Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The volume is collection of articles treating the topic of human improvement/enhancement from a variety of perspectives - philosophical, literary, medical, genetic, sociological, legal etc.The chapters in this volume treat not only those aspects that most immediately come to mind when one thinks of 'human enhancement', such as genetic engineering, cloning, artificial implants and artificial intelligence etc. Somewhat less obvious aspects include evolutionary perspectives in connection with the prolongation of the human lifespan, plastic surgery since its beginnings, and questions such as whether the distinction between 'natural' and 'artificial' can really be drawn at all and how it has been conceived across the ages, or what the legal implications are of recent developments and techniques. Many papers make links to the representation of these developments in popular culture, from Jules Verne through Aldous Huxley to the movie Gattaca, address the hopes and fears that come with them as well as the question how realistic these are.While all chapters are written by scientists at the international top of their respective fields, all are accessible to a non-specialist audience and eminently readable. We believe that they represent a state-of-the art overview of questions that are of interest to a large audience.The book thus targets a non-specialist audience with an interest in philosophical, sociological, scientific and legal issues involved in both traditional and recent matters concerning the desire of mankind to improve itself, the human body, the human mind and the human condition. It is unique in that it brings together all these aspects within a coherent and cohesive collection.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - When David Gorlaeus (1591-1612) passed away at 21 years of age, he left behind two highly innovative manuscripts. Once they were published, his work had a remarkable impact on the evolution of seventeenth-century thought. However, as his identity was unknown, divergent interpretations of their meaning quickly sprang up. Seventeenth-century readers understood him as an anti-Aristotelian thinker and as a precursor of Descartes. Twentieth-century historians depicted him as an atomist, natural scientist and even as a chemist. And yet, when Gorlaeus died, he was a beginning student in theology. His thought must in fact be placed at the intersection between philosophy, the nascent natural sciences, and theology. The aim of this book is to shed light on Gorlaeus' family circumstances, his education at Franeker and Leiden, and on the virulent Arminian crisis which provided the context within which his work was written. It also attempts to define Gorlaeus' place in the history of Dutch philosophy and to assess the influence that it exercised in the evolution of philosophy and science, and notably in early Cartesian circles. Christoph Lüthy is professor of the history of philosophy and science at Radboud University Nijmegen, the Netherlands.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Herbert Lüthy (1918-2002), einer der bedeutendsten Schweizer Historiker und Essayisten des 20. Jahrhunderts, erlangte wegen seiner virtuosen Verknüpfung von akademischer Geschichtsschreibung und Journalismus internationale Anerkennung. In der ab 2005 erschienenen siebenbändigen Werkausgabe sind seine wissenschaftlichen und essayistischen Arbeiten gesammelt und erneut zugänglich gemacht worden. Unbekannt geblieben ist jedoch seine satirische Schweizergeschichte, die er als frühreifer Gymnasiast in den Jahren 1933-1935, der Zeit der anbrechenden 'Geistigen Landesverteidigung', gezeichnet hat. Dieser witzige Jugendstreich wurde anonym 1962 als 'Bilderhandschrift von Ennenda' für einen kleinen Kreis Eingeweihter publiziert und ist längst vergriffen. In der jetzigen Ausgabe erscheint diese Chronik erstmals unter dem Namen des Autors. Der renommierte Zürcher Historiker Jakob Tanner geht in seinem Vorwort auf den geschichtlichen Platz und die erneute Relevanz dieser karikierten Schweizergeschichte ein. In einer biographischen Skizze ergründet Christoph Lüthy die Entstehungsgeschichte dieser Chronik im Spannungsfeld familiärer und geistiger Einflüsse.
