Anaximander and the Architects
ISBN: 9780791447949 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 350 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Anaximander and the Architects opens a previously unexplored avenue into Presocratic philosophy--the technology of monumental architecture. The evidence, coming directly from sixth century B.C.E. building sites and bypassing Aristotle, shows how the architects and their projects supplied their Ionian communities with a sprouting vision of natural order governed by structural laws. Their technological innovations and design techniques formed the core of an experimental science and promoted a rational, not mythopoetical, discourse central to our understanding of the context in which early Greek...

Antitrust Policy and Vertical Restraints
ISBN: 9780815733911 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 104 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Antitrust law is intended to protect consumer welfare and foster competition. At first glance, however, it is often unclear whether certain business practices have positive or detrimental effects. Businesses frequently engage in activities that may appear anticompetitive on the surface, but are actually beneficial to consumers. Business tying practices, for example, make the sale of one product conditional upon the sale of another product. This practice can either deprive consumers of choice and drive up prices or lower costs and improve convenience. Therefore, it is critical that...

ISBN: 9780300068719 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The ways in which people respond to sickness differ greatly from society to society. In this book anthropologist and epidemiologist Robert A. Hahn examines how Western and non-Western cultures influence the definition, experience, and treatment of sickness.
Hahn begins by developing a definition of sickness that is based on the patient's perception of suffering and disturbance rather than on the physician's assessment of biomedical signs. After reviewing the principal theories that account for the forms of sickness and healing found in different historical and cultural situations, he...

Climate Change and Common Sense: Essays in Honour of Tom Schelling
ISBN: 9780199692873 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 279 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. There is widespread agreement that climate change is a serious problem. If we fail to regulate greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming, or use alternative strategies for addressing the problem, the damages could be significant, and perhaps catastrophic.
After several international meetings in which nation-states have tried unsuccessfully to address the climate change problem, there is a sense of frustration and urgency: frustration at the slow pace at which countries are moving toward an international agreement to reduce greenhouse gas emissions; urgency because of the growing...

Risks, Costs, and Lives Saved: Getting Better Results from Regulation
ISBN: 9780195211740 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The debate over environmental, health, and safety regulation has reached a new crescendo in the 104th Congress. So impassioned is the debate on occasion, and so high the feelings, that even the tools of regulatory analysis have become part of the combat.
To some, the term cost-benefit analysis, for example, is virtually a swearword, a nefarious tool used by big business to undermine regulations aimed at benefiting the people at large. To others, it is the mechanism for achieving more effective regulation at less cost. This new book on the subject of reforming regulation is aimed at...

Physicians of Western Medicine: Anthropological Approaches to Theory and Practice
ISBN: 9789027718815 / Angielski / Miękka / 1984 / 345 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. After putting down this weighty (in all senses of the word) collection, the reader, be she or he physician or social scientist, will (or at least should) feel uncomfortable about her or his taken-for-granted commonsense (therefore cultural) understanding of medicine. The editors and their collaborators show the medical leviathan, warts and all, for what it is: changing, pluralistic, problematic, powerful, provocative. What medicine proclaims itself to be - unified, scientific, biological and not social, non-judgmental - it is shown not to resemble very much. Those matters about which medicine...
