1.BergsonismBergsonism
from Zone Books
Price: $12.89

Customer Review:
In this book, Gilles Deleuze analyzes and supplements the work of philosopher Henri Bergson. The importance of this book lies in its ability to give insights not only into the work of Bergson but also into the later work of Deleuze.

For example, the first chapter of this book deals with Bergson's... more info

2.Matter and MemoryMatter and Memory
from Cosimo Classics
Price: $13.05

Customer Review:
Read Elizabeth Grosz's new book, In the Nick of Time, for a lucid account of Matter and Memory that could serve as a guidebook for the uninitiated who might find Deleuze equally tricky.

3.Comedy: An Essay on Comedy by George Meredith. Laughter by Henri BergsonComedy: "An Essay on Comedy" by George Meredith. "Laughter" by Henri Bergson
from The Johns Hopkins University Press
Price: $20.95

Customer Review:
This review is partial, and does not include the major essay of Wylie Sypher that serves as epilogue for the essays of Meredith and Bergson.
Meredith, Bergson, and Freud are among the few who so far as I know have presented major theories of comedy and laughter. Meredith's discussion of... more info

4.Creative EvolutionCreative Evolution
from Dover Publications
Price: $12.71

Customer Review:
Bergson's thesis is that Darwinian and Lamarkian evolution are only half the story and that there is a creative urge inherent in life that defines the direction of evolution. It is distinguished from Creationism in that his system does not posit and eschaton or final perfect form, nor an external... more info

6.The Creative Mind: An Introduction to Metaphysics (Dover Books on Western Philosophy)The Creative Mind: An Introduction to Metaphysics (Dover Books on Western Philosophy)
from Dover Publications
Price: $9.31

Customer Review:
I haven't read this work in a while, though I read it many times at various points in my adult life. It does, however, stand out for me as the most difficult subject that Philosophy has yet to answer. Or, can it be answered, is probably closer to the point. This is the problem of what we call... more info

8.The Two Sources of Morality and ReligionThe Two Sources of Morality and Religion
from University of Notre Dame Press
Price: $16.20

Customer Review:
Here is a work of such scope that it seems very difficult to summarize. One of the main ideas is that the human intellect was evolved as a tool for survival through problem-solving. This tool worked so well that it threatened to become self-defeating, as individuals began to realize they could use... more info

9.Thinking in Time: An Introduction to Henri BergsonThinking in Time: An Introduction to Henri Bergson
from Cornell University Press
Price: $18.95

Customer Review:
A introductory book on the philosophy of Bergson, which ends with two (short) chapters discussing the recent "return to Bergson." Guerlac's monograph reads as though it were rather hastily put together, as though she ran out of time to properly develop the material.
An example: chapter 5... more info

from Book Jungle
Price: $9.45

Customer Review:
One of the more accessible books by an underrated philosopher whose usefulness, especially with regard to literary narrative, is being rediscovered, "Laughter" must qualify as one of Bergson's slighter works. Much of its importance stems from its place among the very first essays to take seriously... more info
