Early Ethical Writings of Aurel Kolnai - Francis Dunlop - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Early Ethical Writings of Aurel Kolnai - Francis Dunlop - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

This title was first published in 2002: Kolnai''s later work in moral philosophy is well-known, and interest in it continues to grow, but his dissertation, Ethical Value and Reality, has received little attention - although Kolnai himself said that it contains the germs of nearly all his subsequent thought. This first English translation of the dissertation and of two related papers from the same period will enable the English-speaking reader to explore Kolnai''s ethical work as a whole. In Ethical Value and Reality Kolnai proposes a ''completion'' of phenomenological value-ethics which takes account of ''the embeddedness of ethical values in reality''. Kolnai explores moral psychology and offers important perspectives on political activity in its moral dimensions, on the relation between morality and religion, and on the relation between the moral point of view and the psycho-therapeutic. Dunlop''s comprehensive introduction to the translation provides the reader with assistance in understanding the text, setting it in its contemporary context, and relating it to Kolnai''s subsequent writings.

The Life and Thought of Aurel Kolnai - Francis Dunlop - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Life and Thought of Aurel Kolnai - Francis Dunlop - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

This title was first published in 2002: ’I sincerely believe that Dr Kolnai is one of the most original and stimulating thinkers in the field of political philosophy alive today.’ Karl Popper Kolnai''s moral and political thought was developed against the background of Liberal and then Bolshevist revolutions in Hungary, the gradual move towards fascism in twenties and thirties Vienna, and the progress of the Second World War as seen from the USA. Born a Jew, he became a Roman Catholic, and lived successively in Hungary, Austria, France, the USA, Canada and England. He remained, throughout his extraordinary life, a passionate believer in reason and common sense, and the sworn enemy of all philosophical and political systems. Study of Kolnai has been hampered by political developments, his own peripatetic life, and the fact that his writings appeared in five different languages, yet interest in Kolnai is now growing. This book offers the first comprehensive picture of Kolnai''s complete works and life. Dunlop presents Kolnai the man in his social and political setting, and offers an accessible exploration of all his writings, whether published or not, including translated passages from papers and letters in Kolnai''s various languages. Including a selective bibliography of Kolnai''s works, this book presents an important study of this unique political and moral philosopher, showing his relevance in contemporary philosophical thought.

Radiophysical and Geomagnetic Effects of Rocket Burn and Launch in the Near-the-Earth Environment - Leonid F. (kharkiv V.n. Karazin National

Radiophysical and Geomagnetic Effects of Rocket Burn and Launch in the Near-the-Earth Environment - Leonid F. (kharkiv V.n. Karazin National

Radiophysical and Geomagnetic Effects of Rocket Burn and Launch in the Near-the-Earth Environment describes experimental and theoretical studies on the effects of rocket burns and launchings on the near-the-Earth environment and geomagnetic fields. It illuminates the main geophysical and radiophysical effects on the ionosphere and magnetosphere surrounding the Earth that accompany rocket or cosmic apparatus burns and launchings from 1,000 to 10,000 kilometers. The book analyzes the disturbances of plasma and the ambient magnetic and electric fields in the near-Earth environment from rocket burns and launchings from Russia, Kazakhstan, the United States, China, France, and other global space centers. Describing the radiophysical effects of rocket burn and launching in the middle and upper ionosphere, it focuses on the ecological consequences of space exploration—detailing methods for eliminating the harmful effects of space exploration. Measurements for the studies presented in the book were carried out using numerous radiophysical methods and techniques, including HF Doppler radar, incoherent and coherent scatter radar systems, microwave radar, magnetometer, and optical instrumentation and spectroscopy. The book analyzes the effects of rocket burns and launchings from 1975 to 2010 in worldwide launch campaigns. This book is an ideal reference for scientists in geophysics and radiophysics, specialists in rocket launching, and ecologists. It is also suitable as a fundamental handbook for graduate and postgraduate students taking physics and cosmic sciences courses at the university level.
