• 9780136151647: Bioethics in a Changing World von Jennifer A. Parks, Victoria S. Wike  € 84,48 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  For Medical Ethics courses.

   

  Bioethics in a Changing World is an introductory textbook for individuals who are new to the study of bioethics. This interdisciplinary field, which encompasses philosophy, religion, sociology, gerontology, psychiatry, biomedical science, law, and nursing (to name a few), has been rapidly growing and developing over the last half-century.  In order to get a handle on what "doing" bioethics entails, it is helpful to start with the basic philosophical foundations of bioethical theory and then consider a variety of trenchant issues that arise from the practice of medicine and the provision of health care services within an age of technology.

   

  In constructing this textbook, the central aim has been to guide readers in developing a clear sense of how theory and practice are linked in the dynamic field of bioethics.  Though new problems and issues in bioethics are constantly arising, it is important to focus on the persistence of foundational questions that apply to new contexts.

• 9780205351336: Connecting Standards and Assessments Through Literacy, with a Foreword by Rick Stiggins von Mark W. Conley  € 32,05 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  This exciting new text examines the connection between meeting literacy standards and conducting literacy assessments and helps students understand the confusing world of standards and tests directly affecting today's classrooms.

  Taking a common sense approach to the complex set of assessment challenges teachers face today, respected author Mark Conley maps a clear route to balance in the use of large-scale assessment to serve its intended purposes and the use of classroom assessment to meet the information needs of its intended users. Sure to get students engaged and thinking critically about assessment in standards-based schools, Conley challenges students to address a critical assessment issue: assessment, evaluation and grading practices born and bred to produce dependable rankings-that is, to help only a few students succeed-must now be transformed into practices that permit all students to succeed. Some of the topics featured in the text (e.g. No Child Left Behind, adequate yearly progress, national and state standards and instruction in relation to assessment, early literacy standards and assessments) have been carefully selected for their currency, importance and relevance to students' needs.

  A great text for any student in a teacher preparation program, Connecting Standards and Assessments Through Literacy helps pre-service teachers make clear meaning out of the complexity surrounding assessment and guides them in making practical connections between standards, test performance and future classroom practice.

  Using accessible content that is unintimidating yet intellectually engaging, Discovering Philosophy uses primarily secondary sources such as summaries, explanations, and discussions of major arguments to relate philosophical issues to the readers' own experiences.

   

  Thomas I. White's first goal in writing this book was to produce a text that students would actually read.  The style, tone, and content make the text easy-to-read, unintimidating, and intellectually engaging.  Central to this book is the activity of argumentation and thorough consideration of the intricacies of the arguments we explore.  In the same spirit of approachability, he includes a fair amount of material from other disciplines.  One of the most difficult aspects of teaching introductory philosophy is students' limited prior exposure to it.  Students usually know something about the natural and social sciences, however, so they should feel more comfortable being introduced to philosophical topics through these disciplines  More than anything, White wanted to write a book that helps students become adept and comfortable with doing philosophy-and doing it at an intellectually respectable level.

  Rendered from Copi/Cohen's Introduction to Logic, the most respected introductory logic text on the market, this concise version explains all concepts and techniques clearly, accurately, and thoroughly, bringing them to life using a wealth of contemporary examples.

   

  Essentials of Logic was created in response to a need in the market for a book that effectively covered the fundamental issues in logic.  The first edition of Essentials of Logic was abridged from Copi and Cohen's Introduction, 11^th edition, with an eye to including all and only those elements that most logic teachers would consider essential.  In the second edition, new topics have been added based on readers' suggestions.  For example, indirect and conditional proof techniques have been added and many examples have been thoroughly revised and rewritten.  The result is a book that closely reflects what users deem essential and does so in a way that is sensitive to the needs of today's students.

  Offering a format that is significantly different than that offered by other books, Ethical Health Care beings by asking what is meant by health and how it is achieved. The book then proceeds to explore with care and context the nature of the relationship between patients and clinicians, health care providers and the societies in which they inhabit, and finally the relationship between the health care enterprise and the international community. By emphasizing the ethical issues that arise in the broad quest to foster human health, and appreciating that health is not primarily a function of medical interventions, Ethical Health Care introduces students to problems such as the international distribution of pharmaceuticals and the dangers of reemerging infections. To a far greater extent than is done traditionally, Ethical Health Care provides an interdisciplinary perspective to bioethics, relying heavily upon the teachings of economics, law, and public health.

