<p><strong>The transformational possibilities of everyday hygiene and care practices</strong></p> <p>In order to mitigate the worst forecasts of climate change, many of us need to make drastic adjustments to how we live and what we consume. For Kelly Dombroski, these changes must also happen in the home: in rethinking routines of care and hygiene that still rely on disposable and plastic products. <em>Caring for Life</em> examines the remarkable evolution in Asia-Pacific hygiene practices and amplifies the creative work of ordinary people guarding human and more-than-human life in their everyday practices of care.</p> <p>Dombroski develops the concept of “guarding life,” a viewpoint that counters homogenous cultural practices and imposed sanitation standards and instead embraces diverse hygiene practices that are networked across varying wisdoms and bodies. She traces how the Chinese diaper-free infant toilet training practice of baniao has traveled to Australia and New Zealand, and she explores the practice of elimination communication, in which babies learn to communicate to their caregivers when they need to eliminate, thus removing the need for diapers. A mother herself, Dombroski conducted ethnographic research while mothering to examine how collectives of mothers draw on Chinese knowledge and their own embodied practices of childcare to create new hybrid forms of infant care.</p> <p><em>Caring for Life</em> is a call to action, a theory of change, and a fascinating account of the transformational possibilities of care practices. It shows how experiments in personal care can lead to collective, widespread change, ultimately providing a practical and hopeful vision for environmental action.</p> <p><strong>Retail e-book files for this title are screen-reader friendly with images accompanied by short alt text and/or extended descriptions.</strong></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Caring for Life A Postdevelopment Politics of Infant Hygiene【電子書籍】[ Kelly Dombroski ] 2,884 円

<p><strong>Grow your own food and medicine with a step-by-step guide from the founder of The Grow Network</strong></p> <p>Imagine cultivating enough food to slash your grocery shopping in half--all in less than an hour a day in your own backyard. Sounds impossible, right? Marjory Wildcraft says it's not: She's been homesteading for almost twenty years and founded The Grow Network to teach hundreds of thousands of others--some with very little space or time, some city dwellers with rooftop gardens--how to do the same, from gardening, to raising chickens, to composting, to medicine-making.</p> <p>Wildcraft started her homesteading journey in search of a more sustainable and financially secure way of life. As she says, self-sufficiency offers practical rewards, but the real payoff is "true wealth": health, family, community, meaningful work, and living a life with purpose. This empowering way of life is possible for anyone who has a patch of dirt, small or large. <em>The Grow System</em> includes:</p> <p><strong>?</strong> Essential advice for creating a balanced ecosystem in your backyard, with a basic recipe for homemade fertilizer<br /> <strong>?</strong> Step-by-step instructions for setting up a chicken coop and information on choosing the right breed<br /> <strong>?</strong> Home remedies for 12 common ailments, with 8 must-know medicine preparations.</p> <p><em>The Grow System</em> provides a comprehensive strategy for producing healthy food and herbal medicine at home, and reclaiming the skills our ancestors used every day. It helps connect us to the environment and empowers us to lead healthier lives, without relying on big systems that are out of our control and insecure. It offers a path to a rich, reliable, and deeply satisfying life.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 The Grow System True Health, Wealth, and Happiness Come from the Ground【電子書籍】[ Marjory Wildcraft ] 873 円

<p><strong>NATIONAL BESTSELLER ? From one of the world’s leading physicists and author of the Pulitzer Prize finalist <em>The Elegant Universe,</em> comes “an astonishing ride” through the universe (<em>The New York Times</em>) that makes us look at reality in a completely different way.</strong></p> <p>Space and time form the very fabric of the cosmos. Yet they remain among the most mysterious of concepts. Is space an entity? Why does time have a direction? Could the universe exist without space and time? Can we travel to the past? Greene has set himself a daunting task: to explain non-intuitive, mathematical concepts like String Theory, the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, and Inflationary Cosmology with analogies drawn from common experience. From Newton’s unchanging realm in which space and time are absolute, to Einstein’s fluid conception of spacetime, to quantum mechanics’ entangled arena where vastly distant objects can instantaneously coordinate their behavior, Greene takes us all, regardless of our scientific backgrounds, on an irresistible and revelatory journey to the new layers of reality that modern physics has discovered lying just beneath the surface of our everyday world.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 The Fabric of the Cosmos Space, Time, and the Texture of Reality【電子書籍】[ Brian Greene ] 1,498 円

