Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Culture of Capitalism explores original perspectives on capitalist society.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This thoroughly revised commentary uses the most recent insights in Heidegger studies to lead the reader through the sometimes difficult text of 'Being and Time.' The clearly marked section-by-section analysis explains the structure of 'Being and Time,' illuminates obscure passages, and presents examples of human experience to elucidate Heidegger's points. So that the reader does not lose sight of the main argument, Gelven summarizes the relevant concepts of Heidegger's chapters prior to his explicit interpretation of each section. Even though Gelven's commentary is primarily intended to be used as a supplement to 'Being and Time,' the text also serves as an articulate study in Heideggerian philosophy.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This book is an introduction to and interpretation of the philosophy of language devised by Donald Davidson over the past 25 years. The guiding intuition is that Davidson's work is best understood as an ongoing attempt to purge semantics of theoretical reifications. Seen in this light the recent attack on the notion of language itself emerges as a natural development of his Quinian scepticism towards 'meanings' and his rejections of reference-based semantic theories.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Modernity is marked by acrimonious debate over the form of the good society and the proper shape of politics. But these struggles are set within a frame that supports some arguments and rules other possibilities out of contention. If late-modernity is a time of danger as well as significant achievement, it is necessary to ask: how can we become more reflective about the economies of thought which have governed modern political discourse.

It includes new, previously unpublished material and case histories, presents the fundamental concepts of classification schemes, and critically appraises their practical application in industrial projects such as tunneling and mining.
