How the rise of computerized decision-making affects every aspect of business and daily life The bot takeover began with high frequency trading on Wall Street, and from there it spread to all manners of high-level tasks--such as diagnosing illnesses or interpreting legal documents.

The Archangel Michael: His Mission and Ours
ISBN: 9780880103787 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. For centuries, the tradition of the "mystical chronology" of the world's seven archangelic regents has been part of Western esoteric teaching. According to this tradition, 1879 marked the return of the solar spirit Michael--the archangel of the Sun--to oversee earthly evolution. Steiner always placed his life and work in the service of Michael's evolutionary task. And he recognized that, at the beginning of the twentieth century, humanity emerged from the Kali Yuga--the Dark Age--and entered the Age of Light.
Against this background, Steiner described the ascent of Michael as... For centuries, the tradition of the "mystical chronology" of the world's seven archangelic regents has been part of Western esoteric teaching. Accordi...

Based on extensive research in West Africa, Christopher Steiner's book presents a richly detailed description of the economic networks that transfer art objects from their site of use and production in Africa to their point of consumption in art galleries and shops throughout Europe and America.

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) "You will find meditative verses for the individual weeks of the year.

The Kingdom of Childhood: Seven Lectures and Answers to Questions Given in Torquay, August 12-20, 1924
ISBN: 9780880104029 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 155 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. These seven intimate, aphoristic talks were presented to a small group on Steiner's final visit to England. Because they were given to "pioneers" dedicated to opening a new Waldorf school, these talks are often considered one of the best introductions to Waldorf education. Steiner shows the necessity for teachers to work on themselves first, in order to transform their own inherent gifts. He explains the need to use humor to keep their teaching lively and imaginative. Above all, he stresses the tremendous importance of doing everything in the knowledge that children are citizens of both...

What is Anthroposophy?: Three Perspectives on Self-Knowledge
ISBN: 9780880105064 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This is one of those books that can change your life. Radical, thought-provoking, and indeed mind-boggling, it leads to a completely new way of looking at what it means to be human - a spiritual being in a universe that itself is not just physical, but psychic and spiritual as well. These three previously untranslated lectures are a masterly introduction to what Rudolf Steiner means by "anthroposophy." They explain why Steiner describes this path-which means literally "the wisdom of the human being"- as one that "unites what is spiritual in the human being with what is spiritual in the...
