hardcover. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Zustand: NEW. 208, 47 b/w illus. . HB. NEW. . An illustrated mini-encyclopedia about the wonderful world of lichens. Lichenpedia is a delightfully entertaining and beautifully illustrated A-Z treasury about the strange, obscure, and remarkable world of lichens, from their unique and essential roles in nature and the ways they are used in dyeing, brewing, and drug-making - to how they have inspired writers and artists, from Henry David Thoreau to modern painters.In 100 brief entries written in a vivid, lively style, Kay Hurley introduces key aspects of lichen biology, environmental roles, emerging uses, scientific history, and myth. She describes the variety of forms that lichens take, from leafy to filamentous to things reminiscent of skin diseases, with imaginative names like witch's hair. She explains the surprising ways that birds and beasts - from reindeer and moose down to tiny tardigrades - use lichens, and how lichens survive in extreme environments, from deserts to Antarctica to outer space. Hurley also introduces some of the innovators who have advanced the knowledge of lichens, from the ancient Greek philosopher Theophrastus to today's professional lichenologists.With charming drawings by Susan Adele Edwards, Lichenpedia promises to put you in touch with the natural world in a new way by opening your eyes to these vital organisms, which are all around us, hidden in plain sight. Features a cloth cover with an elaborate foil-stamped design. [9780691239903]. Edwards, Susan Adele (illustrator).…

Zustand: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Se recogen en este tomo las ponencias de siete prestigiosos académicos en las conferencias Oxford Amnesty en la primavera de 1993, en torno al problema de los derechos humanos universales. Son tantas las perspectivas desde las que se enfoca el problema como diferentes las conclusiones a las que se llega. Las preguntas centrales que se hacen en este libro son cuestiones a las que se enfrenta cualquiera que desee responder apropiadamente a las numerosas violaciones de derechos humanos que nos rodean. ¿Existen derechos humanos universales aplicables en todo momento a todas las culturas? ¿Está, desde un principio, condenado al fracaso cualquier intento por nuestra parte de buscarle un fundamento racional a los derechos humanos? ¿Es verdaderamente necesario buscarle un fundamento racional? S. Lukes discute la fórmula de organización política de la sociedad más compatible con la práctica de los derechos humanos. J. Rawls propone un derecho de gentes o de los pueblos con alto contenido ético, que sea aplicable tanto en las sociedades liberales como en las sociedades jerárquicas. C. MacKinnon examina la condición femenina a la luz de la catástrofe humanitaria provocada por la desintegración violenta de la antigua Yugoeslavia. R. Rorty sugiere la educación de los sentimientos como fundamento de una cultura de los derechos humanos. J. F. Lyotard estudia la noción de dignidad humana en el horizonte de la filosofía del lenguaje. A. Heller plantea las paradojas éticas de la llamada «justicia retroactiva» frente a los crímenes atroces de las dictaduras derrocadas. Y J. Elster explora los problemas constitucionales de la transición a la democracia en los países de Europa oriental. Estos ensayos, rigurosos y apasionados a la vez, suponen una contribución esencial a la teoría y práctica de los derechos humanos, por su riqueza conceptual, su diversidad metodológica y por su temple moral. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
