It focuses particularly on the work of Lukács, Korsch and Gramsci; Adorno, Marcuse and Benjamin; Sartre and Althusser; and Della Volpe and Colletti, together with other figures within Western Marxism from 1920 to 1975. The theoretical production of each of these thinkers is related simultaneously to the practical fate of working-class struggles and to the cultural mutations of bourgeois thought in their time. The philosophical antecedents of the various school within this tradition-Lukácsian, Gramscian, Frankfurt, Sartrean, Althusserian and Della Volpean-are compared, and the specific innovations of their respective systems surveyed. The structural unity of 'Western Marxism', beyond the diversity of its individual thinkers, is then assessed, in a balance-sheet that contrasts its heritage with the tradition of 'classical' Marxism that preceded it, and with the commanding problems which will confront any historical materialism to succeed it. ![]() Adam Bialek, "Combat aircraft of the USSR.

Nayar(auth.) 2012 | 270 Pages | ISBN: 1444338560 | PDF | 2 MB This accessible cultural history explores 400 years of British imperial adventure in India, developing a coherent narrative through a wide range of colonial documents, from exhibition catalogues to memoirs and travelogues. It shows how these texts helped legitimize the moral ambiguities of colonial rule even as they helped the English fashion themselves.An engaging examination of European colonizers' representations of native populationsAnalyzes colonial discourse through an impressive range of primary sources, including memoirs, letters, exhibition catalogues, administrative reports, and traveloguesSurveys 400 years of India's history, from the 16th century to the end of the British Empire Demonstrates how colonial discourses naturalized the racial and cultural differences between the English and the Indians, and controlled anxieties over these differencesContent: Chapter 1 Introducing Colonial Discourse (pages 1-11): Chapter 2 Travel, Exploration, and "Discovery" (pages 12-54): Chapter 3 The Discourse of Difference (pages 55-103): Chapter 4 Empire Management (pages 104-160): Chapter 5 Civilizing the Empire (pages 161-200): Chapter 6 Aesthetic Understanding (pages 201-234): ![]() Colloidal Ceramic Processing of Nano-, Micro-, and Macro-Particulate Systems, Volume 152 By 2006 | 151 Pages | ISBN: 1574982117 | PDF | 7 MB Colloidal processing has always been a major processing method. It facilitates control of particle interactions through a wide variety of schemes, which include surface coating, dispersion additives, and solvent control, among others. Controlling particle interactions also permits better resultant rheology and controlled green microstructures via a wide range of forming methods. In recent years, the particle size involved has been broadened into both the nanometer and the larger than micrometer ranges. This book covers fundamental issues encountered in colloidal processing nano-(less than 0.1 micron), micro-(from 0.1 to 5 micron) and macro-(larger than 5 micron) particulate systems and at the same time explore applications for these developments.Content: ![]() Colloid Stability: The Role of Surface Forces - Part II, Volume 2 By 2007 | 414 Pages | ISBN: 3527315039 | PDF | 4 MB The first modern approach to relate fundamental research to the applied science of colloids, this series bridges academic research and practical applications, thus providing the information vital to both. Written by the very top scientists in their respective disciplines, this volume discusses the nature of various forces, as well as the influence of surface forces on the stability of dispersions, their measurement and role in adsorbed polymers and liquid films.
