers have argued that free will may be no more than a flattering illusion. Few have gone on, however, to spell out what life would be like without that illusion. In The Spontaneous Self Dr. Breer explores the many ways in which our everyday experience is likely to be affected by giving up a belief in free will. Topics include guilt, pride, credit, blame, ambition, fear, identity, ... Read more

  • Beyond Self-Realization

    A Non-Sectarian Path to Enlightenment

    by Paul Breer ...
    Beyond Self-Realization In his previous book on philosophy (The Spontaneous Self), the author argued that the concept of free will is an illusion while detailing what it might imply for our thoughts, feelings, and behavior to dispel that belief. The present volume takes the argument further. With equal emphasis on theory and practice, it illustrates how giving up one’s identity as a free-willing ... Read more
