Overview: Presents new insights on the (alleged) implications of new scientific theories on the rationality of religious belief.Connects perspectives from epistemology, philosophy of science and philosophy of r.It is widely thought that the cognitive science of religion (CSR) may have a bearing on the epistemic status of religious beliefs and on other topics in philosophy of religion. Epistemologists have used theories from CSR to argue both for and against the rationality of religious beliefs, or they have claimed that CSR is neutral .vis-à-vis. the epistemic status of religious belief.

Overview: Der Stand der Forschung in der NetzwerkanalyseIn der Netzwerkanalyse und der Netzwerktheorie stehen Muster von Relationen im Mittelpunkt der Forschung. Die Netzwerkforschung knüpft zwar an Klassiker der Soziologie und an verschiedene theoretische Richtungen und bekannte Methoden an, durch das neue Paradigma der Netzwerkforschung ist aber in den letzten Jahren eine Vielfalt an theoretischen und empirischen Forschungsarbeiten angestoßen worden, die dieses Feld zum vielleicht dynamischsten Bereich in der Sozialforschung aufsteigen ließ. Dies liegt an der Tatsache, dass mit Hilfe der Net

Overview: die Komoren zu, die seit 1993 Mitglied sind. Diese Staaten werden im Afrika-Jahrbuch behan­ delt. Nicht konsequent ist die Gruppierung aller Golfstaaten in einem einzigen Länderbeitrag. Diese Staaten sind zwar alle Mitglieder im Golf-Kooperationsrat. Dies trifft aber auch auf Saudi-Arabien zu, dem die Herausgeber jedoch in jedem Fall eine eigenständige Rubrik zuweisen wollten. Die Entwicklungen in den nach dem Zerfall der Sowjetunion in Zentralasien Ende 1991 entstandenen Republiken mit überwiegend islamischer Bevölkerung wurden im Nahost-Jahrbuch 1992 erstmals in den Themenbeiträgen

Overview: Taking care of oneself is increasingly interpreted as taking care of one’s brain. Apart from pills, books, food, and games for a better brain, people can also use neurotechnologies for self-improvement. This book explores how the use of brain devices to understand or improve the self changes people’s subjectivity..This book describes how the effects of several brain devices were and are demonstrated; how brains and selves interact in the work of early brainwave scientists and contemporary practitioners; how users of neurofeedback (brainwave training) constitute a new mode of self tha

Overview: This book looks at neo-classicism as a context for understanding early-modern English historical writing, and traces the implications of neo-classical history for English political culture at large. By paying close attention to historical genres and audiences, it reassesses both the famous and lesser-known historians of this era, dramatizing them as engaged in a struggle to preserve ancient models of historical composition in the face of a rapidly modernizing society characterized by party politics, print, Christianity, and antiquarian erudition.978-0-230-37615-1Series ISSN 2946-2053

Overview: Neutrino ‘80 held at the Ettore Majorana Center for Scientific Culture in Erice, was the tenth of a series of International Confer­ ences on Neutrino Physics and Astrophysics. It also marked the fiftieth anniversary of the first mention, by Wolfgang Pauli, of a neutral particle emitted in beta decay. The conference occurred at a very propitious time in neutrino physics: the possibility of a non-zero neutrino mass and of neutrino oscillations has obvious implications of great importance in neutrino astrophysics and cosmology, as well as in the grand unified theories. In order to encou

Overview: Examines what it means to ‘be a man’ in prisons paying particular attention to the supposed ‘ultramasculine’, or ‘hypermasculine’ nature of the prison environment.Addresses specific issues such as fatThis edited collection utilises recent advances in theories on masculinities to explore and analyse the ways in which prisons shape performances of gender, both within prison settings and following release from prison. The authors assess here how the highly gendered world of the prison (where the population is overwhelmingly male in most countries) impacts upon the performance of masculi