<p><strong>On contemporary communication in its various human and nonhuman forms</strong></p> <p>Contemporary communication puts us not only in conversation with one another but also with our machinery. Machine communicationーto communicate not just via but also with machinesーis therefore the focus of this volume. Diving into digital communications history, Finn Brunton brings to the fore the alienness of computational communication by looking at network timekeeping, automated trolling, and early attempts at communication with extraterrestrial life. Picking up this fascination with inhuman communication, Mercedes Bunz then performs a close reading of interaction design and interfaces to show how technology addresses humans (as very young children). Finally, Paula Bialski shares her findings from a field study of software development, analyzing the communicative forms that occur when code is written by separate people. Today, communication unfolds merely between two or more conscious entities but often includes an invisible third party. Inspired by this drastic shift, this volume uncovers new meanings of what it means “to communicate.”</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Communication【電子書籍】[ Paula Bialski ] 1,923 円

<p><strong>A major new reading of a U.S. public health system shaped by fraught perceptions of culture, race, and criminality</strong></p> <p>At the heart of <em>Archiving Medical Violence</em> is an interrogation of the notions of national and scientific progress, marking an advance in scholarship that shows how such violence is both an engine of medical progress and, more broadly, the production of empire. It reads the medical archive through a lens that centers how it is produced, remembered, and contested within cultural production and critical memory.</p> <p>In this innovative and interdisciplinary book, Christopher Perreira argues that it is in the contradictions of settler colonialism and racial capitalism that we find how medical violence is narrated as a public good. He presents case studies from across a range of locationsーHawai‘i, California, Louisiana, Guatemalaーand historical periods from the nineteenth century on. Examining national and scientific conceptions of progress through the lens of medicine and public health, he places official archives in dialogue with visual and literary works, patient writing, and more.</p> <p><em>Archiving Medical Violence</em> explores the contested public terrains for narrating value and vulnerabilities, bodies and geographical locations. Ultimately, Perreira reveals for us a medical imaginary built on racialized criminality driving contemporary politics of citizenship, memory, and identity.</p> <p><strong>Retail e-book files for this title are screen-reader friendly with images accompanied by short alt text and/or extended descriptions.</strong></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Archiving Medical Violence Consent and the Carceral State【電子書籍】[ Christopher Perreira ] 2,671 円

<p><strong>A timely ethnography of how Indonesia’s coastal dwellers inhabit the “chronic present” of a slow-motion natural disaster</strong></p> <p>Ice caps are melting, seas are rising, and densely populated cities worldwide are threatened by floodwaters, especially in Southeast Asia. <em>Building on Borrowed Time</em> is a timely and powerful ethnography of how people in Semarang, Indonesia, on the north coast of Java, are dealing with this global warming?driven existential challenge. In addition to antiflooding infrastructure breaking down, vast areas of cities like Semarang and Jakarta are rapidly sinking, affecting the very foundations of urban life: toxic water oozes through the floors of houses, bridges are submerged, traffic is interrupted.</p> <p>As Lukas Ley shows, the residents of Semarang are constantly engaged in maintaining their homes and streets, trying to live through a slow-motion disaster shaped by the interacting temporalities of infrastructural failure, ecological deterioration, and urban development. He casts this predicament through the temporal lens of a “meantime,” a managerial response that means a constant enduring of the present rather than progress toward a better futureーa “chronic present.”</p> <p><em>Building on Borrowed Time</em> takes us to a place where a flood crisis has already arrivedーwhere everyday residents are not waiting for the effects of climate change but are in fact already living with itーand shows that life in coastal Southeast Asia is defined not by the temporality of climate science but by the lived experience of tidal flooding.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Building on Borrowed Time Rising Seas and Failing Infrastructure in Semarang【電子書籍】[ Lukas Ley ] 2,884 円

