Trying Not to Try: The Ancient Art of Effortlessness and the Surprising Power of Spontaneity
ISBN: 9780857863485 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Why is it hard to fall asleep the night before an important meeting? Or be charming and relaxed on a first date? What is it about a comedian whose jokes fall flat or an athlete who chokes? In all these cases, spontaneity is elusive. In 'Trying Not to Try', Edward Slingerland shows us how we can harness its power and become more effective. We've long been told that the way to achieve our goals is through careful reasoning and conscious effort, but recent research suggests that many aspects of a satisfying life are best pursued indirectly. Through stories of mythical creatures and drunken cart...

Creating Consilience
ISBN: 9780199794393 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 472 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Calls for a "consilient" or "vertically integrated" approach to the study of human mind and culture have, for the most part, been received by scholars in the humanities with either indifference or hostility. One reason for this is that consilience has often been framed as bringing the study of humanistic issues into line with the study of non-human phenomena, rather than as something to which humanists and scientists contribute equally. The other major reason that consilience has yet to catch on in the humanities is a dearth of compelling examples of the benefits of adopting a consilient...

What Science Offers the Humanities: Integrating Body and Culture
ISBN: 9780521701518 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 390 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. What Science Offers the Humanities examines some of the deep problems facing current approaches to the study of culture. It focuses especially on the excesses of postmodernism, but also acknowledges serious problems with postmodernism's harshest critics. In short, Edward Slingerland argues that in order for the humanities to progress, its scholars need to take seriously contributions from the natural sciences and particular research on human cognition which demonstrate that any separation of the mind and the body is entirely untenable. The author provides suggestions for how humanists might...

Effortless Action: Wu-Wei as Conceptual Metaphor and Spiritual Ideal in Early China
ISBN: 9780195138993 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book presents a systematic account of the role of the personal spiritual ideal of wu-wei--literally "no doing," but better rendered as "effortless action"--in early Chinese thought. Edward Slingerland's analysis shows that wu-wei represents the most general of a set of conceptual metaphors having to do with a state of effortless ease and unself-consciousness. This concept of effortlessness, he contends, serves as a common ideal for both Daoist and Confucian thinkers. He also argues that this concept contains within itself a conceptual tension that motivates the development of early...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) A deeply original exploration of the power of spontaneity an ancient Chinese ideal that cognitive scientists are only now beginning to understand and why it is so essential to our well-being
Why is it always hard to fall asleep the night before an important meeting? Or be charming and relaxed on a first date? What "is" it about a politician who seems wooden or a comedian whose jokes fall flat or an athlete who chokes? In all of these cases, striving seems to backfire. In "Trying Not To Try, "Edward Slingerland explains why we find spontaneity so elusive, and shows how early Chinese...
