De rivier van HerakleitosWijsbegeerte, zei Bertrand Russell, is een hardnekkige poging om zo helder en redelijk mogelijk te denken.

Wijsbegeerte, zei Bertrand Russell, is een hardnekkige poging om zo helder en redelijk mogelijk te denken. De rivier van Herakleitos bespreekt de geschiedenis van de westerse wijsbegeerte met Russells omschrijving als rode draad. Plato, Aristoteles, Descartes, Spinoza, Popper, Rorty en vele anderen passeren de revue en worden in hun context geplaatst. Bovenal maken de auteurs duidelijk welke problemen deze filosofen bezighielden en hoe ze die probeerden op te lossen.
De ontwikkeling van de experimentele methode in de zeventiende eeuw maakte het mogelijk om veel wijsgerige problemen wetenschappelijk aan te pakken. Dat betekende niet dat de wijsbegeerte overbodig werd. Tot vandaag zijn er talloze problemen van ethische, politieke en kennistheoretische aard, waarvan men niet weet hoe men ze strikt wetenschappelijk kan oplossen. Sommigen leiden hieruit af dat onze antwoorden steeds relatief zijn. Maar het behoort net tot de taak van de filosofie op zoek te gaan naar een rationele en objectieve aanpak, ondanks het gebrek aan een wetenschappelijke methode. Tegelijk moet het wijsgerig onderzoek aantonen hoe drogredenen ontstaan, hoe kennis soms verkeerd of onvoldoende gefundeerd wordt en hoe men tot onterechte conclusies komt en verkeerde verbanden legt.
De rivier van Herakleitos beschrijft, op eigenzinnige wijze, hoe de grootste filosofen dat deden en daarbij vaak gebruikmaakten van, of zich spiegelden aan, de wiskunde en wetenschappen van hun tijd.

Etienne Vermeersch (1934) studeerde klassieke filologie en wijsbegeerte aan de Universiteit Gent. Hij doceerde er diverse filosofische vakken en was ook vicerector. Hij publiceerde ondermeer De ogen van de Panda en Van Antigone tot Dolly. In 2008 werd hij door Knack verkozen tot meest invloedrijke intellectueel in Vlaanderen.

Johan Braeckman (1965) studeerde wijsbegeerte en menselijke ecologie aan de Universiteit Gent, de Vrije Universiteit Brussel en de University of California. Hij doceert aan de Universiteit Gent en was ‘Socrates hoogleraar’ aan de Universiteit van Amsterdam. Hij publiceerde boeken over bio-ethiek, Darwin en de evolutietheorie.

Super Sturdy with hours of fun.
Color: Wild Duck, Hare, Squirrel & Alligator, Size: Small
I got the small ones that you cannot put a water bottle in. These toys have held up way better than expected. I am dog sitting a very rough with toys dog named Chunk. He tears up ever. Single. Toy my dog (Ted) has. I bought new ones just for chunk. These appealed to me with the no stuffing, They were cheaper, and have a squeaker. Everything chunk needed. They arrived on time and I thought I wasted my money. They were super soft, like too soft. They felt flimsy and weak. Like 5 minutes with chunk and they be dead. 2 hours with my dog and they would have a rip. So far 2 of them (I set two out) have lasted the whole weekend. The bunny looks very rough and disgusting, but no rips, the squeakers still work, and no random fluff everywhere. I am going to wash the bunny once chunk leaves. My very careful doggo Ted loves them too. He throws them up in the air and catches them, plays tug of war with them, and no rips. They are super sturdy. He can’t wait until Chunk leaves (chunk is 2 and Ted is 12-13) so he can play with them.

Loved it
Color: Brown/Wild Duck, Size: Large, Color: Brown/Wild Duck, Size: Large
He loved it so much, he destroyed it so we ordered another. I didn't realize that you can stick an empty water bottle inside. Again, the first one didn't last long, but he enjoyed it

Very fun interactive toy
Color: Brown/Wild Duck, Size: Medium
This toy is very versatile. There's no stuffing yet it's very soft so it can be used as a tug toy. It also makes for a fun fetch toy because it has a cavity to put a water bottle. It gives your dog something that crinkles and can be pierced when bitten and easily replaced with another empty bottle whenever necessary. That is what really makes this toy the standout of all the ones offered by Best Pet imo. I don't expect this to last forever but once my pup gets bigger we'll probably get the large size for her because there's not too many all in one fetch and tug toys at an affordable price.

Great Toy, but Big Dogs Destroy the Squeakers Fast
Color: Wild Duck, Hare, Squirrel & Alligator, Size: Large
My big dogs had the squeaker torn out in no time, but my little dog absolutely loves this toy. It’s the perfect size for her, and she carries it everywhere. Durable enough for small pups, just not tough enough for heavy chewers. Still a fun toy overall!
