The Psychic Unity of Mankind
ISBN: 9783639710472 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The history of anthropology is intimately tied to the discovery of what it means to be human. From the time of the Sumerians and Early Egyptians that nature of being human was a significant question investigated by the great thinkers of world cultures like Pythagoras, Buddha, Zoroaster and Confucius among many others. The Chinese voyages of discovery of Chang Ho and the European voyages of the 15th century renewed this inquiry, but for for the West the temptation of conquest and colonialism created ideas of essential difference that lead to modern racism. The process to examine this racist...

Credit Crisis
ISBN: 9783639707298 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Banks are generally considered to be utilities that allow for the transmission of value on a daily basis in modern society, but they also seem to create devastating events like credit crises by the manufacture of credit. How this power originated in human society is of interest. Most animals produce some degree of savings, either in caching from one season to the next or for later in one season. Often these savings are an intergenerational transfer for the initial survival of young as in some wasps, or in a later use by the same individual who produces the savings either in the same year or...

There has recently been a renewed interest in both casual use of psychedelics as well as experimental use and attempts to discover therapeutic value.

The Anthropology of Complex Economic Systems: Inequality, Stability, and Cycles of Crisis
ISBN: 9780739169711 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Today we live in what Ulrich Beck has aptly characterized as a "risk society" shaped by intensifying crises outside of our control and seemingly outside of our comprehension. The master narrative that was supposed to lead us to secular salvation--economics--has proved to be a large part of the problem rather than the much anticipated solution. In The Anthropology of Complex Economic Systems, Niccolo Caldararo offers a much more radical and challenging answer: that the fundamental assumptions on which the modern "science" of economics has been erected are false, and that it is through the...

Some Evolutionary Aspects of Disease Avoidance
ISBN: 9783639519525 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Avoiding disease certainly has value to the individual in escaping pain, suffering and death. It would seem obvious that mechanisms would evolve to enhance the ability of an individual to recognize and avoid contact lead- ing to infection or exposure to infection. Social animals especially display evidence of behavior that avoid or limit disease and death. It is clear from animal research in the wild and captivity that behavior can play a significant role in infection and the spread of disease and the production of mortality (Loehle, 1995). Such behavior would then have a selective role to...
