Jan Faye: The Biological and Social Dimensions of Human Knowledge
The purpose of this book is to demonstrate that natural selection has adapted human sense impressions to deliver reliable information without meeting the traditional commitments for having knowledge. In connection with memory, sensory and bodily information provides an animal with experiential knowledge. Experiential knowledge helps an animal to navigate its environment. Moreover, experiential knowledge has different functions depending on whether the deliverance of information stems from the organism’s external or internal senses.

Jesus Pedro Bonilla Zamora: La nada nadea
Nihilism (the thesis that existence lacks an absolute, transcendent or objective value) is supposed to be the dominant philosophy of our time, but very few philosophers have expressly defended it. This book explains in accessible language the meanings of nihilism and its historical evolution, and shows why its main manifestations (atheism, ethical relativism, determinism and relativism) are extremely reasonable. The book ends by proposing a "friendly nihilism." More info

Valentin Bazhanov: A.V. Vasiliev. Nikolai I. Lobachevsky (1792 - 1856).
This book is the most complete scientific biography of N.I. Lobachevsky, which was prepared for thirty years by the prominent Russian mathematician A.V. Vasiliev (1853-1929). Its circulation was completely destroyed by the Soviet censorship in 1927. The proofreading miraculously preserved. It was found in 1990, which made it possible to recreate this book. It describes Lobachevsky's life and scientific work: his discovery of non-Euclidean geometry, his work in analysis, applied mathematics, and astronomy. His interests in philosophy, logic, pedagogy, as well as his activities as rector of Kazan University discussed.

Valentin Bazhanov: Cultural Brain – Neuroscience – Mathematics.
The book considers the system "brain-culture-society" through the prism of the Kantian research program in modern neuroscience. It is shown that the interaction of the elements of this system and numerous feedbacks between them lead to the formation of a "cultural (social)" brain, whose features at the level of mass phenomena in turn predetermine certain features of culture. The intertwining of natural and sociocultural trajectories of human development, which analyzed in the context of naturalism and sociocentrism, leads to the idea of the possibility of their synthesis and the unity of the foundations of proto-mathematical, mathematical and artistic cognitive abilities. These points illustrated with examples from logic, mathematics, biology and musical creativity.

AIPS a été créée en 1947 par un religieux dominicain belge, le Père Stanislas Dockx, philosophe et théologien mais aussi physicien et mathématicien, soucieux de synthèse et de critique épistémologique.
Le but de l'Académie Internationale de Philosophie des Sciences est de tenter de faire synthèse sur des questions essentielles de philosophie des sciences, en interdisciplinarité, au-delà de tous les clivages (nationaux, linguistiques, institutionnels, d'options philosophiques), dans un esprit de recherche libre et exigeante, dont on partage les résultats en vue d'un débat critique et intellectuellement fructueux, dans un cadre favorisant le contact personnel et cordial entre chercheurs.
