Sinossi

In "On the Theory of the Infinite in Modern Thought: Two Introductory Studies," Eleanor F. Jourdain explores the complexities of infinity as a concept that has bedeviled philosophers and mathematicians alike. Employing a rigorous analytical style, Jourdain discusses the evolution of the theory of the infinite, tracing its lineage through historical and contemporary thought. The book is structured into two parts, providing a conceptual framework that integrates mathematical rigor with philosophical inquiry. Jourdain elegantly navigates the intersections between science, mathematics, and metaphysics, making the abstract nature of infinity accessible to the reader while situating her discourse within the broader context of early 20th-century intellectual currents. Eleanor F. Jourdain was not only a significant figure in the field of mathematics education but also a pioneering female scholar whose pen was informed by her deep interest in the intersections of philosophy and mathematics. Her background in mathematics, further enriched by her engagement with the philosophical questions surrounding infinity, uniquely positioned her to produce a work that challenges conventional boundaries. Jourdain's contributions to the understanding of infinite concepts resonate within her own lived experiences as a trailblazer in academia during a time when such pursuits were often dominated by men. This book is highly recommended for readers interested in the philosophical underpinnings of mathematics, particularly those who wish to investigate the implications of infinity on modern thought. Jourdain's insights invite readers to contemplate the profound and often paradoxical nature of infinity and its influence on both mathematical theory and intellectual discourse. Scholars, students, and curious minds alike will find rich reflections within Jourdain's narrative that challenge and expand their understanding of this enigmatic concept.

    Our economy is designed by the 1 percent, for the 1 percent. This book offers a compelling vision of an equitable, ecologically sustainable alternative that meets the essential needs of all people. 
 
Seventy-one percent of the American people say the economy is rigged against them, and they're right. Marjorie Kelly and Ted Howard describe the current economic system as the Extractive Economy-it enables the financial elite to extract maximum gain for themselves, heedless of any damage to people or planet. As an alternative, they offer the Democratic Economy, which is responsive to the concerns of ordinary people and balances human consumption with the regenerative capacity of the earth. 
 
Kelly and Howard lay out seven principles of a Democratic Economy: Community, Inclusion, Place (keeping wealth local), Good Work (putting labor before capital), Democratized Ownership, Ethical Finance, and Sustainability. The book pairs each principle with a portrait of a place where it is being put into practice, from Pine Ridge to Portland to Cleveland to Preston, England, and more. This is a powerful, coherent, and achievable vision of an economy that serves the many, not the few.

    Chris is sixteen. He wants to do well at college, have fun with his mates, be a good boyfriend and son. But anxiety takes its grip and won't shake loose. This is his true story.

Chris Westoby takes us inside his past self, a teenager from a small English town. He's trying to be a good friend, student, son and boyfriend, but he struggles to be in company without wanting to hide. And things only get worse: it's nearly impossible to take the bus to college without catching the next bus home.

His obsessive germaphobia begins to destroy his life. How can one boy overcome all this? Chris gives an unflinching, raw account of his troubles and presents what he's has learned. This book offers an outstretched hand to those fighting these same battles, or to anyone who's watching someone else go through the same.

'The Fear Talking' does not promise to solve your problems, but it shows you that you're not alone. That's all Chris ever wanted, really; to unflinchingly capture the warmth and darkness of the teenage years.

    A deeply researched and poignant reflection on the practice of forgiveness in an unforgiving world 
 
 
 
In this sensitive and probing book, Matthew Ichihashi Potts explores the complex moral terrain of forgiveness, which he claims has too often served as a salve to the conscience of power rather than as an instrument of healing or justice. Though forgiveness is often linked with reconciliation or the abatement of anger, Potts resists these associations, asserting instead that forgiveness is simply the refusal of retaliatory violence through practices of penitence and grief. It is an act of mourning irrevocable wrong, of refusing the false promises of violent redemption, and of living in and with the losses we cannot recover. 
 
 
 
Drawing on novels by Kazuo Ishiguro, Marilynne Robinson, Louise Erdrich, and Toni Morrison, and on texts from the early Christian to the postmodern era, Potts diagnoses the real dangers of forgiveness yet insists upon its enduring promise. Sensitive to the twenty-first-century realities of economic inequality, colonial devastation, and racial strife, and considering the role of forgiveness in the New Testament, the Christian tradition, philosophy, and contemporary literature, this book heralds the arrival of a new and creative theological voice.
