Childhood and the Philosophy of Education: An Anti-Aristotelian Perspective
ISBN: 9781441198334 / Angielski / Miękka / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Philosophical accounts of childhood have tended to derive from Plato and Aristotle, who portrayed children (like women, animals, slaves, and the mob) as unreasonable and incomplete in terms of lacking formal and final causes and ends. Despite much rhetoric concerning either the sinfulness or purity of children (as in Puritanism and Romanticism respectively), the assumption that children are marginal has endured. Modern theories, including recent interpretations of neuroscience, have re-enforced this sense of children's incompleteness. This fascinating monograph seeks to overturn...

The Physical University: Contours of Space and Place in Higher Education
ISBN: 9780415662314 / Angielski / Twarda / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The great universities of the world are to a large extent defined in the public imagination by their physical form: when people think of a university, they usually think of a distinctive place, rather than about say the teaching or the research that might go on there. This is understandable, both because universities usually stay rooted to the same spot over the centuries; and because their physical forms may send powerful messages about the kind of places they are. The physical form of the university, and how the spaces within it become transformed by their users into places which hold...
