DOWNLOAD EBOOKWinner of the 1983 National Book Award! "...a perfectly marvelous book about the Queen of Sciences, from which one will get a real feeling for what mathematicians do and who they are. The exposition is clear and full of wit and humor..." - The New Yorker (1983 National Book Award edition) Mathematics has been a human activity for thousands of years. Yet only a few people from the vast population of users are professional mathematicians, who create, teach, foster, and apply it in a variety of situations. The authors of this book believe that it should be possible for these professional mathematicians to explain to non-professionals what they do, what they say they are doing, and why the world should support them at it. They also believe that mathematics should be taught to non-mathematics majors in such a way as to instill an appreciation of the power and beauty of mathematics. Many people from around the world have told the authors that they have done precisely that with the first edition and they have encouraged publication of this revised edition complete with exercises for helping students to demonstrate their understanding. This edition of the book should find a new generation of general readers and students who would like to know what mathematics is all about. It will prove invaluable as a course text for a general mathematics appreciation course, one in which the student can combine an appreciation for the esthetics with some satisfying and revealing applications. The text is ideal for 1) a GE course for Liberal Arts students 2) a Capstone course for perspective teachers 3) a writing course for mathematics teachers. A wealth of customizable online course materials for the book can be obtained from Elena Anne Marchisotto ([email protected]) upon request.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKLA FILOSOFÍA EXISTENCIALISTA "Uno de los pensamientos que en este momento está conmoviendo al mundo civilizado es la de la Filosofía Existencialista. No es una simple especulación de la inteligencia, ni tampoco una lucubración de aula o de gabinete solamente; tiene su raigambre en la vida social, en el momento histórico. Ciertamente, la historia la está forjando y los pensadores que la formulan, principalmente de Europa, ven en ella una solución al desaliento que está destrozando las almas después de las guerras catastróficas que han deshecho tantas obras de belleza y anulado tantas vidas."

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAssociando-se a um amplo movimento comemorativo europeu e norte-americano, o Instituto de Estudos Filosóficos, com sede na Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Coimbra, em colaboração com a unidade de I&D L.I.F. – Linguagem, Interpretação e Filosofia e com o “Centro de Filosofia” da Universidade de Lisboa organizou nos dias 19 e 20 de Novembro de 2007 um Congresso Internacional comemorativo dos 200 anos da Fenomenologia do Espírito de G. W. F. Hegel, obra publicada inicialmente em 1807. Por ocasião deste congresso, a comunidade filosófica portuguesa teve a grata oportunidade de se confrontar com algumas das mais recentes orientações de análise da obra do filósofo, pondo-se a si mesma à prova quanto às suas aptidões analíticas. Aqui se deixa o retrato de um tal encontro, tanto quanto possível fiel ao que foram, na altura, as exposições dos diferentes autores. In conjunction with a broad commemorative movement in Europe and America, the Institute for Philosophical Studies, based at the Faculty of Letters, University of Coimbra, in collaboration with the R&D unit L.I.F. – Language, Interpretation and Philosophy and with the “Centre for Philosophy” of the University of Lisbon organized on 19th and 20th November 2007 an international conference commemorating the 200th anniversary of Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit (first published in 1807). On the occasion of this conference, the Portuguese philosophical community had the opportunity to come up against some of the most recent orientation in the analysis of this philosopher’s oeuvre, putting itself to the test as regards its analytical skills. This volume offers a picture of that encounter, as faithful as possible to what were, at the time, the papers offered by/expositions of the various authors.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe aim of this volume is to investigate three fundamental issues of the new millennium: language, truth and democracy. The authors approach the themes from different philosophical perspectives. One group of authors examines the use of language and the meaning of concepts from an analytic point of view, the ontology of scientific terms and explores the nature of knowledge in general. Another group examines truth and types of relation. A third group of authors focuses on the current factors influencing our concept of democracy and its legal foundations and makes reference to moral aspects and the question of political responsibility. The chapters provide the reader with an overview of current philosophical problems and the answers to these questions will be decisive for future development.
