ISBN: 9780231134286 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 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...

ISBN: 9781844658176 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 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:...

Knowledge Management Foundations
ISBN: 9780750673655 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 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...

The Cognitive Turn: Sociological and Psychological Perspectives on Science
ISBN: 9780792303060 / Angielski / Twarda / 1989 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) If nothing else, the twelve papers assembled in this volume should lay to rest the idea that the interesting debates about the nature of science are still being conducted by "internalists" vs. "externalists,"" rationalists" vs. "arationalists, n or even "normative epistemologists" vs. "empirical sociologists of knowledge. " Although these distinctions continue to haunt much of the theoretical discussion in philosophy and sociology of science, our authors have managed to elude their strictures by finally getting beyond the post-positivist preoccupation of defending a certain division of labor...

Post-Truth: Knowledge as a Power Game
ISBN: 9781783086931 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) '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...

In this second edition of Steve Fuller's original work Philosophy, Rhetoric, and the End of Knowledge: A New Beginning for Science and Technology Studies, James Collier joins Fuller in developing an updated and accessible version of Fuller's classic volume.

Science
ISBN: 9781844652044 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 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...

Back to the University's Future
ISBN: 9783031363290 / Angielski / Miękka / 2024 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 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...

Science vs. Religion
ISBN: 9780745641225 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 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...

Knowledge Management Foundations
ISBN: 9781138148710 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) 'Knowledge Management Foundations' is just what it claims, the first attempt to provide a secure intellectual footing for the myriad of practices called "knowledge management." A breath of fresh air from the usual KM gurus, Fuller openly admits that the advent of KM is a mixed blessing that often amounts to the conduct of traditional management by subtler means. However, Fuller's deep understanding of both the history of management theory and knowledge production more generally enables him to separate the wheat from the chaff of the KM literature. This ground-breaking book will prove of...

Science is a swashbuckling book. Fuller's formidable scholarship takes no prisoners. Nature What qualifies such seemingly disparate disciplines as paleontology, high-energy physics, industrial chemistry, and genetic engineering as sciences, and hence worthy of sustained public interest and support? In this innovative and controversial introduction to the social character of scientific knowledge, Steve Fuller argues that if these disciplines share anything at all, it is more likely the way they strategically misinterpret their own...

Thomas Kuhn: A Philosophical History for Our Times
ISBN: 9780226268941 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 490 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Thomas Kuhn's The Structure of Scientific Revolutions is one of the best known and most influential books of the twentieth century. Whether they adore or revile him, critics and fans alike have tended to agree on one thing: Kuhn's ideas were revolutionary. But were they?
Steve Fuller argues that Kuhn actually held a profoundly conservative view of science and how one ought to study its history. Early on, Kuhn came under the influence of Harvard President James Bryant Conant (to whom Structure is dedicated), who had developed an educational program intended to help deflect...
