	Schopenhauer's The World as Will and Idea
		According to Schopenhauer, the world is the will insofar as all ideas of the world manifest the will.
		Idea as motive is not a necessary condition for the activity of the will.
		Schopenhauer explains that the will cannot properly be defined as a necessary cause of its manifestations in the phenomenal world, because it is not governed by the principle of sufficient reason.

	Yasuo Kamata: Platonic Idea and the World of Perception in Schopenhauer
		If imagination is the will's effect on the faculty of representation, then indeed the will is essentially participating in the origin and maintenance of the Platonic Idea (the generally acknowledged phantasm), though the will insofar as it is considered as the condition of the possibility of representation.
		Secondly, we have described the world as representation with respect to the condition of the possibility of the original-synthetic unity of the concrete-particular clear representation as the interaction of the Platonic Idea as archetypical phantasm and the particular representation.
		Thirdly, the will could be sketched as the condition of the possibility of the Platonic idea and insofar as the condition of the possibility of the achieved unity of the world as representation.

	The Idea of a Permanent World Encyclopaedia
		They were written "for gentlemen by gentlemen" in a world wherein universal education was unthought of, and where the institutions of modern democracy with universal suffrage, so necessary in many respects, so difficult and dangerous in their working, had still to appear.
		As the core of such an institution would be a world synthesis of bibliography and documentation with the indexed archives of the world.
		In the hands of competent editors, educational directors and teachers, these condensations and abstracts incorporated in the world educational system, will supply the humanity of the days before us, with a common understanding and the conception of a common purpose and of a commonweal such as now we hardly dare dream of.

	Josiah Royce's The World and the Individual
		An idea is an expression of a purpose in the mind of the subject.
		Thus, even if it is assumed that an idea of an object is caused by the object, this does not imply that the object or the idea are real, because their reality is not established by their causal connection.
		Royce’s concept of the world as an expression of will is similar in some aspects to Schopenhauer's concept of the world as a representation of the will.

	Philosophy- Squashed Schopenhauer - The World As Will And Idea - Condensed and Abridged (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		That is to say, he finds himself in the world as an individual whose knowledge, which is the essential basis of the whole world as idea, is yet ever communicated through the medium of the body, whose sensations are the starting-point of the understanding of that world.
		That aid is will, which alone furnishes the key to the riddle of himself, solves the problem of his own existence and reveals to him the inner structure and significance of his being, his action and his movements.
		Will is the thing-in-itself, the essence of the world.

	Schopenhauer: World as Will and Idea
		The act of will and the movement of the body are not two different things objectively known, which the bond of causality unites;...
		Life is assured to the will to live; the form of life is an endless present, no matter how individuals, the phenomena of the Idea, arise and pass away in time, like fleeting dreams.
		To repeat the whole nature of the world abstractly, universally, and distinctly in concepts, and thus to store up, as it were, a reflected image of it in permanent concepts always at the command of the reason; this and nothing else is philosophy.

	Will E-books Change the World? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		I will more specifically show how the new economy, with its network supported flow of information and money, in a fundamental way not only changes the distribution and trade of books, but also in a rather fundamental way alters the ways book content is produced and, ultimately, changes the nature of the book itself.
		This situation will reduce the interests of both consumers and publishers and thus slow down the diffusion of e-books, largely because the number of available titles will grow slowly and consumers will not have easy access to all titles at any given moment.
		Many of these are world leaders; their strategic moves into the e-book business are part of larger plans to strengthen their dominant positions in the digital content delivery infrastructures of the world.

	Schopenhauer philosophy of Will
		The first and third treating with the World as Representation (or Idea) and being largely based on Kant, the second and fourth treating with the World as Will which, based on his own speculations, considered the notion that the Will is the key to all existence.
		This will is the inner nature of each experiencing being and assumes in time and space the appearance of the body, which is an idea.
		Accordingly existence is the expression of an insatiable, pervasive, will generating a world that features such negatives as conflict and suffering, senselessness, and futility as well as many positives.

	Adventures in Philosophy: Classical Essay
		Every one finds that he himself is this will, in which the real nature of the world consists, and he also finds that he is the knowing subject, whose idea the whole world is, the world which exists only in relation to his consciousness, as its necessary supporter.
		The single example of self-knowledge of the will as a whole is the idea as a whole, the whole world of perception.
		It is the objectification, the revelation, the mirror of the will.

		The "End of the World" may be taken in two different senses, as meaning either the annihilation of our planet by sudden catastrophe, or by gradual decay, or else the disappearance of human life from the face of the globe, owing to some state of circumstances, possible, at any rate, if not probable.
		The whole world consumes about 600,000,000 tons of coal a year, and to this must be added the consumption of oxygen by wood and other vegetable substances which raises the equivalent coal consumption of the world to not less than 1,000,000,000 tons a year.
		The augumentation of the world's bread-eating population in a geometrical ratio is evinced by the fact that the yearly aggregates grow progressively larger.

	Free Will, Responsibility, and The World-Idea - Notebooks of Paul Brunton (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		For the idea of free will is a psychological or theological one and cannot be brought into a realm like physics with which it has nothing to do at all.
		If perfect freedom of the will is impossible, at least that man is nearest to it who acts entirely from his innermost being, not from passional drive, emotional pressure, or physical necessity, who is guided by wisdom, not enslaved by the ego's desires or the animal's ignorance.
		The soul is, in respect to her three lowest faculties, which belong to the World Order, rigidly conditioned: yet in the higher self is as free as self-existence can make it; and the soul will therefore be free exactly according as to whether she identifies herself with her higher or lower faculties.

		The idea is defined as an object of experience and science, and is dependent on the principle of sufficient reason.

	Who is to be Master of the World? Chapter 2
		It will be remembered that moral values were there said to be quite pointless, which did not have the rearing of some particular type of man as their end, as their goal.
		He also regards blind Will as the motive force of the universe; but he does not think this will is a will to life, but, as we have already heard, a Will to Power.
		It is remarkable, that once an idea like that of Hedonism becomes thoroughly appropriated by one or two philosophers, it is almost certain to get buried and completely hidden from the view of the lay-excursionist into philosophy, thanks to the mountain of words with which those who are supposed to elucidate it, systematically smother it.

		As the water gradually heats up, the frog will sink into a tranquil stupor, exactly like one of us in a hot bath, and before long, with a smile on its face, it will unresistingly allow itself to be boiled to death.
		That slight slowing, at least in exponential terms, is due to a combination of reduced population in relatively affluent and heavily populated areas, massive immigration from horrendously to less crowded areas, and new developments in food technology, birth control and medicine.
		When all else fails, it will be objected that the people of the world will not tolerate a limit on food.

		Even though everyone's down on Google these days, they remain the most interesting company in the world and I'm optimistic about their potential and success (while also apprehensive about the prospect of using Google for absolutely everything someday...I'll be cursing the Google monopoly in 5 years time).
		If they stay on target with their plans to leverage their three core assets (which, if Gmail is any indication, they will), I predict Google will be the biggest and most important company in the world in 5-8 years.

		The World as Will and Idea (1819) holds that all nature, including man, is the expression of an insatiable will to life; that the truest understanding of the world comes through art, and the only lasting good through ascetic renunciation.
		The book is a good dissection of the blind striving and willing of our world and has the potential to alter the way you view the nature of things.
		Several readings may be necessary to fully grasp his ideas, but it is worth the extra effort.
