Sceptyczny optymista czyli dlaczego technologia...
ISBN: 9788381968843 / Polski / broszurowa / 2026 / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 6-8 dni roboczych. Nicholas Agar kwestionuje w swojej pracy techno-optymistyczny pogląd, zgodnie z którym od postępu technologicznego oczekujemy wielkich rzeczy dla rozwoju ludzkości. Autor opisuje zjawisko zwane normalizacją hedoniczną, które prowadzi do znacznego przeceniania siły postępu technologicznego dla poprawy naszego samopoczucia. Owa hedoniczna normalizacja wyraża się np. w założeniu, że z faktu, iż w sytuacji trwałego przeniesienia w czasie do średniowiecza bylibyśmy nieszczęśliwi, można wywieść twierdzenie, że ludzie żyjący w tamtych czasach też musieli być...

On the Good Ship Hollywood
ISBN: 9781593930684 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 108 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. For over 20 years, the name John Agar on a marquee meant action to moviegoers - from World War II land, sea and air battles, to the frontier west, to the new frontier of 1950s science fiction, where he stood fast against some of the era's most memorable movie monsters. Agar's rise to fame was meteoric: During World War II, the $83-a-month buck sergeant met and later married "America's Sweetheart" Shirley Temple, and was soon offered a screen test and dramatic instruction by Hollywood mega-mogul David O. Selznick. He co-starred in his very first film, director John Ford's magnificent Fort...

ISBN: 9780745634692 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 624 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. A compelling history of science from 1900 to the present day, this is the first book to survey modern developments in science during a century of unprecedented change, conflict and uncertainty. The scope is global.
Science's claim to access universal truths about the natural world made it an irresistible resource for industrial empires, ideological programs, and environmental campaigners during this period. Science has been at the heart of twentieth century history - from Einstein's new physics to the Manhattan Project, from eugenics to the Human Genome Project, or from the wonders...

Post-Secularism, Realism and Utopia: Transcendence and Immanence from Hegel to Bloch
ISBN: 9780415691802 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This project addresses the rise in post-secularism in the humanities and social sciences. Post-secularism is the proposition that the secular project begun by the Enlightenment has come to an end. Here, the debate about the nature of our 'secular age' and the role of religion in society is renewed. This book will be of great interest to those scholars currently working in the area of post-secularism (a very popular area of research in political philosophy); Hegelian and Marxist scholars; the Critical Realist community. It will also be of interest to undergraduates and postgraduates taking...

Speaking of Ethnography
ISBN: 9780803924925 / Angielski / Miękka / 1985 / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this eloquently written volume Michael Agar expands the premise set forth in his very popular work The Professional Stranger. Speaking of Ethnography challenges the assumption that conventional scientific procedures are appropriate for the study of human affairs. Agar's work is informed by a hermeneutic and phenomenological tradition, in which he questions the researcher's own taken-for-granted procedures.

Dope Double Agent: The Naked Emperor on Drugs
ISBN: 9781411681033 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Dope Double Agent is a war on drugs story, one that starts in the 60s and only ends with the last lines of the book. More than this, it is the story of a young Berkeley student--and occasional drug user--who turns into an insider expert in the drug war with a personal agenda to subvert and correct it. He checks in as a heroin patient, works the streets of New York, dips into worlds of PCP and LSD, and seeks the sources of crack, heroin and ecstasy. The delusions of the experts, the public and the politicians amaze him and make him think the double agent job will be easy. Instead it is...

Science and Spectacle: The Work of Jodrell Bank in Postwar British Culture
ISBN: 9789057022586 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Science and Spectacle relates the construction of the telescope to the politics and culture of post-war Britain. From radar and atomic weapons, to the Festival of Britain and, later, Harold Wilson's rhetoric of scientific revolution, science formed a cultural resource from which post-war careers and a national identity could be built. The Jodrell Bank Radio Telescope was once a symbol of British science and a much needed prestigious project for the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research, but it also raised questions regarding the proper role of universities as sites for...

Life's Intrinsic Value: Science, Ethics, and Nature
ISBN: 9780231117876 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Are bacteriophage T4 and the long-nosed elephant fish valuable in their own right? Nicholas Agar defends an affirmative answer to this question by arguing that anything living is intrinsically valuable. This claim challenges received ethical wisdom according to which only human beings are valuable in themselves. The resulting biocentric or life-centered morality forms the platform for an ethic of the environment. Agar builds a bridge between the biological sciences and what he calls "folk" morality to arrive at a workable environmental ethic and a new spectrum--a new hierarchy--of living...
