Sommario/riassunto

By analysing the work of Schutz, Gurwitsch, Merleau-Ponty and Bourdieu, the book considers the historical development, influenced by social context, of competing philosophies of social science. Through detailed scrutiny of key texts, it examines the relations between phenomenology, Gestalt psychology, and empirical social science in the first half of the twentieth century, and then explores the way in which Bourdieu responded to this legacy by gradually advocating a form of reflexive social scientific investigation which would remain faithful to primary experience without disowning accumulated intellectualism. It asks whether the Bourdieu 'paradigm' retains value beyond the specifically French conditions of its production. It offers an analysis of the development of Bourdieu's thought and practice which constitutes



an invitation to readers generally to reassess the value of the western tradition of the social function of the detached intellectual for mass democratic

Sommario/riassunto

These proceedings are a collection of 16 selected scientific papers and reviews by distinguished international experts that were presented at the 4th Pacific Rim Underwater Acoustics Conference (PRUAC), held in Hangzhou, China in October 2013. The topics discussed at the conference include internal wave observation and prediction; environmental uncertainty and coupling to sound propagation; environmental noise and ocean dynamics; dynamic modeling in acoustic fields; acoustic tomography and ocean parameter estimation; time reversal and matched field processing; underwater acoustic localization and communication as well as measurement instrumentations and platforms. These proceedings provide insights into the latest developments in underwater acoustics, promoting the exchange of ideas for the benefit of future research.
