New Directions in the Philosophy of Technology PDF By:Joseph C. Pitt Published on 2013-03-09 by Springer Science & Business Media In this collection we finally find the philosophy of technology, a young and rapidly developing area of scholarly interest, making contact with history of science and technology, and mainstream epistemological and metaphysical issues. The sophistication of these papers indicates the maturity of the field as it moves away from the advocacy of anti-technology ideological posturing toward a deeper understanding of the options and restraints technological developments provide. The papers presented here take us over a threshold into the real world of complicated social and technological interactions where science and art are shown to be integral to our understanding of technological change, and technological innovations are seen as configuring our knowledge of the world and opening up new possibilities for human development. With its rich historical base, thi

I Think, Therefore I Draw PDF By:Thomas Cathcart,Daniel Klein Published on 2018-10-30 by Penguin A hilarious new exploration of philosophy through cartoons from the duo who brought you the New York Times bestselling Plato and a Platypus Walk Into A Bar... Thomas Cathcart and Daniel Klien have been thinking deep thoughts and writing jokes for decades, and now they are here to help us understand Philosophy through cartoons, and cartoons through Philosophy. Covering topics as diverse as religion, gender, knowledge, morality, and the meaning of life (or the lack thereof), I Think, Therefore I Draw gives a thorough introduction to all of the major debates in philosophy through history and the present. And since they explain with the help of a selection of some of the smartest cartoonists working today, you'll breeze through these weighty topics as you guffaw and slap your knee. Cathcart and Klein's Plato and a Platypus Walk into a Bar... and Heidegger and a Hippo Walk Through Those

New Cannibal Markets PDF By:Jean-Daniel Rainhorn Published on 2017-12-19 by Éditions de la Maison des sciences de l’homme Thanks to recent progress in biotechnology, surrogacy, transplantation of organs and tissues, blood products or stem-cell and gamete banks are now widely used throughout the world. These techniques improve the health and well-being of some human beings using products or functions that come from the body of others. Growth in demand and absence of an appropriate international legal framework have led to the development of a lucrative global trade in which victims are often people living in insecure conditions who have no other ways to survive than to rent or sell part of their body. This growing market, in which parts of the human body are bought and sold with little respect for the human person, displays a kind of dehumanization that looks like a new form of slavery. This book is the result of a collective and multidisciplinary reflection organized by a group of inte

Science with the VLT in the ELT Era PDF By:Alan F.M. Moorwood Published on 2008-11-21 by Springer Science & Business Media The Workshop “Science with the VLT in the ELT Era” held in Garching from 8th to 12th October 2007 was organised by ESO, with support from its Scienti c and Technical Committee, to provide a forum for the astronomical community to debate the long term future of ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT) and its interferometric mode (VLTI). In particular it was considered useful for future planning to evaluate how its science use may evolve over the next decade due to competition and/or synergy with new facilities such as ALMA, JWST and, hopefully, at least one next generation 30–40 m extremely large telescope whose acronym appears in the title to symbolise this wider context. These discussions were also held in the fresh light of the Science Vision recently developed within ASTRONET as the rst step towards a 20 year plan for implementing astronomical facilities—the rst su

Et si on réinventait l’école ? PDF By:Jean-François Roberge Published on 2016-04-13T00:00:00-04:00 by Québec Amerique « De toute urgence, il faut faire de l’éducation notre priorité nationale », affirme Jean-François Roberge. Plus encore, il faut carrément réinventer l’école parce que, de toute évidence, ça ne va plus. Écoles délabrées, taux de décrochage alarmant, analphabétisme grimpant : les Québécois ne peuvent plus rester les bras croisés. Investir davantage ne suffit pas. Il faut changer notre façon de faire. Pour ce, tous les groupes impliqués dans le réseau scolaire doivent accepter de renoncer à leurs intérêts corporatistes et n’avoir désormais qu’un seul but en tête : donner priorité à l’élève. Ouvrir des maternelles pour les enfants de 4 ans dans toutes les écoles ? Rendre l’école obligatoire jusqu’à l’âge de 18 ans ? Miser sur le parascolaire ? Créer un ordre professionnel des enseignants ? Jean-François Roberge ose mettre de l’avant des idées novatrices qui susciteront bie

Do Central Banks Serve the People? PDF By:Peter Dietsch,François Claveau,Clément Fontan Published on 2018-08-16 by John Wiley & Sons Central banks have become the go-to institution of modern economies. In the wake of the 2007 financial crisis, they injected trillions of dollars of liquidity – through a process known as quantitative easing – first to prevent financial meltdown and later to stimulate the economy. The untold story behind these measures, and behind the changing roles of central banks generally, is that they have come at a considerable cost. Central banks argue we had no choice. This book offers a powerfully original examination of why this claim is false. Using examples from Europe and the US, the authors present and analyse three specific concerns about the way central banks in developed economies operate today. Firstly, they show how unconventional monetary policies have created significant unintended negative consequences in terms of inequalities in income and wealt

Making Instruments Count PDF By:Robert Geoffrey William Anderson,James Arthur Bennett,W. F. Ryan Published on 1993-01-01 by Variorum This collection of essays, bringing together many of the established curators and historians in the field of scientific instruments and ranging widely over their interests, represents a branch of the history of science whose activity, output and significance within the discipline have blossomed in recent years. It is no longer possible to fence off a grand conceptual succession and represent this as the only essence of scientific development. Practices - in discovery, experiment, application and teaching - are integral parts of what science does and are therefore all part of what it is, and instruments were central to each of these varieties of scientific practice. The instrument historian comes in a number of guises - the scholar, the collector, the curator, the dealer - and the discipline is practised in a variety of settings. The university has very di
