Expression and the Inner
ISBN: 9780674030442 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 182 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. At least since Descartes, philosophers have been interested in the special knowledge or authority that we exhibit when we speak about our own thoughts, attitudes, and feelings. Expression and the Inner contends that even the best work in contemporary philosophy of mind fails to account for this sort of knowledge or authority because it does not pay the right sort of attention to the notion of expression. Following what he takes to be a widely misunderstood suggestion of Wittgenstein's, Finkelstein argues that we can make sense of self-knowledge and first-person authority only by coming...

Quantum Relativity: A Synthesis of the Ideas of Einstein and Heisenberg
ISBN: 9783642646126 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 578 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Over the past years the author has developed a quantum language going beyond the concepts used by Bohr and Heisenberg. The simple formal algebraic language is designed to be consistent with quantum theory. It differs from natural languages in its epistemology, modal structure, logical connections, and copulatives. Starting from ideas of John von Neumann and in part also as a response to his fundamental work, the author bases his approach on what one really observes when studying quantum processes. This way the new language can be seen as a clue to a deeper understanding of the concepts of...

The declaration of the People's Republic of China in October 1949 presented American foreign policy officials with two dilemmas: How to deal with the communist government on the mainland and what to do about Chiang Kai-shek's Nationalist regime on Taiwan.

Most observers believed that nothing short of American military intervention would preclude a communist victory. How U.S. officials grappled with the question of what to...
