The final published book by Nobel Prize-winning author and philosopher Henri Bergson (1859-1941), La pens e et le mouvant (translated here as The Creative Mind), is a masterly autobiography of his philosophical method.
A source of inspiration for physicists as well as philosophers, Bergson\'s Introduction to Metaphysics reveals a philosophy that is always on the move, blending man\'s spiritual drive with his mastery of the material world..
And in the quest for unanswered questions, the spiritual dimension of human life and the importance of intuition must be emphasized.
With masterful skill and intensity, Bergson shows that Metaphysics and science must be rooted in experience for philosophy to become a genuine search for truth.
Until it leaves its false paths, he demonstrates, philosophy will remain only a wordy dialectic that surmounts false problems.
Through essays and lectures written between 1903 and 1923, Bergson retraces how and why he became a philosopher, and crafts a fascinating critique of philosophy itself.
