Anche se non ha forse ricevuto il riconoscimento che gli spettava, La forma e l’intelligibile è un classico delle scienze umane del secondo Novecento. Come ogni classico di questa specie, il libro sconta innanzitutto l’impossibilità di definire la mente dell’autore, al quale si potrebbe riferire la caustica battuta che aveva egli stesso coniato per Aby Warburg, creatore di «una disciplina che, all’opposto, di tante altre, esiste ma non ha nome». Se, come quella di Warburg, la «sci...

HANDICAPPING SYSTEMSKLEIN'S HANDICAPPING SYSTEM is designed for both THOROUGHBRED AND STANDARDBRED racing. In the last four years we have won the SuperSix nine times for a total of $56,000.00. In 1986, we won the SuperSix six times for a total of $41,000.00. We have won many more thousands of dollars on exactors and triactors. We have all of our larger wins paid by cheque from the racetracks so we can verify what we are saying. What I feel to be most important is this: We have seen...

Die Überlebenden saßen 72 Tage lang in extremer Kälte und absoluter Isolation fest, ohne jede Hoffnung auf Rettung. Was sich auf dem Gletscher abspielte, war nicht nur eine Geschichte über das körperliche Überleben, sondern ein beispielloses Experiment über menschliche Soziologie, Gruppendynamik und den rationalen Bruch der tiefsten moralisc...

Uncritical adherence to the concept of sovereign equality is a major stumbling block to the reorganization of the world community. This study is the first place to trace the origins of the wording of the concept as it appears in the UN charter, as well as its historical antecedents and philosophical foundations. Two contradictory ways of viewing sovereign states and maintaining order among them are discussed. According to one, states are abstract entities with a fictitious personality; acc...

Dear Reader,When we asked the beloved award-winning comedian and actor Robert Klein to write a book, you can imagine our utter surprise when he told us that he wanted to write about sixth-century Chinese pottery. Thankfully, he hit a creative brick wall (since he doesn't really know anything about pottery from China or anywhere else).