<p><strong>How popular debates about the so-called digital generation mediate anxieties about labor and life in twenty-first-century America</strong></p> <p>“The children are our future” goes the adage, a proclamation that simultaneously declares both anxiety as well as hope about youth as the next generation. In <em>The Digital Is Kid Stuff</em>, Josef Nguyen interrogates this ambivalence within discussions about today’s “digital generation” and the future of creativity, an ambivalence that toggles between the techno-pessimism that warns against the harm to children of too much screen time and a techno-utopianism that foresees these “digital natives” leading the way to innovation, economic growth, increased democratization, and national prosperity.</p> <p>Nguyen engages cultural histories of childhood, youth, and creativity through chapters that are each anchored to a particular digital media object or practice. Nguyen narrates the developmental arc of a future creative laborer: from a young kid playing the island fictions of <em>Minecraft</em>, to an older child learning do-it-yourself skills while reading <em>Make</em> magazine, to a teenager posting selfies on Instagram, to a young adult creative laborer imagining technological innovations using design fiction.</p> <p>Focusing on the constructions and valorizations of creativity, entrepreneurialism, and technological savvy, Nguyen argues that contemporary culture operates to assuage profound anxieties aboutーand to defuse valid critiques ofーboth emerging digital technologies and the precarity of employment for “creative laborers” in twenty-first-century neoliberal America.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 The Digital Is Kid Stuff Making Creative Laborers for a Precarious Economy【電子書籍】[ Josef Nguyen ] 2,884 円

<p><strong>A study of Palestine-Israel through the unexpected lens of nature conservation</strong></p> <p><em>Settling Nature</em> documents the widespread ecological warfare practiced by the state of Israel. Recruited to the front lines are fallow deer, gazelles, wild asses, griffon vultures, pine trees, and cowsーon the Israeli sideーagainst goats, camels, olive trees, hybrid goldfinches, and akkoubーwhich are affiliated with the Palestinian side. These nonhuman soldiers are all the more effective because nature camouflages their tactical deployment as such.</p> <p>Drawing on more than seventy interviews with Israel’s nature officials and on observations of their work, this book examines the careful orchestration of this animated warfare by Israel’s nature administration on both sides of the Green Line. Alongside its powerful protection of wildlife biodiversity, the territorial reach of Israel’s nature protection is remarkable: to date, nearly 25 percent of the country’s total land mass is assigned as a park or a reserve. <em>Settling Nature</em> argues that the administration of nature advances the Zionist project of Jewish settlement and the corresponding dispossession of non-Jews from this space.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Settling Nature The Conservation Regime in Palestine-Israel【電子書籍】[ Irus Braverman ] 3,098 円

<p><strong>An event-by-event look at how institutionalized racism harms the health of African Americans in the twenty-first century</strong></p> <p>A crucial component of anti-Black racism is the unconscionable disparity in health outcomes between Black and white Americans. <em>Sickening</em> examines this institutionalized inequality through dramatic, concrete events from the past two decades, revealing how unequal living conditions and inadequate medical care have become routine.</p> <p>From the spike in chronic disease after Hurricane Katrina to the lack of protection for Black residents during the Flint water crisisーand even the life-threatening childbirth experience for tennis star Serena Williamsーauthor Anne Pollock takes readers on a journey through the diversity of anti-Black racism operating in healthcare.

Ultimately, <em>Sickening</em> shows what these shocking events reveal about the everyday racialization of health in the United States.</p> <p>Concluding with a vital examination of racialized healthcare during the COVID pandemic and the Black Lives Matter rebellions of 2020, <em>Sickening</em> cuts through the mind-numbing statistics to vividly portray healthcare inequalities.