  Exploring the Philosophy of Religion combines the best features of a text and a reader by offering clear analysis coupled with important primary-source readings.

   

  Professor David Stewart called upon his 30-plus years of teaching experience to introduce students to the important study of philosophical issues raised by religion. Beginning students often find primary sources alone too difficult so this text offers primary source materials by a variety of significant philosophers-including a balanced blend of classical and contemporary authors-but the materials are supported by clearly written introductions, which better prepare students to understand the readings.

• 9780321108821: First Course in Logic, A von K. Codell Carter  € 80,20 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  Providing students with a more understandable introduction to logic without sacrificing rigor, A First Course in Logic presents topics and methods in a highly accessible and integrated manner.

  By integrating and comparing topics throughout and using the same examples in different chapters, the author shows the utility and limitations of each method of logic. The result is that students build on what they have already learned, and more easily figure out the appropriate methods to use. Consistent pedagogical structure helps students learn and study better; fewer basic rules require memorization, and instead emphasize strategies and tactics for applying those rules; and one-of-a-kind LSAT-type exercises apply logic to pre-professional exams.

  ~Wenda O’Reilly, Ph.D., President, Birdcage Press and Author, The Impressionist Art Game

   

  “How sure can you be that you’re not dreaming right now?”

  The hero of The Dream Weaver, young Ian Pinkle, encounters a world full of the unknown. With the help of a mentor and a friend or two, he sheds light on some of life's most difficult questions: How do we determine morality? What is the meaning of life? Does God exist? How can we determine Truth? Fairness? What are the mind and soul like? Ian--in his playful, curious manner--addresses these questions in a way that lets readers develop their own answers, and in doing so, he guides the readers through a history of philosophical thought in a clever, conversational and even adventurous style. This allows readers to think for themselves, ask questions themselves--and to be philosophers themselves.

• 9780131835153: Justice von Louis P. Pojman  € 23,49 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  Written by a group of distinguished philosophers, the Foundations of philosophy Series aims to exhibit some of the main problems in the various fields of philosophy at the present stage of philosophical inquiry. This book is written from the viewpoint that although justice is the most important concept in political philosophy, it is also one of the most contested concepts in philosophy. Coverage begins with an overview of the concept of justice, arguing that justice is a vital part of political philosophy, which in turn is part of moral philosophy. The book outlines an objectivist view of moral philosophy, which holds that moral principles have universal validity. The material presents a philosophical map to navigate the plethora of confusing, competing theories and concepts regarding the importance of justice. The author distinguishes between formal and material concepts of justice and discusses the related issues of comparative/noncomparative justice and distributive versus commutative justice.

  Life takes logic.

   

  Logic offers students a comprehensive yet accessible introduction to the fundamentals of logical thinking. In addition to clear and detailed coverage of logic theory, author Stan Baronett emphasizes real-world applications of the principles of logic. Because of this dual focus-on how to think logically as well as how to apply logic in everyday situations-this text shows students how life takes logic.

   

  Author Stan Baronett employs a clear and accessible writing style in which he addresses the reader as if they are in one-on-one discussion. Throughout the text, Baronett anticipates, asks, and answers the questions that typically arise during discussion of each topic-leading readers to a deeper understanding of the material.

   

   

   

  Praise for LOGIC by Stan Baronett

   

  "I would describe this book as the most student-friendly and instructor-friendly logic text that I have found."

  Stewart Clem, Oklahoma State University

   

  "I really liked Baronett's approach to logic. It seems very 'modern' and 'hip' yet instructive. This is a book that I think my students would really relate to with regard to tone, style and level of instruction."

  Emily Kulbacki, Green River Community College

   

  "It has some of the best writing of any introductory logic book I have encountered."

  Bernard Jackson, Washington and Lee University

   

  "A long-awaited fresh approach to teaching Logic."

  Courtney Hammond, Cuyamaca College

   

  "I think that this book is pedagogically excellent. Baronett's examples are much more likely to engage the interest of the student than are examples in most elementary logic texts.  He also has numerous touches of humor in the exercises, and this will keep both student and teacher engaged."

  Val Dusek, University of New Hampshire

   

  "This book is a good read for a logic text.  It offers an exceptional focus on the relationship of logic and truth and sustains a similar focus throughout the chapters.  Organization definitely serves this central story, which is engagingly told with clear narration and the aid of very helpful diagrams.  Amid myriad introductory logic books, this one actually looks to do the subject a new and fresh turn."

