ISBN: 9780231134286 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Thomas Kuhn's Structure of Scientific Revolutions has sold over a million copies in more than twenty languages and has remained one of the ten most cited academic works for the past half century. In contrast, Karl Popper's seminal book The Logic of Scientific Discovery has lapsed into relative obscurity. Although the two men debated the nature of science only once, the legacy of this encounter has dominated intellectual and public discussions on the topic ever since. Almost universally recognized as the modern watershed in the philosophy of science, Kuhn's relativistic...

Post-Truth: Knowledge As A Power Game
ISBN: 9781783086948 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. 'Post-Truth' was Oxford Dictionary's 2016 word of the year. While the term was coined by its disparagers, especially in light of the Brexit and US Presidential campaigns, the roots of post-truth lie deep in the history of Western social and political theory. This book reaches back to Plato, ranges across theology and philosophy, and focuses on the Machiavellian tradition in classical sociology. The key figure here is Vilfredo Pareto, who offered the original modern account of post-truth in terms of the 'circulation of elites', whereby 'lions' and 'foxes' vie for power by accusing each...

The theory of knowledge, or epistemology, is often regarded as a dry topic that bears little relation to actual knowledge practices. Knowledge: The Philosophical Quest in History addresses this perception by showing the roots, developments and prospects of modern epistemology from its beginnings in the nineteenth century to the present day. Beginning with an introduction to the central questions and problems in theory of knowledge, Steve Fuller goes on to demonstrate that contemporary epistemology is enriched by its interdisciplinarity, analysing keys areas including:...

Science vs. Religion
ISBN: 9780745641218 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. For centuries, science and religion have been portrayed as diametrically opposed. In this provocative new book, Steve Fuller examines the apparent clash between science and religion by focusing on the heated debates about evolution and intelligent design theory. In so doing, he claims that science vs. religion is in fact a false dichotomy. For Fuller, supposedly intellectual disputes, such as those between creationist and evolutionist accounts of life, often disguise other institutionally driven conflicts, such as the struggle between State and Church to be the source of legitimate authority...

Back to the University's Future
ISBN: 9783031363290 / Angielski / Miękka / 2024 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This volume addresses the central question facing the future of higher education around the world, whether and why universities need to exist at all. This book accepts the question’s premise: It is not clear that the university is any longer needed as an institution -- that is, unless its defenders recover what had made the university the revolutionary institution that over the past two centuries has not only defined the shape of modern systematic inquiry but also the distinctiveness of the societies that have housed them. In short, what is required is a reanimation of the spirit of...

Aimed directly at those who aspire to be university leaders in these turbulent times, and written as an academic counterpart to Machiavelli's The Prince, The Academic Caesar explores four themes that are central to the contemporary university: its Caesar-leaders, its economics, its disciplines, and whether academics have a future in the universities.

This text succinctly teaches new and experienced knowledge professionals the fundamental concepts and theories defining the knowledge management discipline. Because by definition knowledge management requires working with intangible entities and qualities rather than physical objects, successful professionals will possess a minimal understanding of how society defines knowledge and how these definitions impact the way organizations use, create, build, and share information. This book prepares readers to successfully develop KM strategies by pragmatically explaining both what KM is and why it...

Science
ISBN: 9781844652044 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this challenging and provocative book, Steve Fuller contends that our continuing faith in science in the face of its actual history is best understood as the secular residue of a religiously inspired belief in divine providence. Our faith in science is the promise of a life as it shall be, as science will make it one day. Just as men once put their faith in God's activity in the world, so we now travel to a land promised by science. In "Science," Fuller suggests that the two destinations might be the same one. Fuller sympathetically explores what it might mean to live scientifically. Can...
