Emergence and Convergence: Qualitative Novelty and the Unity of Knowledge
ISBN: 9781442628212 / Angielski / Miękka / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Two problems continually arise in the sciences and humanities, according to Mario Bunge: parts and wholes and the origin of novelty.

Along the way, Bunge examines further topical problems, such as the search for the mechanisms underlying observable facts, the limitations of both individualism and holism, the reach of reduction, the abuses of Darwinism, the rational...

Pierre Klossowski: The Pantomime of Spirits
ISBN: 9783034302098 / Angielski / Miękka / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book examines the many facets of the work of Pierre Klossowski (1905 2001). Klossowski first established himself as a writer and was known and admired by peers such as Bataille, Blanchot, Gide, Foucault, Deleuze and Lacan. But in 1972 he gave up writing to devote himself to his mutism: painting made up of large coloured drawings. In time he became as famous a painter as he had been a writer and theorist. Klossowski now has two separate groups of commentators: those concerned with his writings and those with his painting, with little overlap between the two.
Here, this separation is... This book examines the many facets of the work of Pierre Klossowski (1905 2001). Klossowski first established himself as a writer and was known and ad...
