ISBN: 9789401037419 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 287 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. A World in Transition, Humankind and Nature is appropriately entitled after its aim for an intrinsic property of reality: change.
Of major concern, in this era of transformation, is the extensive and profound interaction of humankind with nature. The global-scale social and technological project of humankind definitely involves a myriad of changes of the ecosphere. This book develops, from the call for an interdisciplinary synthesis and respect of plurality, acknowledging the evolving scientific truth, to the need for an integrated but inevitably provisional worldview. ...

Science and Art: The Red Book of `Einstein Meets Magritte'
ISBN: 9789048152414 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 262 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. How do science, producing knowledge and technology, and art, producing revelations and sensations, confront each other? We have taken up the two myths of Albert Einstein and Rene Magritte to address this question. The meeting between Einstein and Magritte is presented as an experiment, with which we hope to go beyond the many programmatical appeals, in order to cut across art and science. The experiment brings together scientists, artists and philosophers who have already - in their own distinctive ways - taken the path towards interdisciplinarity. This book presents their different...

Worldviews, Science and Us: Redemarcating Knowledge and Its Social and Ethical Implications
ISBN: 9789812561909 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This publication features an interdisciplinary group of contributors which questions aspects of today's worldviews and science that are often taken for granted and tacitly determine the boundaries of what is generally conceived of us the 'world' and 'science'. Some authors stress that existing demarcations are obsolete and often prevent new insights. Others show how they influence the way people perceive themselves and believe the world ontologically to be, determining people's actions and the social fabric. There are yet others who point out how a redemarcatian may stimulate the development...