<p><strong>A pointed look at the state of tech-based mental healthcare and what we must do to change it</strong></p> <p>Proponents of technology trumpet it as the solution to the massive increase in the mental distress that confronts our nation. They herald the arrival of algorithms, intelligent chatbots, smartphone applications, telemental healthcare services, and moreーbut are these technological fixes really as good as they seem? In <em>Therapy Tech</em>, Emma Bedor Hiland presents the first comprehensive study of how technology has transformed mental healthcare, showing that this revolution can’t deliver what it promises.</p> <p>Far from providing a solution, technological mental healthcare perpetuates preexisting disparities while relying on the same failed focus on personal responsibility that has let us down before. Through vivid, in-depth case studies, <em>Therapy Tech</em> reveals these problems, covering issues including psychosurveillance on websites like Facebook and 7 Cups of Tea, shortcomings of popular AI “doctors on demand” like Woebot, Wysa, and Joy, and even how therapists are being conscripted into the gig economy.</p> <p>Featuring a vital coda that brings <em>Therapy Tech</em> up to date for the COVID era, this book is the first to give readers a large-scale analysis of mental health technologies and the cultural changes they have enabled. Both a sobering dissection of the current state of mental health and a necessary warning of where things are headed, Therapy Tech makes an important assertion about how to help those in need of mental health services today.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Therapy Tech The Digital Transformation of Mental Healthcare【電子書籍】[ Emma Bedor Hiland ] 2,671 円

Here, Shiloh Krupar investigates the racially inequitable effects of elite U.S. hospitals on their surrounding neighborhoods and their role in consolidating frontiers of land primed for redevelopment.</p> <p>Naming this frontier “medical brownfields,” Krupar shows how hospitals leverage their domestic real estate empires to underwrite international prospecting for patients and overseas services and specialty clinics. Her pointed analysis reveals that decolonizing health care efforts must scrutinize the land practices of nonprofit medical institutions and the liberal foundations of medical apartheid perpetuated by globalizing American health care.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Health Colonialism Urban Wastelands and Hospital Frontiers【電子書籍】[ Shiloh Krupar ] 562 円

<p><strong>Something is going wrong on many college campuses in the last few years. Rates of anxiety, depression, and suicide are rising. Speakers are shouted down. Students and professors say they are walking on eggshells and afraid to speak honestly. How did this happen?</strong></p> <p>First Amendment expert Greg Lukianoff and social psychologist Jonathan Haidt show how the new problems on campus have their origins in three terrible ideas that have become increasingly woven into American childhood and education: what doesn’t kill you makes you weaker; always trust your feelings; and life is a battle between good people and evil people. These three Great Untruths are incompatible with basic psychological principles, as well as ancient wisdom from many cultures. They interfere with healthy development. Anyone who embraces these untruthsーand the resulting culture of safetyismーis less likely to become an autonomous adult able to navigate the bumpy road of life.</p> <p>Lukianoff and Haidt investigate the many social trends that have intersected to produce these untruths. They situate the conflicts on campus in the context of America’s rapidly rising political polarization, including a rise in hate crimes and off-campus provocation. They explore changes in childhood including the rise of fearful parenting, the decline of unsupervised play, and the new world of social media that has engulfed teenagers in the last decade.</p> <p>This is a book for anyone who is confused by what is happening on college campuses today, or has children, or is concerned about the growing inability of Americans to live, work, and cooperate across party lines.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 The Coddling of the American Mind How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas Are Setting Up a Generation for Failure【電子書籍】[ Greg Lukianoff ] 1,872 円

