Science and Its History: A Reassessment of the Historiography of Science
ISBN: 9789048174140 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 514 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Professor Joseph Agassi has published his Towards an Historiography of Science in 1963. It received many reviews by notable academics, including Maurice Finocchiaro, Charles Gillispie, Thomas S. Kuhn, Geroge Mora, Nicholas Rescher, and L. Pearce Williams. It is still in use in many courses in the philosophy and history of science. Here it appears in a revised and updated version with responses to these reviews and with many additional chapters, some already classic, others new. They are all paradigms of the author's innovative way of writing fresh and engaging chapters in the history of...

The Very Idea of Modern Science: Francis Bacon and Robert Boyle
ISBN: 9789400797758 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 318 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book is a study of the scientific revolution as a movement of amateur science. It describes the ideology of the amateur scientific societies as the philosophy of the Enlightenment Movement and their social structure and the way they made modern science such a magnificent institution. It also shows what was missing in the scientific organization of science and why it gave way to professional science in stages. In particular the book studies the contributions of Sir Francis Bacon and of the Hon. Robert Boyle to the rise of modern science. The philosophy of induction is notoriously...

Popper and His Popular Critics: Thomas Kuhn, Paul Feyerabend and Imre Lakatos
ISBN: 9783319065861 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 158 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This volume examines Popper's philosophy by analyzing the criticism of his most popular critics: Thomas Kuhn, Paul Feyerabend and Imre Lakatos. They all followed his rejection of the traditional view of science as inductive. Starting from the assumption that Hume's criticism of induction is valid, the book explores the central criticism and objections that these three critics have raised. Their objections have met with great success, are significant and deserve paraphrase. One also may consider them reasonable protests against Popper's high standards rather than fundamental criticisms of...

Science in Flux
ISBN: 9789027706126 / Angielski / Miękka / 1975 / 559 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Joseph Agassi is a critic, a gadfly, a debunker and deflater; he is also a constructor, a speculator and an imaginative scholaro In the history and philosophy of science, he has been Peck's bad boy, delighting in sharp and pungent criticism, relishing directness and simplicity, and enjoying it all enormously. As one of that small group of Popper's students (ineluding Bartley, Feyerabend and Lakatos) who took Popper seriously enough to criticize him, Agassi remained his own man, holding Popper's work itself to the criteria of critical refutation. Agassi's range is wide and his publications...

Games to Play and Games not to Play: Strategic Decisions via Extensions of Game Theory
ISBN: 9783031276002 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book contributes to the theoretical discussions of equilibria that rest on error―in which we include mistaken choices of games to play. Extant game theory recommends diverse strategies (plans of actions) for various given games, particularly those in Nash equilibria, in which no player benefits from one-sided strategy alteration. The literature also refers to the design of games that fit given goals. This is the mechanism design theory; its function is to serve social planners ignorant of the preferences of the people intended to play them.Our study of games avoidance adds to game...

Multidimensional Queueing Models in Telecommunication Networks
ISBN: 9783319086682 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The increasing complexity of telecommunication networks requires us to develop adequate mathematical models. We must find their characteristics, optimize them subject to chosen criteria, and develop the corresponding control algorithms. Multidimensional queueing models are used to design and optimize modern and next-generation networks (NGN). The central problem of the related mathematical theory is to apply multidimensional and large-size queueing models to improve efficiency. In this book new methods are successively developed and applied to solve related problems. The book is recommended...

Ravensbruck was the only major Nazi concentration camp for women. Between 1939 and 1945, it was the site of murder by slave labor, torture, starvation, shooting, lethal injection, medical experimentation, and gassing. In its six-year history, 132,000 women from twenty-seven countries were imprisoned in Ravensbruck. Only about 15,000 in all survived. " Jewish Women Prisoners of Ravensbruck "reclaims the lost identities of these victims. Together with a team of researchers, Judith Buber Agassi interviewed 138 survivors of Ravensbruck on four continents. Using the... "Voice to the silent"

Paranoia: A Study in Diagnosis
ISBN: 9789027707055 / Angielski / Miękka / 1976 / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. There is a curious parallel between the philosophy of science and psychiatric theory. The so-called demarcation question, which has exercised philosophers of science over the last decades, posed the problem of distinguishing science proper from non-science - in par- ticular, from metaphysics, from pseudo-science, from the non- rational or irrational, or from the untestable or the empirically meaningless. In psychiatric theory, the demarcation question appears as a problem of distinguishing the sane from the insane, the well from the mentally ill. The parallelism is interesting when the...

Diagnosis: Philosophical and Medical Perspectives
ISBN: 9789401074360 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 263 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. 1. GENERAL The term "diagnostics" refers to the general theory of diagnosis, not to the study of specific diagnoses but to their general framework. It borrows from different sciences and from different philosophies. Traditionally, the general framework of diagnostics was not distinguished from the framework of medicine. It was not taught in special courses in any systematic way; it was not accorded special attention: students absorbed it intuitively. There is almost no comprehensive study of diagnostics. The instruction in diagnosis provided in medical schools is exclusively specific....
