ISBN: 9780791473924 / Angielski / Miękka / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Praised as a major political thinker of the twentieth century and vilified as the putative godfather of contemporary neoconservatism, Leo Strauss (1899-1973) has been the object of heated controversy both in the United States and abroad.

By means of a close and comprehensive study of these texts, David Janssens reconstructs the genesis of Strauss's thought from its earliest beginnings until his emigration to the United States in 1937. He discusses the first stages in Strauss's grappling with the...

The Ethics of Confucius and Aristotle: Mirrors of Virtue
ISBN: 9780415803052 / Angielski / Miękka / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. As a comparative study of the virtue ethics of Aristotle and Confucius, this book explores how they each reflect upon human good and virtue out of their respective cultural assumptions, conceptual frameworks, and philosophical perspectives. It does not simply take one side as a framework to understand the other; rather, it takes them as mirrors for each other and seeks to develop new readings and perspectives of both ethics that would be unattainable if each were studied on its own.

ISBN: 9783110200577 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 265 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Die Analyse zeigt, dass die Zeit in der altarabischen Dichtung genauso wie in der viel fruuuml;heren griechischen Poesie als unentrinnbare Macht wahrgenommen wird. Der arabische Begriff fur unendliche Zeit, dahr, stellt sich als das arabische Pendant des griechischen Begriffs aiooacute;n dar.

Ordaining Reality Made Easy: A Guide for Creating the Future
ISBN: 9781599429106 / Angielski / Miękka / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Many people believe in the Power of Positive Thinking, but no one has succeeded in credibly explaining how mere thoughts can tangibly influence physical nature and/or alter future occurrences. To explain the connection, this book presents a new paradigm of nature and couples it with a convincing explanation of how our right brain hemispheres have a unique capacity to tap into the hidden domain of the metaphysical. To support this premise, the reader is lightly exposed to the divergent worlds of physics and metaphysics and is then introduced to a new view of nature that clearly links mind and...
