Vanishing Voices: The Extinction of the World's Languages
ISBN: 9780195136241 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Few people know that nearly 100 native languages once spoken in what is now California are near extinction, or that most of Australia's 250 aboriginal languages have vanished. In fact, at least half of the world's languages may die out in the next century. What has happened to these voices? Should we be alarmed about the disappearance of linguistic diversity?
The authors of Vanishing Voices assert that this trend is far more than simply disturbing. Making explicit the link between language survival and environmental issues, they argue that the extinction of languages is part of the larger...

Evolution and Genetics for Psychology
ISBN: 9780199231515 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Evolutionary theory is driving forward our understanding of human behaviour like never before. Yet, many of us lack a firm grasp of the basics of the theory of evolution - a clear picture of what evolution is, and how and why it operates. But such clarity is essential if we are to fully understand and explore the fascinating behavioural questions that lie before us.
Evolution and Genetics for Psychology lays out the conceptual toolkit one needs in order to think in evolutionary terms - and to apply this thinking to any subject. With the toolkit firmly in place, it goes on to show how... Evolutionary theory is driving forward our understanding of human behaviour like never before.

Vanishing Voices: The Extinction of the World's Languages
ISBN: 9780195152463 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Few people know that nearly one hundred native languages once spoken in what is now California are near extinction, or that most of Australia's 250 aboriginal languages have vanished. In fact, at least half of the world's languages may die out in the next century.
Daniel Nettle and Suzanne Romaine assert that this trend is far more than simply disturbing. Making explicit the link between language survival and environmental issues, they argue that the extinction of languages is part of the larger picture of near-total collapse of the worldwide ecosystem. Indeed, the authors contend that... Few people know that nearly one hundred native languages once spoken in what is now California are near extinction, or that most of Australia's 250 ab...

Strong Imagination: Madness, Creativity and Human Nature
ISBN: 9780198507062 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Madness is the central mystery of the human psyche. Our minds evolved to give us a faithful understanding of reality, to allow us to integrate into our communities, and to help us adapt our behavior to our environment. Yet in serious mental illness, the mind does exactly the opposite of these things. The sufferer builds castles of imaginative delusion, fails to adapt, and becomes a stranger among his own people. Yet mental illness is no marginal phenomenon: it is found in all societies and all historical epochs, and the genes that underlie it are quite common. Furthermore, the traits that...
