Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This book brings together six countries where arguments about democracy have been central in the processes that have brought them into or kept them on the outside of the European Union (EU). Its purpose is to examine whether, in a context of Europeanisation and at the juncture of crisis, shifts in ideas about national democracy and democracy in the EU have taken place. Turning the focus from the EU centre toward its periphery, the book makes an original contribution to the intertwined debates on the Eurozone crisis and democracy in the European Union. Informed by a constructivist perspective, the book presents in-depth analyses of political party and civil society discourse in Greece, Portugal, Hungary, Turkey, Iceland and Norway. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of History, Politics and European Studies. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Once, philosophers like Plato and Kierkegaard combined narratives and logical arguments to engage both brain hemispheres, creating a kind of Gesamtphilosophy. Nowadays, philosophers mostly communicate with their left hemisphere. In this book, Gesamtphilosophy is restored in a spirit of pragmatism. It is the story of an inexperienced NY Times journalist who is sent to Reykjavik by his editor to cover a philosophy conference on experience, where he himself becomes experienced. During the conference he reports from five presentations on views of experience: Those of Timothy Williamson, John McDowell, Robert Brandom, Richard Rorty, and John Dewey, all representing increasingly complex theories. At the same time, he experiences what the theories say. He becomes a participant, rather than a mere reporter, and finds himself living a modern saga, with striking similarities to a certain Old Norse saga. Dramatic events, involving love and power struggle, are crowned by a volcanic eruption with fatal consequences, before he returns to NY as a very experienced man.

Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. First Edition. Fine-looking, structurally sound hardcover, little discernible wear to the big, tall, Folio-format hardcovers, with a bright interior, unmarked. From a publisher blurb, "This volume marks the end of a long-lasting project. It presents distribution maps and explanatory texts for over 200 taxa of vascular plants with an eastern or north-eastern distribution pattern in Norway. All basic information (including herbarium specimens, literature, lists) has been critically evaluated. For each taxon, the earliest records, habitat (ecology), and distribution within Norway are commented upon, and the relationship to distribution patterns in neighbouring countries is discussed. Although much basic documentation is due to pioneers in the late 18th century and 19th century, substantial new information has been provided during the production of this volume, which also has many comments on solved and unsolved taxonomical problems and problems related to the immigration (or possibly survival) history connected to the taxa. The target audience is botanists dealing with plant taxonomy and phytogeography in boreal and sub-arctic environments. Hopefully, the texts and illustrations will entice a larger audience to engage in further study of Norwegian vascular Flora." Volume contains scholarly apparatus in the form of, e.g., notes, index, and bibliography. [4], 5-489 pp.Member, I.O.B.A., C.B.A., and adherent to the highest ethical standards. Additional postage may be required for oversize or especially heavy volumes, and for sets.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This book is written by an engineer for engineering students (and practising engineers). While the presentation of the core material is fairly traditional, an attempt has been made to emphasize the impact of the formidable computational capability now available to all engineers. The author tends to favour simplicity and "abundance"; that is, many simple elements. Some mathematics is necessary for understanding the finite element method, but hopefully the approach and terminology of this book is familiar to the "engineering" way of thinking, and for the most part derivations are based on the principle of virtual displacements. As the owner of this book you are entitled to download two simple, but useful and easy-to-use FEM programs (for Windows) to your own PC from Both programs (FEMplate and CrossX) are used in connection with several examples in the book.
