Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Risking Their Lives is the third book in a series recording the history of abortion in New Zealand. It flls the gap between "Abortion Then and Now: New Zealand Abortion Stories from 1940 to 1980" and "Rough on Women: Abortion in 19th-Century New Zealand". Abortion has always been a fraught political issue in New Zealand, from the draconian laws of the 1860s, when most abortions were illegal and clandestine and society's emphasis was on punishment, to the turbulent abortion rights protests of the 1970s. In the early years of the 20th century, abortion came to be recognised not just as a crime but also as a major public health problem. In response to an embarrassingly large number of deaths from septic abortion, the government in 1936 appointed a Committee of Inquiry to investigate the issues. This was a turning point in people's attitudes to abortion and women's reproductive health in general. Risking Their Lives features many previously untold stories salvaged from the coroner's reports and newspaper reports of the day. The narrative is grim, but this is an honest retelling of our past, primarily letting the stories speak for themselves. As those who fought to make abortion safer and easier for women grow older and there are fewer people who remember what it used to be like, such stories become increasingly important to ensure that history does not repeat itself. Risking Their Lives is the third book in a series recording the history of abortion in New Zealand. It fills the gap between Abortion Then and Now: New Zealand Abortion Stories from 1940 to 1980 and Rough on Women: Abortion in 19th-Century New Zealand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. …

Paperback. Condizione: New. From bookshelves overflowing with self-help books to scholarly treatises on neurobiology to late-night infomercials that promise to make you happier, healthier, and smarter with the acquisition of just a few simple practices, the discourse of habit is a staple of contemporary culture high and low. Discussion of habit, however, tends to neglect the most fundamental questions: What is habit? Habits, we say, are hard to break. But what does it mean to break a habit? Where and how do habits take root in us? Do only humans acquire habits? What accounts for the strength or weakness of a habit? Are habits something possessed or something that possesses? We spend a lot of time thinking about our habits, but rarely do we think deeply about the nature of habit itself.Aristotle and the ancient Greeks recognized the importance of habit for the constitution of character, while readers of David Hume or American pragmatists like C.S. Peirce, William James, and John Dewey know that habit is a central component in the conceptual framework of many key figures in the history of philosophy. Less familiar are the disparate discussions of habit found in the Roman Stoics, Thomas Aquinas, Michel de Montaigne, René Descartes, Gilles Deleuze, French phenomenology, and contemporary Anglo-American philosophies of embodiment, race, and gender, among many others.The essays gathered in this book demonstrate that the philosophy of habit is not confined to the work of just a handful of thinkers, but traverses the entire history of Western philosophy and continues to thrive in contemporary theory. A History of Habit: From Aristotle to Bourdieu is the first of its kind to document the richness and diversity of this history. It demonstrates the breadth, flexibility, and explanatory power of the concept of habit as well as its enduring significance. It makes the case for habit's perennial attraction for philosophers, psychologists, and sociologists.…

Merci d'avance Envoi soigné et Déposé en 48h (jours ouvrables) Edtion Quebec Amérique 15 x 22 x 1,6 cm 228 pages depo légal:1979 Bon Etat Cet ouvrage de parapsychologie retrace l'histoire captivante d'une expérience scientifique hors du commun menée au Canada. Pour tester les limites de l'esprit humain, des chercheurs décident d'inventer de toutes pièces un esprit fictif nommé Philip, doté d'une biographie imaginaire complète. Le lecteur découvre ainsi les coulisses et les détails intrigants d'un protocole d'étude inédit sur la création psychique. Après la mise en place des bases théoriques de cette recherche, des résultats stupéfiants se manifestent au cours des séances. Des coups frappés résonnent dans la pièce et la table de réunion se met à bouger toute seule sans explication rationnelle. L'enquête analyse rigoureusement ces manifestations de type poltergeist, démontrant qu'elles sont directement provoquées par la force d'intention du groupe. Ces observations amènent à réévaluer la compréhension globale des capacités du cerveau et de la conscience. Les auteurs mettent en lumière la puissance insoupçonnée de la suggestion collective et expliquent comment la pensée humaine parvient à produire des effets physiques mesurables et bien réels dans son environnement.…

Condizione: as new. Philip le fantôme est le fruit d'une expérience qui bouleverse tout ce que nous pensions savoir sur les liens unissant le tréfonds de notre psychisme à ce que l'on appelle communément "l'au-delà". C'est à Toronto qu'un groupe de chercheurs se réunit autour du docteur Georges Owen pour tenter une expérience pour le moins surprenante : créer de toutes pièces un fantôme parfaitement imaginaire ! Pour cela, ils créèrent, avec un grand souci du détail, un personnage censé avoir vécu en Angleterre au milieu du XVIe siècle et qu'ils affublèrent du prénom de "Philip" . Après plus d'une année d'expérimentations multiples, "Philip le fantôme" finit par se manifester au groupe par l'intermédiaire de phénomènes physiques qui furent dûment filmés et enregistrés. Cette manifestation d'une entité créée par l'imaginaire collectif jette un nouvel éclairage sur les capacités de création du psychisme, les phénomènes spirites et les cas de hantise. Puisse ce livre créer des vocations et ouvrir des pistes expérimentales à une recherche qui peine actuellement à se renouveler ! Nombre de pages : 220.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. 1st Edition. First US Edition, First Printing. Hardcover. Octavo. A solid, highly collectible copy of this scarce and seminal parapsychology text documenting the landmark "Philip Experiment" by the Toronto Society for Psychical Research. Bound in sharp cloth with a remarkably tight, unskewed binding and crisp corners. Internal pages are bright, clean, and free of library stamps, remainder marks, or owner inscriptions. A few pages near the terminal end of the volume were previously stuck at the outermost edge during manufacturing or handling and have been carefully opened; the affected margins remain entirely clear, clean, and fully legible without loss of text. Accompanied by the original, uncommonly preserved first-edition dust jacket, which is notably not price-clipped ($8.95 intact). The jacket presents in Very Good minus condition, showing minor, age-appropriate fraying at the spine ends and a single tiny closed tear along one edge, but remains vibrant, structurally sound, and well-preserved. A very desirable example of an elusive occult cornerstone. Bibliography. Looks haunting in a shiny new plastic cover. Packaging suitable for wrapping.…
