Freud and Nietzsche
ISBN: 9780826482990 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Many of the leading Freudian analysts, including in the early days, Jung, Adler, Reich and Rank, attempted to link the writings of Nietzsche with the clinical work of Freud.

Assoun moves beyond the seduction of these attractive analogues to a deeper analysis of the relation between these two figures.

Refuge: Rethinking Refugee Policy in a Changing World
ISBN: 9780190659158 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Global refugee numbers are at their highest levels since the end of World War II, but the system in place to deal with them, based upon a humanitarian list of imagined "basic needs," has changed little. In Refuge, Paul Collier and Alexander Betts argue that the system fails to provide a comprehensive solution to the fundamental problem, which is how to reintegrate displaced people into society. Western countries deliver food, clothing, and shelter to refugee camps, but these sites, usually located in remote border locations, can make things worse. The numbers are stark: the average...

Human Virology
ISBN: 9780198714682 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Viruses are some of the simplest infectious agents on the planet, yet can cause severe and even life-threatening diseases in all forms of life - including humans. Despite relying on host cells in order to replicate, viruses can be capable of extremely rapid reproduction and very effective transmission from one person to another. Because of this, they have historically represented a significant proportion of the disease burden affecting humans, in addition to a number of new high profile diseases which have emerged in the last century. However, on a more positive note, the only two diseases to...
