ISBN: 9780804736930 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book tells the story of how small farmers responded to a free-market onslaught that devastated one of the Western Hemisphere's most advanced social-democratic welfare states. In the early 1980s, the Latin American debt crisis struck Costa Rica, leading to major cutbacks in the social programs that had permitted the rural poor to attain an acceptable standard of living and a modicum of dignity. Peasants were in the forefront of movements against these cutbacks, marching, blocking highways, and occupying government buildings. In the struggle to preserve their livelihood, the rural poor...

ISBN: 9781781792681 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The theme of leadership played an important role in ancient Israel and its discourse. It was explored time and again through memories of proper, improper and in-between leaders and through memories of particular institutions like monarchy, priesthood, and prophethood.

Although the nature and limitations of kingship, both native and foreign, is a central theme of many of the essays, the...

Topobiology: An Introduction to Molecular Embryology
ISBN: 9780465086535 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. If you had a complete copy of a dinosaur's DNA and the genetic code, you still would not be able to make a dinosaur--or even determine what one looked like. Why? How do animals get their shape and how does shape evolve? In this important book, Nobel laureate Gerald M. Edelman challenges the notion that an understanding of the genetic code and of cell differentiation is sufficient to answer these questions. Rather, he argues, a trio of related issues must also be investigated--the development of form, the evolution of form, and the morphological and functional bases of behavior....

In The Happiness of Pursuit, Edelman offers a fundamental understanding of pleasure and joy via the brain. Using the concept of the mind as a computing device, he unpacks how the human brain is highly active, involved in patterned networks, and constantly learning from experience. As our brains predict the future through pursuit of experience, we are rewarded both in real time and in the long run. Essentially, as... When fishing for happiness, catch and release.

The Origins of the Second Temple: Persion Imperial Policy and the Rebuilding of Jerusalem
ISBN: 9781845530167 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 458 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Darius I, King of Persia, claims to have accomplished many deeds in the early years of his reign, but was one of them the rebuilding of the temple in Jerusalem? The editor who added the date to the books of Haggai and Zechariah thought so, and the author of Ezra 1-6 then relied on his dates when writing his account of the rebuilding process. The genealogical information contained in the book of Nehemiah, however, suggests otherwise; it indicates that Zerubbabel and Nehemiah were either contemporaries, or a generation apart in age, not some 65 years apart. Thus, either Zerubabbel and the...