<p><strong>From ancient megalodons to fearsome Great Whites, this book tells the complete, untold story of how sharks emerged as Earth’s ultimate survivors, by world-leading paleontologist John Long.</strong></p> <p><strong>“Will keep you on the edge of your seat from its first page to its last page.”ーJared Diamond, Pulitzer Prize?winning author of <em>Guns, Germs, and Steel</em></strong></p> <p>Sharks have been fighting for their lives for 500 million years and today are under dire threat. They are the longest-surviving vertebrate on Earth, outlasting multiple mass extinction events that decimated life on the planet. But how did they thrive for so long? By developing superpower-like abilities that allowed them to ascend to the top of the oceanic food chain.</p> <p>John Long, who for decades has been on the cutting edge of shark research, weaves a thrilling story of sharks’ unparalleled reign. <em>The Secret History of Sharks</em> showcases the global search to discover sharks’ largely unknown evolution, led by Long and dozens of other extraordinary scientists. They embark on digs to all seven continents, investigating layers of rock and using cutting-edge technology to reveal never-before-found fossils and the clues to sharks’ singular story.</p> <p>As the tale unfolds, Longintroduces an enormous range of astonishing organisms: a thirty-foot-long shark with a deadly saw blade of jagged teeth protruding from its lower jaws, a monster giant clams crusher, and bizarre sharks fossilized while in their mating ritual. The book also includes startling new facts about the mighty megalodon, with its sixty-six-foot-long body, massive jaws, and six-inch serrated teeth.</p> <p>With insights into the threats to sharks today, how they contribute to medical advances, and the lessons they can teach us about our own survival, <em>The Secret History of Sharks</em> is a riveting look at scientific discovery with ramifications far beyond the ocean.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 The Secret History of Sharks The Rise of the Ocean's Most Fearsome Predators【電子書籍】[ John Long ] 1,872 円

<p><strong>A complete history and theory of internet daemons brings these little-knownーbut very consequentialーprograms into the spotlight</strong></p> <p>We’re used to talking about how tech giants like Google, Facebook, and Amazon rule the internet, but what about daemons? Ubiquitous programs that have colonized the Net’s infrastructureーas well as the devices we use to access itーdaemons are little known. Fenwick McKelvey weaves together history, theory, and policy to give a full account of where daemons come from and how they influence our livesーincluding their role in hot-button issues like network neutrality.</p> <p>Going back to Victorian times and the popular thought experiment Maxwell’s Demon, McKelvey charts how daemons evolved from concept to reality, eventually blossoming into the pandaemonium of code-based creatures that today orchestrates our internet.

<p>The majestic Cascade Mountains serve as the centerpiece for the Northwest's renowned beauty, with their rugged, snow-capped peaks drawing thousands of visitors to their flanks each summer. Several of the region's national parks are centered on these mountains, including North Cascades National Park, Mount Rainier National Park, and Crater Lake National Park.</p> <p>Underlying their elegance, however, is the disquieting fact that the range's major peaks are potentially hazardous volcanoes. On average, two eruptions occur per century. In the last century, explosive eruptions at Lassen Peak and Mount St. Helens left onlookers in awe.</p> <p>This easy-to-understand book provides residents and visitors with a good understanding of each peak's distinctive nature and how the volcanoes are linked by their geologic underpinnings. Accessible prose by award-winning science writer Richard L. Hill, paired with clear illustrations and photographs, show each peak's individual characteristics, as well as the plate processes at work beneath them.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Volcanoes of the Cascades Their Rise And Their Risks【電子書籍】[ Richard Hill ] 2,140 円

<p>**An instant <em>New York Times</em> bestseller!</p> <p>A <em>New York Times</em> Notable Book of 2023</p> <p>Named a Best Book of 2023 by <em>Publishers Weekly</em></p> <p>From the author of <em>The Genius of Birds</em> and <em>The Bird Way</em>, a brilliant scientific investigation into owlsーthe most elusive of birdsーand why they exert such a hold on human imagination**</p> <p>With their forward gaze and quiet flight, owls are often a symbol of wisdom, knowledge, and foresight. But what does an owl really know? And what do we really know about owls? Some two hundred sixty species of owls exist today, and they reside on every continent except Antarctica, but they are far more difficult to find and study than other birds because they are cryptic, camouflaged, and mostly active at night. Though human fascination with owls goes back centuries, scientists have only recently begun to understand the complex nature of these extraordinary birds.</p> <p>In <em>What an Owl Knows</em>, Jennifer Ackerman joins scientists in the field and explores how researchers are using modern technology and tools to learn how owls communicate, hunt, court, mate, raise their young, and move about from season to season. Ackerman brings this research alive with her own personal field observations; the result is an awe-inspiring exploration of owls across the globe and through human history, and a spellbinding account of the world’s most enigmatic group of birds.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 What an Owl Knows The New Science of the World's Most Enigmatic Birds【電子書籍】[ Jennifer Ackerman ] 1,997 円

