The Sun, the Genome, and the Internet: Tools of Scientific Revolutions
ISBN: 9780195139228 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this visionary look into the future, Freeman Dyson argues that technological changes fundamentally alter our ethical and social arrangements and that three rapidly advancing new technologies--solar energy, genetic engineering, and world-wide communication--together have the potential to create a more equal distribution of the world's wealth.
Dyson begins by rejecting the idea that scientific revolutions are primarily concept driven. He shows rather that new tools are more often the sparks that ignite scientific discovery. Such tool-driven revolutions have profound social...

ISBN: 9780199594511 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 896 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The creation of the single European currency and of the European Central Bank in the context of a wider economic and political union has been one of the most important projects of institution-building and policy development in post-1945 Europe. The first volume of European Economic Governance and Policies seeks both to place this project in its longer-term historical context and to complement the many secondary texts on this highly topical subject.

The State Tradition in Western Europe: A Study of an Idea and Institution
ISBN: 9780955820359 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 356 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Why have continental European societies developed the idea of the abstract impersonal state as the fundamental institution of political rule? Why, on the other hand, has this idea played a relatively insignificant part in the history of English-speaking countries? It is to such questions that this major study is addressed. With clarity and conciseness, Kenneth Dyson examines the fascinating tapestry of thought about public authority that the state tradition represents, and identifies the major individual contributions to that tapestry. In addition to offering a clear conceptualisation of...

Ethics and Biotechnology
ISBN: 9780415756181 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The development of biotechnology has produced nothing short of a revolution, both in our capacity to manipulate living things from single plant cells to human nature itself, but also to manufacture brand new life forms. This power to shape and create forms of life has sometimes been described as the power to "play God" and this book is about the ethics of "playing God" in the field of biotechnology. International scholars cover moral dilemmas posed by biotechnology, from the smallest cells through animals to the engineering of human beings.

Mercy Sky
ISBN: 9780595345151 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 444 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. "Mercy Sky" is a riveting novel based upon actual historical events woven silently through our young American past. Events such as John Hart Crenshaw's Reverse Underground Railroad or the "lost" section of the Cherokee Trail of Tears are the very fabric loosely covering our identity as a nation. As a people forever affected by the ramifications of tragedy, we should not let the lessons fall away useless and forgotten. "Mercy Sky" revisits yesterday's world with the timelessness of a delicate love story. The spiritual waves brought of young lovers Lemn and Cora, of makeshift siblings Avi and...

A private citizen who transformed the world around him, Martin Luther King, Jr., was arguably the greatest American who ever lived. Now, after more than thirty years, few people understand how truly radical he was.

The History of Tattooing
ISBN: 9780486468129 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 346 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This 1925 survey constitutes one of the most complete histories of world tattoo practices. It was written at the end of a significant era in anthropological fieldwork, when the efforts of missionaries and the impact of European imperialism had suppressed all but the final vestiges of indigenous native tattoo traditions. Subsequent opportunities for original fieldwork related to tattooing were rare, making this book a valuable link to vanishing cultures.
