Set theory is an autonomous and sophisticated field of mathematics that is extremely successful at analyzing mathematical propositions and gauging their consistency strength. It is as a field of mathematics that both proceeds with its own internal questions and is capable of contextualizing over a broad range, which makes set theory an intriguing and highly distinctive subject. This handbook covers the rich history of scientific turning points in set theory, providing fresh insights and points of view. Written by leading researchers in the field, both this volume and the Handbook as a whole are definitive reference tools for senior undergraduates, graduate students and researchers in mathematics, the history of philosophy, and any discipline such as computer science, cognitive psychology, and artificial intelligence, for whom the historical background of his or her work is a salient consideration - Serves as a singular contribution to the intellectual history of the 20th century - Contains the latest scholarly discoveries and interpretative insights

Elijah Baley nyomozó a Földről érkezik az Aurora bolygóra, hogy fényt derítsen egy különös robotgyilkosság rejtélyére. Az első számú gyanúsított dr. Fastolfe, egy neves robotszakértő, akinek a tudása, az indítéka és a lehetősége is megvolt a bűntett elkövetésére. Csak egyetlen bökkenő van: Baley-nek és robottársának, R.

Ebben az esetben ugyanis, amelyhez egy hatalmi harc és egy nem mindennapi szerelem is kapcsolódik, nem egyszerűen az igazságszolgáltatás a tét, hanem a túlnépesedett Föld sorsa is. A robotika atyjaként számon tartott Asimov harmadik robotregénye, amelyben a szerző ezúttal is a krimi és a sci-fi zsánerét ötvözi, és a robotok viselkedését szabályozó törvényeken keresztül az emberi lélek mozgatórugóit tárja fel.

White Backlash provides an authoritative assessment of how immigration is reshaping the politics of the nation. Using an array of data and analysis, Marisa Abrajano and Zoltan Hajnal show that fears about immigration fundamentally influence white Americans' core political identities, policy preferences, and electoral choices, and that these concerns are at the heart of a large-scale defection of whites from the Democratic to the Republican Party. Abrajano and Hajnal demonstrate that this political backlash has disquieting implications for the future of race relations in America. White Americans' concerns about Latinos and immigration have led to support for policies that are less generous an...
