This book returns to a time and place when the concept of transparency was met with deep suspicion. It offers a panorama of postwar French thought where attempts to show the perils of transparency in politics, ethics, and knowledge led to major conceptual inventions, many of which we now take for granted.
Between 1945 and 1985, academics, artists, revolutionaries, and state functionaries spoke of transparency in pejorative terms. Associating it with the prying eyes of totalitarian governments, they undertook a critical project against it—in education, policing, social psychology, economic policy, and the management of information. Focusing on Sartre, Lacan, Canguilhem, L?vi-Strauss, Leroi-Gourhan, Foucault, Derrida, and others, Transparency in Postwar France explores the work of ethicists, who proposed that individuals are transparent neither to each other nor to themselves, and philosophers, who clamored for new epistemological foundations. These decades saw the emergence of the colonial and phenomenological other, the transformation of ideas of normality, and the effort to overcome Enlightenment-era humanisms and violence in the name of freedom. These thinkers innovations remain centerpieces for any resistance to contemporary illusions that tolerate or enable power and social coercion.

Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка.Описание: Flow cytometry is a method to conduct a multiparameter analysis of cells suspended in liquid and passing through a laser beam. As cells pass through the flow chamber they are hit with the laser light beam which is scattered in different directions and recorded as forward light scatter and side light scatter. In this book, the authors discuss the principles, methodology and applications of flow cytometry. Topics include flow cytometry and epifluorescence analyses of freshwater bacterio- and virioplankton communities; application of flow cytometry in phenotyping, analysis and functional characterisation of T regulatory and immune suppressor cells; multicolor panel design strategies in rare event analysis of dendritic cells and regulatory T cells; advanced characterisation of individual particle morphology light-scattering flow cytometry; and application of flow cytometry in environmental science.
Автор: Geroulanos StefanosНазвание: An Atheism That Is Not Humanist Emerges in French ThoughtISBN: 0804762996 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780804762991 Издательство: Wiley EDCРейтинг: Цена: 4288.00 р. Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ.Описание: French philosophy changed dramatically in the second quarter of the twentieth century. In the wake of World War I and, later, the Nazi and Soviet disasters, major philosophers such as Koj?ve, Levinas, Heidegger, Koyr?, Sartre, Merleau-Ponty, and Hyppolite argued that man could no longer fill the void left by the "death of God" without also calling up the worst in human history and denigrating the dignity of the human subject. In response, they contributed to a new belief that man should no longer be viewed as the basis for existence, thought, and ethics; rather, human nature became dependent on other concepts and structures, including Being, language, thought, and culture. This argument, which was to be paramount for existentialism and structuralism, came to dominate postwar thought. This intellectual history of these developments argues that at their heart lay a new atheism that rejected humanism as insufficient and ultimately violent.

Автор: Stefanos MihaliosНазвание: The Danielic Eschatological Hour in the Johannine LiteratureISBN: 0567409414 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780567409416 Издательство: BloomsburyРейтинг: Цена: 5642.00 р. Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ.Описание: Stefanos Mihalios examines the uses of the ‘hour’ in the writings of John and demonstrates the contribution of Danielic eschatology to John’s understanding of this concept. Mihalios begins by tracing the notion of an eschatological time in the Old Testament within expressions such as ‘in that time’ and ‘time of distress,’ which also appear in the book of Daniel and relate to the eschatological hour found in Daniel. Mihalios finds that even within the Jewish tradition there exists an anticipation of the fulfillment of the Danielic eschatological time, since the eschatological hour appears in the Jewish literature within contexts that allude to the Danielic end-time events. Mihalios moves on to examines the Johannine eschatological expressions and themes that have their source in Daniel, finding evidence of clear allusions whenever the word ‘hour’ arises. Through this examination, he concludes that for the Johannine Jesus use of the term ‘hour’ indicates that the final hour of tribulation and resurrection, as it is depicted in Daniel, has arrived.
