Juan Luis Vives Against the Pseudodialecticians: A Humanist Attack on Medieval Logic
ISBN: 9789027709004 / Angielski / Twarda / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The humanist treatises presented here are only peripheral to the history of logic, but I think historians of logic may read them with interest, if perhaps with irritation. In the early sixteenth century the humanists set about to demolish medieval logic based on syllogistic and disputation, and to replace it in the university curriculum with a 'rhetorical' logic based on the use of topics and persuasion. To a very large extent they succeeded. Although Aris totelian logic retained a vigorous life in the schools, it never again attained to the overwhelming primacy it had so long enjoyed in the...

The Social Construction of Science: A Comparative Study of Goal Direction, Research Evolution and Legitimation
ISBN: 9789027714985 / Angielski / Twarda / 237 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book concerns the institutionalisation of the physical sciences. The book breaks with the established tradition in the history, philosophy and sociology of sciences by attempting to capture both the cognitive and social dimensions of institutionalisation in one unified analysis. This unifica- tion has been achieved through a treatment of research as goal directed social action - a theme which has been developed both theoretically and empirically. The analysis presented is therefore unique in its breadth of focus and shows how the traditional concerns of sociology with generalised...

Beyond Measure: A Guided Tour Through Nature, Myth and Number
ISBN: 9789810247010 / Angielski / Twarda / 616 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A collection of essays that stand on their own but are also loosely connected. Part I documents how numbers and geometry arise in several cultural contexts and in nature: the ancient musical scale, proportion in architecture, ancient geometry, megalithic stone circles, the hidden pavements of the Laurentian library, the shapes of the Hebrew letters, and the shapes of biological forms. The focus is on how certain numbers, such as the golden and silver means, present themselves within these systems. Part II shows how many of the same numbers and number sequences are related to the modern...

Photographer Geert Kooiman has created a collection of over 150 images conveying objects and situations in context with Famous Quotations and Proverbs; and in doing so explores the tension between the art of combining a photograph and the text. The meaning of the text is placed in a totally new perspective, and so everything becomes relative; and nothing in this life is what it seems. This series of photographs that show only objects dumb in their often absurd collection, and stage managed (mise-en-scene);...

Old Pewter
ISBN: 9781905217472 / Angielski / Miękka / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "The key-note of the fascination of pewter at its best is its simplicity. It does not, like gold and silver plate, hint in any way at large intrinsic values, nor has it their aggressive sparkle and glitter clamouring decoratively for attention." First published in 1913, Malcolm Bell's guide is a clear, concise and fascinating introduction to the world of antique pewter. Reflecting the changing aesthetic values of the 20th century, he praises the understated design and solid craftsmanship of everyday objects crafted using pewter alloy between the 15th and 17th centuries. He starts with a guide...
