DIMENSÕES DO PENSAMENTO: Estudos em Educação, Política, Ciência e Arte – Volume 1
“O livro Dimensões do Pensamento traz a público um conjunto de artigos transdisciplinares, nos quais os autores têm como escopo refletir sobre algumas situações pretéritas sobre as quais buscam compreender o passado como alternativa para melhor apreender o presente e assim prospectar um futuro mais humano. Vemos também um desejo de olhar a atualidade sob várias nuances, cujas perspectivas configuram um esforço para compreender os tempos em que vivemos, fato que dificulta bastante o trabalho do pesquisador que investiga o próprio momento histórico em que vive, o qual precisa atentar-se arduamente para não incorrer no erro de deixar que suas subjetividades sobreponham a objetividade necessária à pesquisa. É por valorizarmos o empenho dos pesquisadores e acreditarmos na capacidade de transformação na vida dos sujeitos advindos do ensino, da pesquisa e da extensão que recomendamos a leitura da obra em questão”.
A Metaphysics of Platonic Universals and their Instantiations
This book offers a detailed defense of a metaphysics of Platonic universals and a conception of particular objects that is coherent with said metaphysics. The work discusses all the main alternatives in metaphysics of properties and tries to show why universals are the entities that best satisfy the theoretical roles required for a property. The work also explains the advantages of Platonic over Aristotelian universals in the metaphysics of modality and natural laws. Moreover, it is argued that only Platonic universals are coherent with the grounding profile required for universals. The traditional objections against Platonism are discussed and answered. The third part of the book, finally, offers a conception of particular objects as nuclear bundles of tropes that is coherent with the Platonic ontology of universals. This book is of interest to anyone that wants to understand the current –and intricate– debate in metaphysics of properties and its incidence in many other areas in philosophy.
Mind, Language and Action
The volume takes on the much-needed task of describing and explaining the nature of the relations and interactions between mind, language and action in defining mentality. Papers by renowned philosophers unravel what is increasingly acknowledged to be the enacted nature of the mind, memory and language-acquisition, whilst also calling attention to Wittgenstein's contribution. The volume offers unprecedented insight, clarity, scope, and currency.
The Philosophy of Science
The more than forty readings in this anthology cover the most important developments of the past six decades, charting the rise and decline of logical positivism and the gradual emergence of a new consensus concerning the major issues and theoretical options in the field. As an introduction to the philosophy of science, it stands out for its scope, its coverage of both historical and contemporary developments, and its detailed introductions to each area discussed.
Musical Migrations
A dynamic and original collection of essays on the transnational circulation and changing social meanings of Latin music across the Americas. The transcultural impact of Latin American musical forms in the United States calls for a deeper understanding of the shifting cultural meanings of music. Musical Migrations examines the tensions between the value of Latin popular music as a metaphor for national identity and its transnational meanings as it traverses national borders, geocultural spaces, audiences, and historical periods. The anthology analyzes, among others, the role of popular music in Caribbean diasporas in the United States and Europe, the trans-Caribbean identities of Salsa and reggae, the racial, cultural, and ethnic hybridity in rock across the Americas, and the tensions between tradition and modernity in Peruvian indigenous music, mariachi music in the United States, and in Trinidadian music.

Quantum Mechanics
The author argues that quantum theory admits a plurality of interpretations, each aiding further understanding of the theory, but also advocating specifically the Copenhagen Variant of the Modal Interpretation.
