George Sand was admired by Dostoevsky, Whitman, Flaubert, Thackeray and Elizabeth Barret Browning as on of the greatest writers of her time.

In this critical introduction to Sand's works, Dickenson pulls together all the myths about her and vigorously challenges them, offering fresh insights into Sand's writings, sexuality and the...

ISBN: 9780231159753 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Personalized healthcare--or what the award-winning author Donna Dickenson calls "Me Medicine"--is radically transforming our longstanding "one-size-fits-all" model. Technologies such as direct-to-consumer genetic testing, pharmacogenetically developed therapies in cancer care, private umbilical cord blood banking, and neurocognitive enhancement claim to cater to an individual's specific biological character, and, in some cases, these technologies have shown powerful potential. Yet in others they have produced negligible or even negative results. Whatever is behind the rise of Me Medicine, it...

Drawn from Life: Science and Art in the Portrayal of the New World
ISBN: 9780802080738 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The use of images as evidence in historical writing has been largely neglected by historians, though recent interest in the importance of visualization in scientific literature has led to a reappraisal of their value. In Drawn from Life, Victoria Dickenson uncovers a vast pictorial tradition of 'scientific illustration' that reveals how artists and writers, from the late sixteenth to the early nineteenth century portrayed the natural history and landscape of North America to European readers. Dickenson undertakes a close reading of the images created by European artists, most of whom...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Playful and inquisitive, seals have long been interested in humans--and humans have reciprocated that interest, falling for their beauty, grace, and charm as they frolic alongside our boats or loll on sandy shores. In this newest entry in the Animal series, Victoria Dickenson traces the history of our interaction with these beautiful, fascinating swimmers, from the centuries of hunting--in which people killed countless seals for their skin, oil, and meat--to the present, when the white-furred baby seal has become one of the most potent symbols of the need for ecological conservation. Along...

Property, Women, and Politics: Subjects or Objects?
ISBN: 9780813524580 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Although many feminist authors have pointed out the ways in which women have been property, they have been less successful in suggesting how women might become the subjects rather than the objects of property holding. Property, Women, and Politics draws on a series of historical and anthropological studies which include the property position of women in classical Greece, the Anglo-American doctrine of coverture, nineteenth-century prostitution, and structural adjustment programs in sub-Saharan Africa; and it includes a comprehensive critique of the treatment of property by both mainstream...

Risk and Luck in Medical Ethics
ISBN: 9780745621456 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Ethics is commonly assumed to be the one realm in which luck and risk do not
intrude. It has been said that 'While one can be lucky in one's business, in one's married life, and in one's health, one cannot, so it is commonly assumed, be subject to luck as far as one's moral worth is concerned.' But although we do not normally hold people responsible for outcomes beyond their control, a serious examination of the role of luck and risk may lead us to conclude that very few outcomes are really within people's control. This is the paradox of 'moral luck'.... Ethics is commonly assumed to be the one realm in which luck and risk do not
intrude. It has been said that 'While one can be lucky in one's bus... |
