  • - Four Lectures on Mind and Culture
    av Jerome Bruner
    470,-

    Bruner argues that the cognitive revolution, with its fixation on a computational model of mind, has led psychology away from the deeper objective of understanding mind as a creator of meanings. Only by breaking out of the limitations of this model can we grasp the interaction through which mind both constitutes and is constituted by culture.

  • av Jerome Bruner
    460,-

    Bruner sets forth nothing less than a new agenda for the study of the mind. He examines the irrepressibly human acts of imagination that allow us to make experience meaningful; he calls this side of mental activity the "narrative mode," and his book makes important advances in the effort to unravel its nature.

  • - An Unexpected Life in Science
    av J. Michael Bishop
    370,-

    In 1989 Michael Bishop and Harold Varmus were awarded the Nobel Prize for their discovery that normal genes under certain conditions can cause cancer. In this book, Bishop tells us how he and Varmus made their momentous discovery.

  • - Two Countries, Four Decades, One Anthropologist
    av Clifford Geertz
    560,-

    In looking back on four decades of anthropology in the field, Clifford Geertz creates a personal history that is also a retrospective reflection on developments in the human sciences amid political, social, and cultural changes in the world.

  • - Myth and Metaphor in the Discovery of Geological Time
    av Stephen Jay Gould
    496,-

    Stephen Jay Gould's subject is nothing less than geology's signal contribution to human thought-the discovery of "deep time," the vastness of earth's history, a history so ancient that we can comprehend it only as metaphor.

  • av Freeman Dyson
    500,-

    Dyson shows us where science and technology, real and imagined, may be taking us. The stories he tells-about "Napoleonic" versus "Tolstoyan" styles of doing science, the coming era of radioneurology and radiotelepathy, the works of writers from Aldous Huxley to Michael Crichton to William Blake-come from science, science fiction, and history.

  • - Autobiographical Exercises
    av Stanley Cavell
    526,-

    This book is an invitation to the life of philosophy in the United States, as Emerson once lived it and as Stanley Cavell now lives it-in all its topographical ambiguity.