<p><strong>Why the global health project to avert emerging microbes continually fails</strong></p> <p>In 1989, a group of U.S. government scientists met to discuss some surprising findings: new diseases were appearing around the world, and viruses that they thought long vanquished were resurfacing. Their appearance heralded a future perpetually threatened by unforeseeable biological risks, sparking a new concept of disease: the “emerging microbe.” With the Cold War nearing its end, American scientists and security experts turned to confront this new “enemy,” redirecting national security against its risky horizons. In order to be fought, emerging microbes first needed to be made perceptible; but how could something immaterial, unknowable, and ever mutating be coaxed into visibility, knowability, and operability?</p> <p><em>Microbial Resolution</em> charts the U.S.-led war on the emerging microbe to show how their uncertain futures were transformed into objects of global science and security. Moving beyond familiar accounts that link scientific knowledge production to optical practices of visualizing the invisible, Gloria Chan-Sook Kim develops a theory of “microbial resolution” to analyze the complex problematic that arises when dealing with these entities: what can be seen when there is nothing to see? Through a syncretic analysis of data mining, animal-tracking technologies, media networks, computer-modeled futures, and global ecologies and infrastructures, she shows how a visual impasseーthe impossibility of seeing microbial futuresーforms the basis for new modes of perceiving, knowing, and governing in the present.</p> <p>Timely and thought provoking, <em>Microbial Resolution</em> opens up the rich paradoxes, irreconcilabilities, and failures inherent in this project and demonstrates how these tensions profoundly animate twenty-first-century epistemologies, aesthetics, affects, and ecologies.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Microbial Resolution Visualization and Security in the War against Emerging Microbes【電子書籍】[ Gloria Chan-Sook Kim ] 2,991 円

<p><strong>How analyzing scientific practices can alter debates on the relationship between science and reality</strong></p> <p>Numerous scholarly works focus solely on scientific metaphysics or biological practice, but few attempt to bridge the two subjects. This volume, the latest in the Minnesota Studies in the Philosophy of Science series, explores what a scientific metaphysics grounded in biological practices could look like and how it might impact the way we investigate the world around us.</p> <p><em>From Biological Practice to Scientific Metaphysics</em> examines how to reconcile the methods of biological practice with the methods of metaphysical cosmology, notably regarding the origins of life. The contributors take up a wide range of traditional metaphysics and philosophy of science topics, including natural kinds, medicine, ecology, genetics, scientific pluralism, reductionism, operationalism, mechanisms, the nature of information, and more. Many of the chapters represent the first philosophical treatments of significant biological practices.</p> <p>From causality and complexity to niche constructions and inference, the contributors review and discuss long-held objections to metaphysics by natural scientists. They illuminate how, in order to learn about the world as it truly is, we must look not only at what scientists say but also what they do: for ontology cannot be read directly from scientific claims.</p> <p>Contributors: Richard Creath, Arizona State U; Marc Ereshefsky, U of Calgary; Marie I. Kaiser, Bielefeld U; Thomas A. C. Reydon, Leibniz U Hannover and Michigan State U; Lauren N. Ross, U of California, Irvine; Rose Trappes, U of Exeter; Marcel Weber, U of Geneva; William C.

<p><strong>An inquiry into how livestreaming can help us meaningfully connect</strong></p> <p><em>Livestreaming</em> is ubiquitous in our Covid-19-inflected era. In this book, EL Putnam takes up the implications of this technology, arguing that livestreamed internet broadcasts perform aesthetic and ethical encounters that invite distinctive means of relating to others. Treating humans and technologies as inherently relational, Putnam considers how livestreaming constitutes new patterns of being together that are complex, ambivalent, and transformative. Understood in such a way, we see how livestreaming exceeds quantifying and calculating metrics, challenges emphasis on content generation, and introduces an entirely newーand dynamicーmeans of social engagement.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Livestreaming An Aesthetics and Ethics of Technical Encounter【電子書籍】[ EL Putnam ] 562 円

