The Way of Thinking in Chinese Medicine
Chinese Medicine is an outstanding scientific proposition system with its own structural, methodological and theoretical prerequisites flowing into the specific practices that make Chinese Medicine popular in the Western world. However, we should be aware of the fact that Chinese Medicine is challenged in its existence because it is widely unknown. Fostering the understanding of Chinese Medicine in various aspects is, hence, the main aim of this book that gives interesting insights into the discussions on current developments in Chinese Medicine research.
Five Lectures on the Foundations of Chinese Medicine
The book contains the latest results of the research on the foundations of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), done by Professor Wallner from Vienna and a group of leading TCM specialists. The research on TCM does not deal with single medical concepts, but concentrates on its foundations, the structure and form of this medical science. It discusses the relation of TCM and Western Medicine, a concept of science, their peculiarities and differences, the problems of a thoughtless mixture. The book mainly presents five lectures by Professor Wallner about his latest research on the structure of TCM. Additionally, the book contains contributions from TCM specialists as Zhang Weibo, Lan Feng-Li, and Günter Gunia.
Regolith Exploration Geochemistry in Tropical and Subtropical Terrains
Hardbound. The use of exploration geochemistry has increased enormously in the last decade. The present volume specifically addresses those geochemical exploration practices appropriate for tropical, sub-tropical and adjacent areas - in environments ranging from rainforest to desert. Practical recommendations are made for the optimization of sampling, and analytical and interpretational procedures for exploration according to the particular nature of tropically weathered terrains. The underlying theme is the recognition that regions between 35N and 35S in particular have a common history of deep chemical weathering and lateritization during the late Mesozoic and early Tertiary. This has had a profound and lasting effect, so that the surface geochemical expressions of mineralization throughout these regions have many similar features, with local modification due to more recent weathering under changed climates.The volume discusses the da
Ethics under the Aspect of Constructive Realism
Ethics is a wide field which has contradicting argumentation. This book tries to open the foundations of ethics by the means of philosophical reasoning. It bridges the gap between the argumentation of ethics and the discussions in the philosophy of science.
Science, Medicine, and Culture
Constructive Realism, an increasingly discussed philosophy of science founded by the Viennese philosopher of science Fritz G. Wallner, is the core issue of the texts gathered in this volume. The authors either discuss the constructive-realistic view philosophically or present their research interpreted by the constructive-realistic doctrine. Constructive Realism inspires philosophy as well as natural science and humanities. This volume proves this inspiring feature of Constructive Realism. All texts are written by colleagues, friends and scholars of Fritz G. Wallner to honour his 60th birthday.
Aus dem Umfeld des konstruktiven Realismus
Die Beiträge aus dem Umfeld des Konstruktiven Realismus (CR) stammen aus der innovativen Psychotherapie-Wissenschaft, der neurokritischen Körper-Geist-Debatte und der komparativen Philosophie. Mit der Kombination von philosophischen und einzelwissenschaftlichen Texten offeriert das Buch dreierlei: einen wertvollen Überblick über Anwendungsmöglichkeiten konstruktiv-realistischer Prinzipien in unterschiedlichen Forschungszusammenhängen, vertiefte Einblicke in die charakteristischen Argumentationsstrukturen des Konstruktivismus Wienerischer Prägung (CR) im Kontrast zu epistemologischen Alternativen sowie einen Eindruck von aktuellen Tendenzen der kritischen Auseinandersetzung mit wissenschaftskulturellen Zeiterscheinungen.
Heilen in interkultureller Perspektive
Dieses Buch ist kein Lehrbuch im üblichen Sinn. Es stellt an den Leser spezifische Anforderungen. Er kann die angebotenen Informationen unmittelbar nicht anwenden, sondern muss eine spezifische Technik des Lesens entwickeln. Der Leser soll aktiv nachfragen, welche Möglichkeiten es für die Integration der vorliegenden Informationen gibt. Sein Lesen soll nicht rezeptiv sein, sondern er muss aktiv Fragen stellen. Um solche Fragen zu entwickeln, bietet ihm das Buch eine reichhaltige Auswahl. Es werden Themen aus der chinesischen Medizin aber auch alternativ medizinische Vorschläge aus Europa vorgestellt. Um den Umgang mit diesen Informationen fruchtbar zu machen, haben wir die Methodologie d...
The Meritocratic Promise of Classical Liberalism
In an era of Market Triumphalism, this book follows the quest to address a myriad of prominent socio-economic pathologies in Western democracies – such as skyrocketing financial inequality, marketization, hereditary privileges, as well as dysfunctional types of merit-based justice – without surrendering their liberal foundation altogether in favor of an entirely different political framework. The author argues that classical liberalism should be regarded as a valuable doctrine worth keeping, and that the liberal tradition is not inevitably destined to succumb into the neoliberal and increasingly plutocratic as well as nepotistic manifestation responsible for the growing discontentment wi...
Konzepte der ›exotischen‹ Tierwelt im Mittelalter
Wie fremd ein ›exotisches‹ Tier in einem mittelalterlichen Text beschrieben wird und welche proprietates dabei besonders betont werden, hängt ganz davon ab, welchen Diskursen die Darstellung unterliegt. Lassen sich in der mittelalterlichen Literatur universelle Wahrnehmungs-, Verstehens- und Deutungskonzepte erkennen, die in allen Beschreibungen ›exotischer‹ Tiere zum Tragen kommen und die auf eine kultur- und epochenübergreifende Tradition zurückgehen? Oder auch solche, die spezifisch nur in einem bestimmten mittelalterlichen Diskurs in Erscheinung treten? Um Antworten auf diese und weitere Fragen zu finden, werden im Rahmen eines interdisziplinären Untersuchungsansatzes fiktion...
