Sommario/riassunto |
|
Nouveau Prométhée, l’homme contemporain ressent de la honte face à la perfection des instruments nés de sa propre main. Symptôme du nihilisme, ce sentiment révèle un décalage plus profond entre l’homme et son monde, système des instruments. Afin d’éviter une désastreuse conséquence, de nouveaux outils esthétiques et moraux doivent être inventés. Cet ouvrage se propose d’offrir une introduction aux concepts et arguments forgés par Günther Anders dans le cadre de sa critique originale de la technique. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Une expérience d’une ampleur sans précédent est en train de se réaliser sous nos yeux ; elle est involontaire et non maîtrisée mais elle concerne la planète toute entière : la composition de l’atmosphère a subi, subit encore et subira des modifications qui devraient entraîner des changements importants du climat. Si le thème est d’actualité, les déclarations des uns et des autres ne permettent pas toujours d’y voir clair. Le but de ce livre est de fournir les éléments scientifiques nécessaires à une compréhension personnelle du sujet. Qu’est ce que l’effet de serre ? Quels sont les grands principes qui régissent le climat de la planète ? Comment la machine climatique fonction ne-telle et comment l’activité humaine la perturbe-telle ? La Terre se réchauffe-t-elle vraiment ? Comment situer l’évolution récente du climat par rapport au passé ? Le réchauffement est-il dû à l’activité humaine ? Pourquoi certains scientifiques ont-ils des avis divergents ? À quoi s’attendre au cours de ce siècle ? Qu’est-ce que la lutte contre l’effet de serre ? Quelles seront les conséquences les plus probables du réchauffement prévisible ? Ce livre tente de répondre à ces questions en distinguant le certain, le probable et le moins sûr, sans éluder les difficultés mais en s’efforçant de rester très accessible. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This report provides information about new diagnostic approaches new therapeutic regimens and better understanding of the distribution of the disease with high-quality mapping. The roles of human and animal reservoirs and the tsetse fly vectors that transmit the parasites are emphasized. The new information has formed the basis for an integrated strategy with which it is hoped that elimination of HAT will be achieved. The report also contains recommendations on the approaches that will lead to elimination of the disease.Human African Tryponosomiasis (HAT) is a disease that afflicts populations |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
In this masterful work of historical scholarship, Zeev Sternhell, an internationally renowned Israeli political scientist and historian, presents a controversial new view of the fall of democracy and the rise of radical nationalism in the twentieth century. Sternhell locates their origins in the eighteenth century with the advent of the Anti-Enlightenment, far earlier than most historians. The thinkers belonging to the Anti-Enlightenment (a movement originally identified by Friederich Nietzsche) represent a perspective that is antirational and |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
that rejects the principles of natural law and the rights of man. Sternhell asserts that the Anti-Enlightenment was a development separate from the Enlightenment and sees the two traditions as evolving parallel to one another over time. He contends that J. G. Herder and Edmund Burke are among the real founders of the Anti-Enlightenment and shows how that school undermined the very foundations of modern liberalism, finally contributing to the development of fascism that culminated in the European catastrophes of the twentieth century. |
