1987 Trade paperback edition of Ten Philosophical Mistakes by Mortimer J Adler 200 pages. In this delightfully lucid and accessible book, Mortimer J Adler, America's foremost philosopher, explores the ten errors in the development of modern thought, and examines the serious consequences they have in our everyday lives. This book is ideal for intellectually curious readers who enjoy clear, accessible critiques of modern philosophical thought—especially those interested in how abstract ideas shape everyday life.
This book invites readers to examine foundational errors in modern philosophy that, according to Adler, have led to widespread confusion in areas like consciousness, truth, ethics, and freedom. Perfect for lifelong learners, educators, and students of philosophy, this book appeals to those who appreciate Aristotelian and Thomistic reasoning and want to understand how philosophical missteps influence culture, education, and personal belief systems. Adler’s conversational tone and structured approach make complex ideas approachable, making it especially valuable for readers who feel alienated by academic jargon but still want to engage deeply with philosophical questions. Whether you're a seasoned thinker or just beginning to explore the roots of Western thought, this book offers clarity, challenge, and a compelling call to rethink what we take for granted.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    When I order a magazine are you sending me just the cover?

    While we are aware that some sellers sell only the covers (for framing), we sell you the entire magazine.

    Do you ship internationally?

    Yes, we do. It depends the country's restrictions and the shipping availability to that county.

    Where did you get your name?

    On some mornings, if you get up early enough, from an open field you can see the fog listing up towards the local mountains. Just as the sun starts to creep in, the fog gives off this bluish purplish haze.

    Are you open 24/7?

    We are e-commerce only so we are open 24 hours 7 days a week. However, we only staff humans and they work a normal business day.

    How do you select your month charity?

    We try to select a local nonprofit that we feels helps others and gives back to our community. Or ones that do not get the donations that other big nonprofits receive.

    Gift wrapping and packaging

    While we do not gift-wrap an item, if you advise us it is a gift, we package the item as we normally do and then place it in a decorative polymailer. We also add your note to an all-occasion card and insert it. We do this free-of-charge.

    Are you an American Company?

    We are an American women-owned company located in the lovely Hudson Valley area of New York State. All shipments are from New York State.

    Do you offer a discount?

    We do offer a 10% discount. If your purchase does not include one of our discount codes, please contact us prior to paying and we will send you the code. The code cannot be used after you paid. Also every month we put a different book genre on sale.

    Do you offer a guaranteed delivery date?

    No, we do not. We can give you an estimated date. We ship via the US Postal System. Unfortunately, we do not have any control over your order once it leaves out hands. All orders include tracking. If your order takes longer than normal for delivery, we will investigate it.

    I purchased "X" magazine subscription. How come I didn't get it?

    Because you didn't order it from us. You need to contact the publishing company. If you need help locating them, we will try to help. We only sell single issue magazines.
