The search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) represents one of the most significant crossroads at which the assumptions and methods of scientific inquiry come into direct contact with-and in many cases conflict with-those of religion. Indeed, at the core of SETI is the same question that motivates many interested in religion: What is the place of humanity in the universe? Both scientists involved with SETI (and in other areas) and those interested in and dedicated to some religious traditions are engaged in contemplating these types of questions, even if their respective approaches and...

Taming Oblivion: Aging Bodies and the Fear of Senility in Japan
ISBN: 9798887190969 / Rosyjski / Twarda / 2022 / 330 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Taming Oblivion examines the cultural construction of senility in Japan and the moral implications of dependent behavior for older Japanese. While the biomedical construction of senility-as-pathology has become increasingly the norm in North America, in Japan a folk category of senility exists known as boke. Although symptomatically and conceptually overlapping with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of senile dementia, boke is distinguished from unambiguously pathological conditions. Rather than being viewed as a disease, boke is seen as an illness over which people have some degree of...

Wearing Cultural Styles in Japan: Concepts of Tradition and Modernity in Practice
ISBN: 9780791466988 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This groundbreaking collection examines the regional dynamics of state societies, looking at how people use the concepts of urban and rural, traditional and modern, and industrial and agricultural to define their existence and the experience of living in contemporary Japanese society. The book focuses on the Tohoku (Northeast) region, which many Japanese consider rural, agrarian, undeveloped economically, and the epitome of the traditional way of life. While this stereotype overstates the case--the region is home to one of Japan's largest cities--most Japanese contrast Tohoku (everything...
