The Care of Creation: Focusing Concern and Action
ISBN: 9780830815562 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 213 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. A 2003 Templeton Foundation Book of Distinction "God intends . . . our care of the creation to reflect our love for the Creator," writes John Stott in the foreword to this book. For the theologians and scientists who have contributed to this book, the care of creation is both crucial to human survival and a supreme test of the reality of Christian faith. Their concern reflects not just the selfish interest of the developed North. Nor is it merely a minority enthusiasm, peculiar to bird-watchers and tree-huggers. Rather, it stems from God's creation commands, from Christ's reconciling work,...

Schopenhauerp: A Very Short Introduction
ISBN: 9780192802590 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Schopenhauer is considered to be the most readable of German philosophers. This book gives a succinct explanation of his metaphysical system, concentrating on the original aspects of his thought, which inspired many artists and thinkers including Nietzsche, Wagner, Freud, and Wittgenstein. Schopenhauer's central notion is that of the will--a blind, irrational force that he uses to interpret both the human mind and the whole of nature. Seeing human behavior as that of a natural organism governed by the will to life, Schopenhauer developed radical insights concerning the unconscious and...

Transpositions: On Nomadic Ethics
ISBN: 9780745635965 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This major new book offers a highly original account of ethical and political subjectivity in contemporary culture. It makes a strong case for a non-unitary or nomadic conception of the subject, in opposition to the claims of ideologies such as conservatism, liberal individualism and techno-capitalism.
Braidotti takes a bold stand against moral universalism, while offering a vigorous defence of nomadic ethics against the charges of relativism and nihilism. She calls for a new form of ethical accountability that takes "Life" as the subject, not the object, of enquiry. This ethics is...

Media Ecologies: Materialist Energies in Art and Technoculture
ISBN: 9780262562263 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In Media Ecologies, Matthew Fuller asks what happens when media systems interact. Complex objects such as media systems -- understood here as processes, or elements in a composition as much as "things" -- have become informational as much as physical, but without losing any of their fundamental materiality. Fuller looks at this multiplicitous materiality -- how it can be sensed, made use of, and how it makes other possibilities tangible. He investigates the ways the different qualities in media systems can be said to mix and interrelate, and, as he writes, "to produce patterns,...

Torts and Rights
ISBN: 9780199211609 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The law of torts is concerned with the secondary obligations generated by the infringement of primary rights. This work shows that this apparently simple proposition enables us to understand the law of torts as found in the common law.
Using primarily English materials, but drawing heavily upon the law of other common law jurisdictions, Stevens seeks to give an account of the law of torts which relies upon the core material familiar to most students and practitioners with a grasp of the law of torts. This material is drawn together in support of a single argument in a provocative and... The law of torts is concerned with the secondary obligations generated by the infringement of primary rights.
