The David Story: A Translation with Commentary of 1 and 2 Samuel
ISBN: 9780393320770 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Acclaimed for its masterful new translation and insightful commentary, The David Story is a fresh, vivid rendition of one of the great works in Western literature. Robert Alter's brilliant translation gives us David, the beautiful, musical hero who slays Goliath and, through his struggles with Saul, advances to the kingship of Israel. But this David is also fully human: an ambitious, calculating man who navigates his life's course with a flawed moral vision. The consequences for him, his family, and his nation are tragic and bloody. Historical personage and full-blooded imagining, David is...

Undoing the Demos: Neoliberalism's Stealth Revolution
ISBN: 9781935408543 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Neoliberal rationality -- ubiquitous today in statecraft and the workplace, in jurisprudence, education, and culture -- remakes everything and everyone in the image of homo oeconomicus. What happens when this rationality transposes the constituent elements of democracy into an economic register? In Undoing the Demos, Wendy Brown explains how democracy itself is imperiled. The demos disintegrates into bits of human capital; concerns with justice bow to the mandates of growth rates, credit ratings, and investment climates; liberty submits to the imperative of human capital...

Galileo
ISBN: 9780199655984 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 528 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In 1610, Galileo published the Siderius nuncius, or Starry Messenger, a "hurried little masterpiece" in John Heilbron's words. Presenting to the world his remarkable observations using the recently invented telescope--the craters of the moon, the satellites of Jupiter--Galileo dramatically challenged our idea of the perfection of the heavens and the centrality of the Earth in the universe. Indeed, the appearance of the little book is regarded as one of the great moments in the history of science.

Born to Be Good: The Science of a Meaningful Life
ISBN: 9780393337136 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. In this startling study of human emotion, Dacher Keltner investigates an unanswered question of human evolution: If humans are hardwired to lead lives that are nasty, brutish, and short, why have we evolved with positive emotions like gratitude, amusement, awe, and compassion that promote ethical action and cooperative societies? Illustrated with more than fifty photographs of human emotions, Born to Be Good takes us on a journey through scientific discovery, personal narrative, and Eastern philosophy. Positive emotions, Keltner finds, lie at the core of human nature and shape our everyday...

Urban Outcasts: A Comparative Sociology of Advanced Marginality
ISBN: 9780745631257 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Breaking with the exoticizing cast of public discourse and conventional research, Urban Outcasts takes the reader inside the black ghetto of Chicago and the deindustrializing banlieue of Paris to discover that urban marginality is not everywhere the same. Drawing on a wealth of original field, survey and historical data, Loic Wacquant shows that the involution of America's urban core after the 1960s is due not to the emergence of an 'underclass', but to the joint withdrawal of market and state fostered by public policies of racial separation and urban abandonment. In European cities,...

Physics for Future Presidents: The Science Behind the Headlines
ISBN: 9780393337112 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. We live in complicated, dangerous times. Present and future presidents need to know if North Korea's nascent nuclear capability is a genuine threat to the West, if biochemical weapons are likely to be developed by terrorists, if there are viable alternatives to fossil fuels that should be nurtured and supported by the government, if private companies should be allowed to lead the way on space exploration, and what the actual facts are about the worsening threats from climate change. This is "must-have" information for all presidents--and citizens--of the twenty-first century. Winner... We live in complicated, dangerous times.

Perverse Politics?: Feminism, Anti-Imperialism, Multiplicity
ISBN: 9781786350749 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this special issue, we address what we refer to as 'perversity of the political' or 'perverse politics': namely, the assumptions political theory and movements, and in our specific case feminism, often make on behalf of their subjects, and how their subjects, in return, perform individual and collective contrariness, unruliness and resistance to what is expected or desired from their 'subjectivity'. Specifically focusing on the themes of 'false consciousness', multiplicity, and uneasy alliances, the papers collected here seek to empirically lay out a number of such 'perverse' moments, and...
