THE WILL TO POWER -- BIBLIOGRAPHY -- NAME INDEX -- SUBJECT INDEXAlthough there is a huge literature on Nietzsche's philosophy, this is the first study in English that focuses on his ontology. Before proceeding to that ontology, Addis argues that, contrary to many commentators, Nietzsche defends both the possibility and the desirability of objectivity in the search for knowledge, including knowledge of the basic features of reality, that is, of ontology. In separate chapters, Addis then sets out, analyzes, and evaluates the five essential components of Nietzsche's ontology: constant change, substances and things, minds, causation, and will to power. In each case, Addis contributes an original understanding of the feature under discussion, with more detail than exists in other treatments, and defended with "es from relevant texts of Nietzsche.

The National Institute on Aging (NIA), which is concerned with this issue as it affects the older population in the United States, asked the National Research Council to review existing and ongoing research and to delineate the nature and dimensions of potential scientific inquiry in this area. The Committee on Population thus established the Steering Committee on the Challenges of Assessing the Impact of Severe Economic Recession the Elderly to convene a meeting of experts to discuss these issues. The primary purpose of the workshop was to help NIA gain insight into the kinds of questions that it should be asking, the research that it should be supporting, and the data that it should be collecting. Attendees included invited experts in the fields of economics, sociology, and epidemiology; staff from NIA and the Social Security Administration (SSA); and staff from the National Academies. This report highlights the major issues that were raised in the workshop presentations and discussion.Older peopleUnited StatesEconomic conditionsCongressesRecessionsUnited States21st centuryCongressesGlobal Financial Crisis, 2008-2009CongressesUnited StatesEconomic conditionsCongressesOlder peopleEconomic conditionsRecessionsGlobal Financial Crisis, 2008-2009305.26Majmundar Malay Kiran1809750National Research Council (U.S.).Steering Committee on the Challenges of Assessing the Impact of Severe Economic Recession the Elderly.National Academies Press (U.S.)MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910957595603321Assessing the impact of severe economic recession on the elderly4446115UNINA
