 Cosmology in the Early Modern Age: A Web of Ideas by Paolo Bussotti , Brunello Lotti English | PDF,EPUB | 2023 | 346 Pages | ISBN : 3031121945 | 14.8 MB This volume addresses the history and epistemology of early modern cosmology. The authors reconstruct the development of cosmological ideas in the age of 'scientific revolution' from Copernicus to Leibniz, taking into account the growth of a unified celestial-and-terrestrial mechanics. The volume investigates how, in the rise of the new science, cosmology displayed deep and multifaceted interrelations between scientific notions (stemming from mechanics, mathematics, geometry, astronomy) and philosophical concepts. These were employed to frame a general picture of the universe, as well as to criticize and interpret scientific notions and observational data.  Cosmology and Particle Astrophysics by Lars Bergström , Ariel Goobar English | PDF(True) | 2004 | 375 Pages | ISBN : 3540329242 | 4.5 MB Beginning with some basic facts about the observable universe the authors consider in successive chapters the complete range of topics that make up a degree course in cosmology and particle astrophysics. The outstanding feature of this book is that it is self-contained, in that no specialised knowledge is required on the part of the reader, apart from basic undergraduate mathematics and physics.  Corporate Financial Distress: Restructuring and Turnaround English | 2021 | ISBN: 1839829818 | 185 Pages | PDF (True) | 4 MB Financial distress in corporations is a frequent phenomenon, particularly during times of national and international economic crises; but this can be used as an opportunity and incentive to implement a systematic process of reorganization and revitalization of a business.

Crises, if managed promptly from a strategic point of view, can lead to pragmatic changes and bring new value to the company, avoiding market foreclosure and the negative social consequences.

 Contract, Culture, and Citizenship: Transformative Liberalism from Hobbes to Rawls By Mark E. Button 2008 | 280 Pages | ISBN: 0271033819 | PDF | 9 MB The idea of the social contract has typically been seen in political theory as legitimating the exercise of governmental power and creating the moral basis for political order. Mark Button wants to draw our attention to an equally crucial, but seldom emphasized, role for the social contract: its educative function in cultivating the habits and virtues that citizens need to fulfill the promises that the social contract represents.In this book, he retells the story of social contract theory as developed by some of its major proponents--Hobbes, Locke, Rousseau, and Rawls--highlighting this constructive feature of the theory in order to show that not only do citizens make the social contract, but the social contract also makes citizens.Button's interest in recovering this theme from past political theory is not merely historical, however. He means to resurrect our concern for it so that we can better understand the political-institutional and cultural-ethical conditions necessary for balancing individual freedom and common citizenship in our modern world of moral pluralism. Drawing on the history of public reason, Button shows how political justification continues to depend upon an ethics of character formation and why this matters for citizens today.  Contested Languages By Marco Tamburelli (editor), Mauro Tosco (editor) 2021 | 277 Pages | ISBN: 9027208042 | PDF | 9 MB This is the first volume entirely dedicated to contested languages. While generally listed in international language atlases, contested languages usually fall through the cracks of research: excluded from the literature on minority languages and treated as mere ensembles of geographically defined varieties by traditional dialectology. This volume investigates the nature of contested languages, the role language ideologies play in the perception of these languages, the contribution of academic discourse to the formation and perpetuation of language contestedness, and the damage contestedness causes to linguistic communities and ultimately to linguistic diversity. Various situations and degrees of language contestedness are presented and analysed, along with theoretical considerations, exploring potential roads to recognition and issues in language planning that arise from language contestedness. Addressing the "language vs dialect" question head on, the volume opens up new perspectives that are relevant to all students and researchers interested in the maintenance of linguistic diversity.