<p><strong>Amid the historical decimation of species around the globe, a new way into the language of loss</strong></p> <p>An endling is the last known individual of a species; when that individual dies, the species becomes extinct. These “last individuals” are poignant characters in the stories that humans tell themselves about today’s Anthropocene. In this evocative work, Lydia Pyne explores how discussion about endlingsーhow we tell their historiesーdraws on deep traditions of storytelling across a variety of narrative types that go well beyond the science of these species’ biology or their evolutionary history.</p> <p><em>Endlings</em> provides a useful and thoughtful discussion of species concepts: how species start and how (and why) they end, what it means to be a “charismatic” species, the effects of rewilding, and what makes species extinction different in this era. From Benjamin the thylacine to Celia the ibex to Lonesome George the Gal?pagos tortoise, endlings, Pyne shows, have the power to shape how we think about grief, mourning, and loss amid the world’s sixth mass extinction.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Endlings Fables for the Anthropocene【電子書籍】[ Lydia Pyne ] 562 円

<p>Ungew?hnlich hei?e Sommer, Superst?rme, Dauerregen, ?berschwemmungen ? der Klimawandel ist da. Das Bestsellerduo Bonner/Weiss ("Generation Doof") nimmt sich in "Generation Weltuntergang" die Erderw?rmung und den Klimawandel vor und sagt, wie es so weit kommen konnte, wie sehr uns die klimatischen Ver?nderungen betreffen und was wir jetzt tun m?ssen.<br /> Obwohl in den Nachrichten Daueralarm herrscht, das Wetter Kapriolen schl?gt, der Meeresspiegel steigt und die Pole schmelzen, wettern Scharfmacher allerorten gegen die Klimawissenschaft, und die Politiker haben keinen Plan. Und wir selbst sehen dem Geschehen hilflos zu oder stecken den Kopf in den Sand. Denn was k?nnen wir schon tun? Eine ganze Menge, sagen Stefan Bonner und Anne Weiss.<br /> In "Generation Weltuntergang" erz?hlen sie auf aufr?ttelnde und zugleich leicht verstehbare Weise die Geschichte des Klimawandels und sagen, welche Konsequenzen er f?r unser aller Leben hat. Denn letztlich geht es um nichts weniger als die Frage: Ist die Menschheit noch zu retten oder sind wir die die Letzten unserer Art?</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Generation Weltuntergang Warum wir schon mitten im Klimawandel stecken, wie schlimm es wird und was wir jetzt tun m?ssen【電子書籍】[ Stefan Bonner ] 1,700 円

<p><strong>A groundbreaking twentieth-century history of transgender children</strong></p> <p>With transgender rights front and center in American politics, media, and culture, the pervasive myth still exists that today’s transgender children are a brand new generationーpioneers in a field of new obstacles and hurdles. <em>Histories of the Transgender Child</em> shatters this myth, uncovering a previously unknown twentieth-century history when transgender children not only existed but preexisted the term transgender and its predecessors, playing a central role in the medicalization of trans people, and all sex and gender.</p> <p>Beginning with the early 1900s when children with “ambiguous” sex first sought medical attention, to the 1930s when transgender people began to seek out doctors involved in altering children’s sex, to the invention of the category gender, and finally the 1960s and ’70s when, as the field institutionalized, transgender children began to take hormones, change their names, and even access gender confirmation, Julian Gill-Peterson reconstructs the medicalization and racialization of children’s bodies. Throughout, they foreground the racial history of medicine that excludes black and trans of color children through the concept of gender’s plasticity, placing race at the center of their analysis and at the center of transgender studies.</p> <p>Until now, little has been known about early transgender history and life and its relevance to children. Using a wealth of archival research from hospitals and clinics, including incredible personal letters from children to doctors, as well as scientific and medical literature, this book reaches back to the first half of the twentieth centuryーa time when the category transgender was not available but surely existed, in the lives of children and parents.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Histories of the Transgender Child【電子書籍】[ Jules Gill-Peterson ] 2,665 円