  Ron Jackson, Clayton State University

   

  "The text is user-friendly. It is very methodical and addresses a major difficulty students have in introductory logic courses, namely, their difficulty in building upon what they have previously learned in the course."

  David O'Connor, Seton Hall University

   

  "Baronett's clear prose and careful examples recommend this text.  Students should be able to extract a lot of meaning from the text and instructors should be able to facilitate their learning without losing time in class on remedial issues."

  Gerald Mozur, Lewis & Clark Community College

   

  "Baronett's Logic covers traditional subject matter in an uncluttered, innovative, way... his approach will be successful because he addresses the difficulties students tend to have learning this subject -in the order in which they experience them."

  Jayne Tristan, University of North Carolina at Charlotte

• 9781903684290: NETOCRACY, the new power elite and life after capitalism von Alexander Bard, Jan Soderqvist  € 30,77 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  "Digging deeper and wider than any previous effort into what the information revolution truly means, Netocracy is the must-read.   Netocracy is the unsurpassable how and when of this whole revolution."  Kjell A. Nordström and Jonas Ridderstrale, authors of Funky Business

  The world will not live without logos, but neither will capitalism silently take over democracy. What comes next?

  Forget capitalism and the class struggle, we are witnessing the birth of a whole new world. The digital revolution is, in fact, changing things far more dramatically  then the hype-mongers of tech Internet ever imagined - only not in the way that they and their investors hoped.  The move from a society dominated by print and broadcast mass media to the age of interactivity is at least as dramatic as the move from feudalism to capitalism.

  After capitalism comes attentionalism. Those who can harness global networks of information and master new forms of communication will control business, finance and legislation, forming the new business and government elites. They will inherit the power; they are the Netocracy.

  Driven by the Internet and mobile communications, networks are turning into the major means of doing business, organising action, getting knowledge; the organising principle for the information age. Simply put, networks will make the world go round. So controlling the networks of this world will soon count for more than controlling the capital.

  Harness the right network and yuo can do anything, anywhere.

  Manuel Castells has described the Internet as the most extraordinary technological revolution in history. But he also suggests it is as underdeveloped socially as it is overdeveloped technologically. The societal implications of the communications revolution are going to hit soon. Netocracy predicts what they will be, where the power will flow and draws some remarkable conclusions about life after capitalism.

  And who will have the power in a world dominated by networks?

  The Internet has often been touted as a radically decentralized unpredictable phenomenon thriving beyond the control of individuals, corporations or governments. In Netocracy, Bard and Soderqvist state show that the transparent and non-hierarchical society proclaimed by the enthusiastic early Internet pioneers is one of the greatest myths of the information age. Future society will be hierarchical. It will be divided - but not along lines of wealth and academic merit. Capitalist structures will be broken down.

  Power will not lie with those who own the means of production, but with those who sort and provide information : "It is the people who can create and sustain attention that are the Netocracy, the new holders of power, not those who simply supply capital."People who can manipulate networks and the information that runs through them will inherit the future. These are the netocrats. The netocracy consists of people with excellent social skills and a talent for the adept manipulation of information. Those without this ability to use the new interactive media technology to their advantage will form the lower classes of the digital age.

  netocrat [ne¹to-krat] n. The netocrat has created and not inherited his social identity. He/she is self-made in the most fundamental meaning of the word. The netocrat has money but it is a means and not an end goal. He/she outsmarts the capitalist by ruling the networks that now rule the world. The netocrat is an artistic and political manipulator who has turned networking into an artform.

Featuring a pedagogy unlike any other text of its kind, it provides a "roadmap" for thinking philosophically, outlined and reinforced throughout its introductory essay, chapter introductions, reading annotations, discussion questions, argument analysis sections, and on writing about philosophy.

  The text juxtaposes traditional texts with more recent ones to help students see how philosophers throughout the ages have engaged in an ongoing debate on universal questions and how the philosophies of yesterday are just as relevant and meaningful to our existence today. To insure that students understand the readings, the text provides abundant apparatus to guide students through the material and to help them formulate their own opinions and ideas. Students come to class prepared to engage in discussion instead of needing a lecture just to understand the issues.

• 9780131517615: Philosophy of Religion von James Kellenberger  € 41,68 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  For courses in Philosophy of Religion.

