Another Science Is Possible: A Manifesto for Slow Science
ISBN: 9781509521814 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Like fast food, fast science is quickly prepared, not particularly good and it clogs up the system. Efforts to tackle our most pressing issues, like global warming, have been stymied by conflict within the scientific community and mixed messages, symptomatic of a rushed approach. From another flank, scientific research is being shaped by the bubbles and crashes associated with economic speculation and the market. A focus on conformism, competitiveness, opportunism and flexibility has made it extremely difficult to present cases of failure to the public, for fear that the public will lose...

Cosmopolitics I
ISBN: 9780816656875 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. From Einstein s quest for a unified field theory to Stephen Hawking s belief that we would know the mind of God through such a theory, contemporary science and physics in particular has claimed that it alone possesses absolute knowledge of the universe. In a sweeping work of philosophical inquiry, originally published in French in seven volumes, Isabelle Stengers builds on her previous intellectual accomplishments to explore the role and authority of science in modern societies and to challenge its pretensions to objectivity, rationality, and truth.For Stengers, science is a constructive...

In Catastrophic Times: Resisting the Coming Barbarism
ISBN: 9781785420092 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 158 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book is addressed to everyone who is struggling and experimenting today, to everyone who is a true contemporary of what Stengers dares to call "the intrusion of Gaia," this "nature" that has left behind its traditional role and now has the power to question us all. In Catastrophic Times is neither a book of prophecy nor a survival guide. Here, Stengers reminds us that it falls to us to experiment with the apparatuses that make us capable of surviving without sinking into barbarism, to create what nourishes trust where panicked impotence threatens.
This book is addressed to everyone who is struggling and experimenting today, to everyone who is a true contemporary of what Stengers dares to call "t...
