Condition: Sehr gut. 178 S. Tadelloses Exemplar. - Contents: Education and Culture Humanities and the Paradigm of Turns Comparative Approach in the Fields of Education Education and New Orientations: Methods and Competences Acquisition CLIL and E-learning Innovations and Converging Technologies in Education. - In a knowledge-bas…ed society education and technologies appear as the decisive driving-forces of the development, and one of the most important challenges is the adaptation process of education adequately to the present societal and cultural changes. The following considerations extrapolate a multidisciplinary approach to the present conditions and circumstances of education, and are especially focusing on concerns such as the significance of technological development and the moral agency of technologies in the field of education, the questions concerning methods of languages and competences acquisition basing on the CLIL and e-learning methods, and finally the characteristic of engineers education orientated on the interdisciplinary concept of the converging technologies.

Hardback. Condition: New. This book is presented by two authors who worked in close cooperation. The first part is written by Ewa Binczyk and discusses various postulates that have been formulated in response to the problem of the unwanted side-effects of the practical success of technoscience which derive from two theoretical p…erspectives: the study of risk and science and technology studies (STS), inspired by actor-network theory (ANT). In the second part of the book Tomasz Stepien analyses and characterizes the nano-domain as an example of the development of techno-sciences. Generally, in the case of nanotechnology this book calibrates reciprocally to each other the indeed familiar but also slightly different theoretical approaches established in the philosophy of science and technology.

Hardback. Condition: New. This book explores the idea of order and meaning of events in human life as it emerged in Ancient Greek thought and developed within early Christian theology. In Greek philosophy, especially among the Stoics, the concept of cosmic order culminated in the notion of Providence, understood as the universal… law governing the cosmos. While absent from the Bible, the idea of Providence was adopted by Christian authors, who transformed it into the expression of God's personal care for both the individual and the Church. In this perspective, Providence is revealed above all in the economy of salvation, reaching its climax in the Incarnation, the Cross, and the Resurrection of Christ. Thus, the impersonal notion of cosmic order was reshaped into a vision of divine love and care directed toward human salvation.
