Ti Amo
A penetrating study of passion, suffering, and loss from one of Norway’s most tenacious writers: National Book Award Finalist and PEN translation prize winner Hanne Ørstavik Celebrated throughout the world for her candor and sensitivity to the rhythms of language, Hanne Ørstavik is a leading light on the international stage. Ørstavik writes with “a compulsion for truth that feels like [her] very life force itself.” Laced with a tingling frankness, Ørstavik’s prose adheres so closely to the inner workings of its narrator’s mind as to nearly undo itself. In Martin Aitken’s translation, Ørstavik’s piercing story sings. Ti Amo brings a new, deeply personal approach, as the nov...

Atoms, Molecules, and Light
With the publication in 1994 of Atomic, Molecular, and Optical Science: An Investment in the Future (the FAMOS report), the National Research Council launched the series Physics in a New Era, its latest survey of physics.

Walk Like a Man
Amraj "AJ" Rai was born into two worlds: one as a first-generation UK Punjabi Sikh, the other as a disabled child. From the onset, his parents were told that their eldest child would not amount to much in life due to his limited physical ability. Based on the real-life events of Amo Raju, Walk Like a Man follows the trials and tribulations of navigating a world not designed for disabled people. In Amo's case, it led to a hidden life of depression. Amo has battled societal norms as a disabled man to make his place in the world. He has overcome many obstacles and assumptions thrown at him, and he has made a real difference to the community around him. Walk Like a Man is co-authored by Mani Hayre, a writer who helped bring Amo's story to life through the eyes of our main protagonist AJ. AJ has his own yet very similar path, and in this semi-autobiographical book, you will walk right beside him facing no end of challenges in a life filled with meaning and purpose.

We give an extensive historical and philosophical introduction to Amo's life and work, and provide Latin texts, with facing translations and explanatory notes, of Amo's two philosophical dissertations, On the Impassivity of the Human Mind and the Philosophical Disputation containing a Distinct Idea of those Things that Pertain either to the Mind or to our Living and Organic Body, both published in 1734. The Impassivity is an extended argument that the mind cannot be acted on, that sensation is a being-acted-on by the ...
