Описание: Takes on the traditional view of Greek culture as a triumph of rationalism. Using the analytical tools of modern anthropology and psychology, this title asks, `Why should we attribute to the ancient Greeks an immunity from `primitive` modes of thought which we do not find in any society open to our direct observation?`.
Nationalism was declared to be dead too early. A postnational age was announced, and liberalism claimed to have been victorious by the end of the Cold War. At the same time postnational order was proclaimed in which transnational alliances like the European Union were supposed to become more important in international relations. But we witnessed the rise a strong nationalism during the early 21st century instead, and right wing parties are able to gain more and more votes in elections that are often characterized by nationalist agendas. This volume shows how nationalist dreams and fears alike determine politics in an age that was supposed to witness a rather peaceful coexistence by those who consider transnational ideas more valuable than national demands. It will deal with different case studies to show why and how nationalism made its way back to the common consciousness and which elements stimulated the re-establishment of the aggressive nation state. The volume will therefore look at the continuities of empire, actual and imagined, the role of "foreign-" and "otherness" for nationalist narratives, and try to explain how globalization stimulated the rise of 21st century nationalisms as well.
"For Bob, nothing was sacred and nothing was set in stone - except maybe the idea that fundamentalism is a dangerous dead end. Like Alfred Korzybski's Science and Sanity, Robert Anton Wilson's The New Inquisition seeks to rescue science from fundamentalist materialism, and the rest of us from the broader implications of this approach. It is at once a philosophical treatise and an act of cognitive defiance . . . His message is more important right now than it was when he wrote it. Our digital fundamentalists see human beings as an engineering problem to be solved. Behaviors and thoughts that do not conform to our algorithmically generated profiles are to be eliminated, and humans shepherded into the reality tunnels that obey the laws of rationality alone. We are right now being programmed by the very fundamental materialists RAW is warning us about on these pages." - from Douglas Rushkoff's Introduction to The New Inquisition
Описание: Does the stock market overreact? Recent capital market turbulences have cast doubt whether the behaviour of stock markets is in line with rational investor behaviour. To which extent stock returns are predictable is the question at the heart of the controversy between the paradigms of rational asset pricing and behavioural finance. This new and revised edition discusses the empirical evidence from both perspectives. Theory and empirical analysis are blended with feedback from security analysts to offer a road towards a deeper understanding of the underlying forces to drive performance in the stock market.In his book "Irrational Exuberance" Robert Shiller offered an analysis of the US stock market in 2000. The focus of his book was the level of the stock market, which he thought to be overvalued at the time. This monograph offers a complementary analysis of the cross section of stock returns.
Описание: If you want to let go of anxiety in love and embrace a peaceful relationship, even if you've never been able to before, then keep reading...
Anxiety is a word some fear because people call it taboo, but this is the single worst thing anyone can say In reality, anxiety is a monstrous form that wears different masks. I have personally faced this monster, and I know so many other people who have.
Imagine this: You find yourself waking up in the morning with a sudden dread deep inside of you after finding out your partner wants to separate. You don't know what's happening the first time you experience it. You feel this immense pressure on your chest, but you know that you're a perfect picture of health. You feel like every effort to draw breath is pointless. You are scared
My first time experiencing this anxiety convinced me that my heart had failed me. I thought the end was drawing near and my partner would surely find me dead. I felt myself go into a panic, and my thoughts became a speeding train. I could see the lights from this speeding train heading straight toward me. There is no feeling in the world that can compare to this. I felt my world disintegrating before me. My entire life changed after this monster took hold of me. It affected my relationship further and my ability to function, and I found myself alone faster than you can drop a quarter. My partner was gone and would only return for his clothes. I felt my pain resonating through every aspect of my life.
It took time to get up and dust myself off; it didn't happen overnight. My connection to new people and repairing my relationship with my partner is the only reason I stand today.
That's why I've written this book, to help you stand today, just like me.
In this book, you will find:
How to recognize common anxiety types;
Assistance to take the first step to a stronger relationship by identifying these common triggers;
An analysis of the deeply engraved problems that could harm your relationship;
Stories from other anxiety sufferers to help you learn that you're not alone;
Tips to familiarize yourself with who you are;
An understanding of how your past influences your current relationship;
The various types of relationships out there such as multi-racial, heterosexual, and homosexual;
How to support your partner who's anxious;
Simple advice to improve your romantic relationship;
Easy steps to follow when dating that could lead to love;
How to get out of an irreparable relationship;
How to achieve and maintain a good relationship;
Knowledge from other people's experiences, including my own, that will help you beat this monster.
Whether you're new to this dreaded situation or you've suffered from anxiety in your relationship for years and been too afraid to reach out, I want you to open up and take the first step.
You might be asking: "How can I trust a book I find online?" I understand trust is a difficult thing for you to hand out, but this book is written by people who've suffered themselves. No one can understand your pain better than someone who has been through it.

Описание: Lisa Bortolotti argues that some irrational beliefs are epistemically innocent and deliver significant epistemic benefits that could not be easily attained otherwise. While the benefits of the irrational belief may not outweigh the costs, epistemic innocence helps to clarify the epistemic and psychological effects of irrational beliefs on agency.

Описание:
In this revised, updated, and expanded edition of his "New York Times" bestseller, Nobel Prize winning economist Robert Shiller, who warned of both the tech and housing bubbles, now cautions that signs of irrational exuberance among investors have only increased since the 2008 9 financial crisis. With high stock and bond prices in the United States, and rising housing prices in many countries, the post-subprime boom may well turn out to be another illustration of Shiller s influential argument that psychologically driven volatility is an inherent characteristic of all asset markets. In other words, "Irrational Exuberance" is as relevant as ever.
But" Irrational Exuberance" is about something far more important than the current situation in any given market because the book explains the forces that move all markets up and down. It shows how investor euphoria can drive asset prices up to dizzying and unsustainable heights, and how, at other times, investor discouragement can push prices down to very low levels.
Previous editions covered the stock and housing markets and famously predicted their crashes. This new edition expands its coverage to include the bond market, so that the book now addresses all of the major investment markets. This edition also includes updated data throughout, as well as Shiller s 2013 Nobel Prize lecture, which puts the book in broader context.
In addition to diagnosing the causes of asset bubbles, "Irrational Exuberance" recommends urgent policy changes to lessen their likelihood and severity and suggests ways that individuals can decrease their risk before the next bubble bursts. No one whose future depends on a retirement account, a house, or other investments can afford not to read it.
