ISBN: 9780199974412 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 488 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

Considerations on Representative Government
ISBN: 9780879756703 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 365 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

On Representative Government is one of the most compelling political essays of the 19th century. In this powerful work, John Stuart Mill sets forth representative government as the most sensible compromise between unreflective rule by the masses a...

America's most renowned social philosopher John Dewey shines his powerful intellect on the serious public and cultural issues surrounding the place of the individual in a technologically advanced society.

Humankind has pondered many mysteries, but few more enticing than the existence of a divine creator who is said to have set the universe in motion.

How do we come to have knowledge of God? Who has the burden of proof with respect to these matters of intense religious significance, and what sort of proof might gain universal assent? Can one argue from the orderliness of the...
