The Invention of Telepathy
ISBN: 9780199249626 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) The belief in telepathy is still widely held and yet it remains much disputed by scientists. Roger Luckhurst explores the origins of the term in the late nineteenth century.

In the winter of 1922-23 archaeologist Howard Carter and his wealthy patron George Herbert, the Fifth Earl of Carnarvon, sensationally opened the tomb of Tutenkhamen. Six weeks later Herbert, the sponsor of the expedition, died in Egypt.

Science and Structure in Proust's a la Recherche Du Temps Perdu
ISBN: 9780198160021 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Proust is read as a writer of maxims and metaphors, of short and long sentences, as at once an aesthete and a scientific thinker. His A la recherche du temps perdu is a hybrid, a novel-essay, an epistemological debate that crosses the boundaries between two cultures, art and science. Science and Structure explores the epistemological alertness and anxiety of Proust's masterpiece and in so doing illuminates the interrelations between "modernist" art and science.
