Shannon Hoff: How to Read Hegel Now

How to Read Hegel Now

Postphenomenology and the Philosophy of Technology

An Arendtian Approach to Political Philosophy of Technology

Technopolitical Mediation

ORIGINAL SIN opens with Kathryn Paige Harden taking LSD with her boyfriend in the West Texas desert, precipitating an experience in which he is unable to escape from the sense that he alone is responsible for an apocalyptic event, despite the fact that the event was impossible to avoid. Using this idea - of being born into sin, the eternal human paradox of free will versus destiny, sharpened to a razor edge by contemporary genetics - Harden explores some of the most important questions in philosophy: How are we to take responsibility for the individuals we become in light of what we know about behavioural genetics? We are not responsible for our genomes, but where does that leave us in respect of justice and punishment? If we possess a predisposition toward violence, does that make such behaviour any less egregious? If we can't help being attracted to certain people, in what sense can we be said to choose a mate or partner? In light of what we know about biology, how should we treat one another, and how can we use policies and social intervention to create a society in which all of us flourish? Beautifully written, deeply literate, autobiographically daring and informed by her own research on the cutting edge of behavioural genetics, this is a profoundly original work of literary non-fiction that promises to take us on a wild intellectual journey - and stay with us long after we turn the final page.

The Genetics of Vice, the Problem of Blame and the Future of Forgiveness

Original Sin

Examining Heidegger's thought in relation to Platonism, this book opens a dialogue between Heidegger and German Platonism that illuminates issues around aesthetics, ethics, political philosophy, and ontology. It will be of interest to scholars of ancient and European philosophy, classicists, intellectual historians, and political theorists.

Bloomsbury Philosophy Dictionaries

While his work speaks very powerfully to the contemporary age, the language of Emmanuel Levinas can seem difficult to approach. This dictionary gives you access to terms he used to build his overall argument, including those he employed idiosyncratically and invented. The dictionary also includes terms from phenomenology to which he gave new meanings, and which focused his critique of Western philosophy. The Levinas Dictionary also makes the work of this central figure in 20th-century philosophy more easily readable in translation by including the original French words he used. Each term explored belongs to one or more of three periods of the work he regarded as properly philosophical: 1) pre-1940; 2) 1940-1960, including the writing of his magnum opus Totality and Infinity and 3) 1960-1995, including his second great work, Otherwise than Being. Entries show how the terms appear, develop, or mutate over the course of his work in the phenomenology of radical ethics. Including an intellectual biography and a chronology of Levinas' life and work, a list of primary sources in French and English, as well as secondary sources and a glossary, The Levinas Dictionary will provide a broad and far-reaching introduction to a thinker whose work has only become more relevant to contemporary theory and practice.

When you think about the tools at our disposal to address the ecological, social and biodiversity challenges we face today, accounting might not immediately come to mind. And yet it is accounting standards, not science and not public policy, that set out how profit is calculated, which in turn drives investment decisions. What if we demanded that those standards reflect the true cost of business and its consequences?Unless we look again at these fundamental principles, which have gone under the radar for so long, capital markets will continue to contribute to inequality, nature loss and climate change. What's remarkable is that we already have in place everything we need for a more just and complete approach to accounting, and forward-thinking businesses are beginning to recognize that.Jeremy Nicholls - accountant, sustainability professional, historian and activist - sets out a vision for new way of accounting, and it's one that we can adopt immediately.

The Accounting Paradox

'Unforgettable'SUNDAY TIMES'Courageous'OBSERVER'One of the most important books to be published in years' SARA COLLINS'There are few writers with Li's power'DOUGLAS STUARTThe best book I have read this year' DAVID NICHOLLS'I will return to it for the rest of my life' CHARLOTTE WOODA remarkable, defiant work of radical acceptance from acclaimed Pulitzer Prize finalist Yiyun Li as she considers the loss of her son James.'There is no good way to say this,' Yiyun Li writes at the beginning of this book.'There is no good way to state these facts, which must be acknowledged. My husband and I had two children and lost them both: Vincent in 2017, at sixteen, James in 2024, at nineteen. Both chose suicide, and both died not far from home.'There is no good way to say this - because words fall short. It takes only an instant for death to become fact, 'a single point in a timeline'. Living now on this single point, Li turns to thinking and reasoning and searching for words that might hold a place for James. Li does what she can: including not just writing but gardening, reading Camus and Wittgenstein, learning the piano, and living thinkingly alongside death.This is a book for James, but it is not a book about grieving. As Li writes, 'The verb that does not die is to be. Vincent was and is and will always be Vincent. James was and is and will always be James. We were and are and will always be their parents. There is no now and then, now and later, only, now and now and now and now.' Things in Nature Merely Grow is a testament to Li's indomitable spirit.As seen in the New Yorker, Vanity Fair, LA Times, TIME, and the Paris Review.'To state that this courageous book is a testament to love is an understatement. One is left altered by it'OBSERVER'A story of loss that is unlike any other book I've read ... an unforgettable monument to endurance'SUNDAY TIMES'Resolutely unsentimental, and yet it might wind you with its emotional force'GUARDIAN'A memoir unlike others, strange and profound and fiercely determined not to look away'NEW YORK TIMES'An extraordinary book' SARAH MOSS'A manifesto of living, not dying, and of how we endure the most unimaginable things' SINÉAD GLEESON, in THE WEEK'A profound look at how a parent continues to live in a world without her children'TIME'A book unlike any I've read, that brims with rare clarity and intelligence, with love and care.
