"Wznowienie jednej z najważniejszych książek ks. Józefa Tischnera − wyboru esejów z lat 1993-1997 poświęconych dylematom polskiej religijności, stosunkowi Kościoła do demokracji i współczesnego świata, problematyce władzy, wolności i wiary. Opisując chrześcijaństwo jako religię apelującą przede wszystkim do wolności człowieka, Tischner wskazuje jednocześnie na niebezpieczeństwa, które rodzą integrystyczne tęsknoty części polskich katolików. Spór ze zwolennikami upolitycznienia religii i „ukościelnienia” państwa przeradza się w obronę tego, co w chrześcijaństwie zasadnicze: dialogu miłości między Bogiem a człowiekiem. "

The Psychology of Emotion commences with a discussion of the nature of theory and its appraisal. This is both in general and also in the field of emotion in particular. Theories of emotion are categorized and then considered from several bases. These include: experience, behaviour, physiology, cognition, specific emotions, development, social, clinical, individual differences, philosophy, sociology, anthropology, culture, linguistics, and history. Themes are abstracted including, for example, biology, gender, social, constructionism, and post-modernism. The author presents these theoretical issues, encompassing most current emotion theories, including some of the past, and extends the issues further than the field of psychology. He goes on to make authoritative judgements about the relative merits of the theories and, finally, extracts whatever common themes there might be.
The multi-disciplinary approach taken should appeal to those investigating emotion in the fields of philosophy and the social sciences, as well as to psychology students and lecturers. Those studying or teaching emotion should find this book a valuable resource.
Welcome to the world of Biblical women, uniquely revealed in this book, a cornucopia of ancient sources, first among them the Holy Scripture, along with photographs and drawings of rare and beautiful finds unearthed in the Holy Land and other Bible lands.

In the most comprehensive examination to date of Heidegger’s Nazism, Emmanuel Faye draws on previously unavailable materials to paint a damning picture of Nazism’s influence on the philosopher’s thought and politics. In this provocative book, Faye uses excerpts from unpublished seminars to show that Heidegger’s philosophical writings are fatally compromised by an adherence to National Socialist ideas. In other documents, Faye finds expressions of racism and exterminatory anti-Semitism. Faye disputes the view of Heidegger as a na�ve, temporarily disoriented academician and instead shows him to have been a self-appointed “spiritual guide” for Nazism whose intentionality was clear...