   

  Using various and competing religious sensibilities, Introduction to the Philosophy of Religion helps students work through the traditional material and their own religious questions. This text can be used alone or in conjunction with Kellenberger's Introduction to Philosophy of Religion: An Anthology.

   

  James Kellenberger wrote Introduction to Philosophy of Religion in order to make students aware of the relevance of the issues discussed to religion. One reviewer commented that when he was finished with the class discussion of the arguments for the existence of God, his classes would ask about the significance of the arguments for the existence of God. This text has a chapter that explores that question, Chap 3  "Religious Faith and Proving God's Existence". Chapter 3 follows the chapter in which the logical strength of the traditional arguments for God's existence is discussed. Throughout the text the issues discussed are related to religious reactions to the issues under discussion.

  For introductory courses to Philosophy.

  This text offers a fresh approach to introductory courses by focusing on three human practices: morality, science and religion. Each practice is discussed from three perspectives. The first group of selections looks at the nature of the practice itself, and the relationship with the problems of human meaning and purpose in life. Culture selections investigate the larger social, economic, and political implications of the practice-What is the role of morality in popular culture? In markets? In education? What are the practical and cultural implications of science and technology on our understanding of moral responsibility? On our relationship with other creatures and the natural environment? On human reproduction? Is religion socially useful or harmful? What is its proper role in education? Should it be kept out of politics? Reason selections weigh the truth and objectivity of claims within morality, science and religion-In what sense might they be true or objective? Does truth matter? Are there limits on what each is able to understand about the universe that another can complete? Should we participate in the practice even if its core claims are not true or able to be shown so?

  For courses in Business Ethics, Business and Society, Applied Ethics, and Environmental Ethics.

   

  This is the first text to bring the sustainability paradigm to the forefront of management and business ethics.

   

  The concept of sustainability and sustainable development has taken hold throughout the world as a new guiding principle of economic development.  Sustainability involves "meeting the real needs of the present without so harming the biosphere that future generations will be unable to meet their own needs."  As used by such institutions as the United Nations and the World Bank, sustainable development usually applies to entire economies and societies, and less so to industries and individual businesses.  Yet already some corporations, especially in Europe, have adopted sustainable business practices.  The future is clear: given present global environmental, population, and poverty trends, economic institutions will be judged by how well they meet environmental and ethical, as well as economic, goals.  Joseph R. Desjardins wrote this book to make the case for this claim.

  The general approach of this book to logic remains the same as in earlier editions. Following Aristotle, we regard logic from two different points of view: on the one hand, logic is an instrument or organon for appraising the correctness of reasoning; on the other hand, the principles and methods of logic used as organon are interesting and important topics to be themselves systematically investigated.

  Rigorous treatment of important philosophical issues is presented in a lively, narrative form -- a novel -- engaging students in philosophical debate and showing them the relevance of philosophy to everyday life.  Annotations in the margins link the story as it unfolds to important historical and contemporary philosophers, and comprehensive treatment of both sides of an issue encourages students to think analytically and formulate their own conclusions.

• 9780131499973: Wittgenstein Flies a Kite, A Story of Models of Wings and Models of the World von Susan G. Sterrett  € 23,06 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  The philosophy of language and experimental research in aeronautics made great leaps at about the same time in the early twentieth century. Strange as it may sound, this was no coincidence. Sterrett explains what Wittgenstein's glimpse of a solution to the problem of language in 1914 had to do with experimental models, which had been so crucial to the Wright brothers solving the problem of flight.

  On the eve of the First World War in Europe, Wittgenstein left aeronautical research to study philosophy. He was deeply dissatisfied with Bertrand Russell's solution to the paradoxes of logic, the theory of types. Meanwhile, across the Atlantic Ocean, a physicist trying to improve U.S. aeronautical research capability pondered how the logic of empirical equations held the key to identifying physically similar situations, which in turn would explain the success of the Wright brothers' airplane built from cardboard cartons and bicycle parts. His conclusion held an answer to Wittgenstein's problems about the logic of propositions. In a profound turning point in the history of human thought, Wittgenstein saw that envisioning a propostion as a model or picture would solve the problems of philosophy. He presented this idea in his now legendary "Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus" and commanded the attention of brilliant minds ever since.

Each chapter contains a brief summary of major themes, an introductory student-voiced dialogue, a clarifying discussion, and questions for further reflection. The upbeat tone encourages students to begin thinking philosophically about issues of personal interest, such as the nature of freedom and the understanding of the self.
