Routledge History of Philosophy Volume IV : The Renaissance and Seventeenth Century Rationalism
ISBN: 9780415053785 / Angielski / Twarda / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The philosophy discussed in this volume covers a period of 350 years, from the middle of the 14th century to the early years of the 18th century: the birth of modern philosophy. The chief topics are Renaissance philosophy and 17th century rationalism - in particular Descartes, Spinoza and Leibniz.

The Birth of the Museum : History, Theory, Politics
ISBN: 9780415053877 / Angielski / Twarda / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This text challenges our understanding of the modern museum. Suggesting that we view the public museum not just as a place of instruction but as a reformatory of manners which provides for a wide range of regulated social routines and performances, Tony Bennett places the museum at the centre of modern relations of culture and government. Juxtaposing the museum's development alongside that of the fair and the international exhibition and interpreting these as interacting technologies of progress, Bennett throws new light on the relations between modern forms of official and popular culture....

The Self and Its Brain: An Argument for Interactionism
ISBN: 9780415058988 / Angielski / Miękka / 616 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The relation between body and mind is one of the oldest riddles that has puzzled mankind. That material and mental events may interact is accepted even by the law: our mental capacity to concentrate on the task can be seriously reduced by drugs. Physical and chemical processes may act upon the mind; and when we are writing a difficult letter, our mind acts upon our body and, through a chain of physical events, upon the mind of the recipient of the letter. This is what the authors of this book call the 'interaction of mental and physical events'. We know very little about this interaction; and...

ISBN: 9780415060035 / Angielski / Twarda / 496 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The 19th century was a period of intense intellectual activity with major advances being made in the sciences, in mathematics and in psychology, which gradually established itself as a discipline independent of philosophy. Philosophical disputes arose about the nature of scientific method and about whether, or to what extent, the understanding of human conduct and human society required the adoption of the methods of observation and experiment common to the natural sciences. Different philosophical theories about the nature of reality, the foundations of knowledge and of morality, and the...

ISBN: 9780415069946 / Angielski / Miękka / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Museum professionals have taken a lead in creating improved access for the disabled.

Forward Planning: A Handbook of Business, Corporate and Development Planning for Museums and Galleries
ISBN: 9780415070263 / Angielski / Miękka / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Forward planning is essential for most organizations, but especially so for museums and heritage bodies, with responsibilities stretching forward to infinity. And, moreover, with limited and ever more constrained funding, careful planning is essential if resources are to match needs. A simple transfer of ideas and principles of business planning from industry, commerce, or government to the world of museums is not adequate; the particular needs of the heritage context have to be addressed. This large format book is designed to provide a specific set of practical guidelines for museum and...

Museum and art galleries have never been so much in the news as they have been over the past decade.
