Seeing with the Hands: Blindness, Vision and Touch After Descartes
ISBN: 9781474405324 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The "man born blind restored to light" was one of two foundational myths of the Enlightenment, according to Foucault. With ophthalmic surgery in its infancy, the fascination with blindness and what the blind 'see' once their vision is restored remained largely hypothetical.

Did evidence from early ophthalmic surgery resolve debates about the relationship between vision and touch in the newly sighted? Has the standard representation of blind figures in literature been modified by recent autobiographical accounts of...

Crises and Challenges for the European Union
ISBN: 9781350342903 / Angielski / Miękka / 2023 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The crises of the European Union extend beyond the challenges of Covid-19, Brexit, the Eurozone, and mass migration, cutting to the core of the EU itself. Taking a structural rather than event-based approach, this text unpacks all aspects of the EU in crisis and analyses the implications of these crises for the EU and its member states. This edition argues that crises and challenges are no longer unique and discreet events facing the EU, but rather, they are better understood as sustained conditions that have changed the relationships between member states, the functioning of institutions,...

Affective Touching: Neurobiology and Technological Applications
ISBN: 9781009484374 / Angielski / Miękka / 2025 / 75 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. At the end of the twentieth century the discovery of 'slow', affective touch nerves in humans known as C Tactile (CT) afferents, which are entirely separate from the faster pathways for touching objects, had huge social implications. The Swedish neuroscientists responsible formulated an “affective touch hypothesis” or “social touch hypothesis” to consider their purpose. Part I offers a history of the science of social touch, from related discoveries in mammals by physiologists in the 1930s, to the recent rediscoveries of the CT nerves in humans. Part II considers how these findings...
