ISBN: 9780802088512 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The excessive worship of adolescence and its social empowerment by adult institutions is the deeply rooted cause of a serious cultural malaise.

Written for the general reader and based on five year's worth of interviews with over 200 adolescents and their parents, Danesi begins by asserting that one of the early causes of this crystallization of adolescence as an age category can be traced back to theories of...

Pi (π) in Nature, Art, and Culture: Geometry as a Hermeneutic Science
ISBN: 9789004433373 / Angielski / Twarda / 2020 / 134 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In Pi (π) in Nature, Art, and Culture Marcel Danesi revisits the importance of π as a pattern in the structure of reality, fitting in with the Pythagorean view of Order. Pi has cropped up in formulas that describe natural and physical structures which, on the surface, seem to have nothing to do with a circle, but might harbor the archetype of circularity as a principle. Through π, this book thus revisits the implicit ancient Greek view that geometry was a 'hermeneutic science,' a discipline aiming to investigate the connectivity among numbers, shapes, and natural phenomena. It also...
