    On media and communication (Paperback)
    On media and communication (Paperback)
    Communication and media are essential and ubiquitous aspects of our daily lives and society. Yet, we do not always seem to know what communication is, how it operates, which impact it holds and even how to aptly describe it. Acknowledging this 'black box', On Media and Communication provides the reader with a broad and profound overview of the scholarly field of communication sciences. It offers a basic introduction to the paradigms, theories and research strands while also approaching the young discipline from a historical perspective. Issues of power, social integration and identity in relation to media are central points of discussion in this book volume and are illustrated by a rich number of topical cases from the international scene of media and communication. Students from the fields of social sciences and humanities as well as everyone with an interest in the role and practice of media in our contemporary world will find this handbook to be a useful and accessible introduction

    Cultures of Stone (Paperback)
    Cultures of Stone (Paperback)
    This volume establishes a rich cross-disciplinary dialogue about the significance of stone in society across time and space. The material properties of stone have ensured its continuing importance; however, it is its materiality which has mediated the relations between the individual, society and stone. Bound up with the physical properties of stone are ideas on identity, value, and understanding. Stone can act as a medium through which these concepts are expressed and is tied to ideas such as monumentality and remembrance; its enduring character creating a link through generations to both people and place. This volume brings together a collection of seventeen papers which draw on a range of diverse disciplines and approaches; including archaeology, anthropology, classics, design and engineering, fine arts, geography, history, linguistics, philosophy, psychology and sciences. Contents: List of Figures Contributors Acknowledgements Introduction: Constructing Identities through Stone

    Fotoboek Greece | Amber Books
    Regarded as the cradle of Western civilization, Greece is the birthplace of democracy, Western philosophy, Western literature, political science, major mathematical principles and Western drama, as well as the Olympic Games. But it is also a country of mountains – 80 per cent of the country is mountainous – as well as islands – of more than 1,000 islands, 227 are inhabited. And it has the longest coastline of any Mediterranean country.   From antiquity to modernity, from the tallest mountains to the tiniest islands, from the Romans to the Venetians to the Ottomans, Greece is a beautiful photographic exploration of this fascinating country. Arranged by region, the book celebrates such classical highlights as Athens’s Acropolis, the ruins at Mycenae in the Peloponnese, the Byzantine churches of Thessaloniki and the ancient Temple at Delphi. It also explores the beauty of the islands of the Aegean and the Ionian Sea, the Zagori mountains in the northwest of the country and the hydrotherm…

    What layer are we on? (Paperback)
    What layer are we on? (Paperback)
    Spiritual caregivers provide support with regard to meaning and worldviews. One of their professional competences is hermeneutical: the ability to connect current life experiences with sources of meaning and traditions. We refer to the conversations on meaning and tradition as hermeneutic communication. Our question is how hermeneutic communication takes place in a society with a plurality of worldviews and a multitude of sources and traditions. How does that context affect the worldview identity of the spiritual caregivers? And what shape does hermeneutic communication take on in terms of process and content? The study begins with an exploratory inquiry among lecturers at theological institutions and then turns to conceptual inquiries in the fields of philosophy, psychology, and theology. On that basis a multiple embedded case study is undertaken into the practice of seven Protestant Christian chaplains working in general hospitals. Use is made of recorded conversations between

    Reisgids Somaliland | Bradt Travel Guides
    Reisgids Somaliland | Bradt Travel Guides
    Voor vele landen net zo goed, zo niet beter dan de Planet. Beduidend soberder uitgevoerd, maar ook met veel informatie voor backpackers en met veel kaartmateriaal. Een aanrader!   There is a reason no other publisher produces a guide to Somaliland: it is not an easy book to produce. The research is extremely challenging, the production is expensive and, because Somaliland is such a niche travel destination, the sales potential is very limited. Unfortunately, the first edition of this book did not recoup its costs. We were left with a difficult decision: increase the retail price to make a second edition possible or admit defeat and allow the guide to go out of print. We don’t like to admit defeat.   This second edition is significantly more expensive than the first edition, but we sincerely hope you’ll understand why that is the case, and feel that the revised price still represents excellent value for such vital and unique information. We are committed to providing high quality tr…

    Understanding the basic dynamics of organizing (Paperback)
    Understanding the basic dynamics of organizing (Paperback)
    Organization theory is a theoretical field of study distinct from more practical fields such as general management, organizational behavior and human resource management. It is a basic science studying the ways human actors organize themselves into groups with various degrees of complexity. Organization theory is not the study of organizations. Groups of actors referred to as 'organizations' in everyday parlance only constitute one part of the groups introduced in this text. Organization theory is, therefore, a necessary tool not only for students of business administration, but also for those of a wide range of other academic fields, including sociology, cultural anthropology, public administration, education and philosophy. Peter Peverelli is affiliated with the Faculty of Economics & Business Administration at VU University Amsterdam. He studied Chinese Language & Culture at Leiden University. He received a PhD in Arts at Leiden University and a PhD in Business Administration at

    DC Comics Legacy Replica Statue 1/4 Wonder Woman 56 cm
    Who is Wonder Woman?Wonder Woman is one of the greatest icons of comic book art and pop culture. Created by William Moulton Marston and Harry G. Peter in 1941, she is Princess Diana, a demigoddess Amazon from Themyscira, the Paradise Island, and the daughter of Zeus and Hippolyta, the queen of the Amazons. Over the years, her origins have undergone several changes-Diana has been a nurse, military intelligence officer, U.S. government agent, ambassador, and more, in addition to being an Amazon warrior. Although her backstory and appearance have evolved, her essence as the greatest hero has remained unchanged, coming to the world of men to promote and defend peace and justice. With superhuman powers, abilities, and her mystical Lasso of Truth, she forms the DC universe's Trinity alongside Superman and Batman, balancing the often-opposing ideologies of the two heroes.

    Productomschrijving

    What is truth? is a clear and comprehensive introduction to the Philosophy of Science, that will equally appeal to students of the Humanities, the Social Sciences and the Natural Sciences. With a solid footing in the history of classical philosophy, the book offers an in-depth discussion of Karl Popper, Thomas Kuhn, Hans-Georg Gadamer, Jacques Derrida and Bruno Latour, among others. The book discusses recent developments in the Philosophy of Science, such as post-Kuhnian philosophy and the current interest in “objectivity”. According to Chunglin Kwa, there is not one rationality of science but several, each with its own logic and legitimate claim to truth. Six such styles of scientific reasoning can be established, pervading the sciences (including the humanities) in different combinations. The latter focus provides the book with an outstanding interdisciplinary outlook. Chunglin Kwa teaches at the University of Amsterdam. What is truth? is a translation of Wat is waarheid?, published
