Self, Reason, and Freedom

Self, Reason, and Freedom

Andrea Christofidou

Routledge
2012
sidottu
Freedom and its internal relation to reason is fundamental to Descartes’ philosophy in general, and to his Meditations on First Philosophy in particular. Without freedom his entire enquiry would not get off the ground, and without understanding the rôle of freedom in his work, we could not understand what motivates key parts of his metaphysics. Yet, not only is freedom a relatively overlooked element, but its internal relation to reason has gone unnoticed by most studies of his philosophy.Self, Reason, and Freedom: A New Light on Descartes’ Metaphysics, by defending freedom’s internal relation to reason, sheds new light on Descartes’ metaphysics and restores the often dismissed Fourth Meditation to the core of his metaphysics as he conceived it. Implicit in that relation is a rejection of any authority external to reason. Andrea Christofidou shows how this lends strength and explanatory force to Descartes’ enquiry, and reveals his conception of the unity of the self and of its place in the world.Self, Reason, and Freedom: A New Light on Descartes’ Metaphysics is essential reading for students and scholars of Descartes and anyone studying seventeenth-century philosophy.

Men, Masculinities and Sexualities in Dance

Men, Masculinities and Sexualities in Dance

Andria Christofidou

Springer Nature Switzerland AG
2021
sidottu
This book examines men, masculinities and sexualities in Western theatrical dance, offering insights into the processes, actions and interactions that occur in dance institutions around gender-transgressive acts, and the factors that set limits to transgression. This text uses interview and observation data to analyze the conditions that encourage some boys and young men to become involved in this widely unconventional activity, and the ways through which they negotiate the gendered and sexual attachments of their professional identity. Most importantly, the book analyzes the opportunities male dancers find to develop a reflexive habitus, engage in gender transgressive acts and experiment with their sexuality. At the same time, it approaches gender and sexuality as embodied, and therefore as parts of identity that are not as easily amendable. This book will be of interest to scholars in Gender and Sexuality Studies as well as Dance and Performance Studies.

It's All Greek To Me

It's All Greek To Me

You can’t hurry love … unless it holds the key to a family crisis. Ismeena Eliades has hit a life stalemate. She’s bored of her job as an administrative assistant in the stuffy corporate legal world, fed up of her dried-up love life, and tired of drinking away her thirties. And then there’s her mum and her never-ending ploy to marry Isme off to a ‘Good Greek Boy’ (preferably with a healthy bank balance). It’s time for a life reboot. But just as Isme sets off on a much-needed summer holiday for some sun, sea and solace, she learns that her mum’s motivations for matchmaking go beyond Greek tradition – and when a family emergency brings responsibility to her door, a marriage proposal materialises that could solve all of their problems …

Physics, Chemistry and Technology of Solid State Gas Sensor Devices

Physics, Chemistry and Technology of Solid State Gas Sensor Devices

Andreas Mandelis; Constantinos Christofides

John Wiley Sons Inc
1993
sidottu
Research and development of solid state gas sensor devices began in the 1950s with several uncoordinated independent efforts. The number and pace of these investigations later accelerated in response to increasing pressure placed on the environment and public health by industrial activities. Since 1970, several thousand articles have been written on the subject, and laboratories around the globe have introduced novel methodologies and devices to address needs associated with particular technological developments. Despite the rapid development of this important new technology, very little has been done to review and coordinate data related to sensor science and technology itself. Physics, Chemistry and Technology of Solid State Gas Sensor Devices focuses on the underlying principles of solid state sensor operation and reveals the rich fabric of interdisciplinary science that governs modern sensing devices. Beginning with some historical and scientific background, the text proceeds to a study of the interactions of gases with surfaces. Subsequent chapters present detailed information on the fabrication, performance, and application of a variety of sensors. Types of sensor devices discussed include: Gas-sensitive solid state semiconductor sensorsPhotonic and photoacoustic gas sensorsFiber optic sensorsPiezoelectric quartz crystal microbalance sensorsSurface acoustic wave sensorsPyroelectric and thermal sensors For analytical chemists using solid state sensors in environment-related analysis, and for electrical engineers working with solid state sensors, this book will expand and unify their understanding of these devices, both in theory and practice.

Macroeconomic Policy

Macroeconomic Policy

Martin Weale; Andrew Blake; Nicos Christodoulakis; James Meade; David Vines

Routledge
2015
sidottu
This analysis of macroeconomic policy, originally published in 1989, argues that key government objectives, such as reduced inflation, decreased unemployment and an adequate level of national saving can be achieved only by employing both monetary and fiscal policies, in conjunction with supply-side policies expressly designed to improve the workings of the labour market. Part 1 is a comparative analysis showing the effects of monetary and fiscal policy on the economy. Real-wage rigidity in the labour market is shown to have important consequences for the working of both types of policy, because it conditions the economy’s response to tax changes. Part 2 presents an econometric model which combines consistent stock-flow accounts with a full range of expectational effects. Part 3 presents an innovative technique for solving rational expectations models with the need for arbitary terminal conditions.

Love?Love can be a lot of things, not all of them good. Sometimes worms get into a person's heart and breed destruction, and then love, as they experience it, becomes cruel and polluted. WHAT THEN DEFINES A LOVE STORY? Here are stories of love gone wrong, love when its HATE, love when it's LOATHING, MISOGYNY, NARCISSISM, and GREED. These are SEX stories, HORROR stories, violent little terrors of the heart where all ties are severed and the relationships you thought you believed in crumble. This is where love and wickedness coalesce. ANDREA, romance redefined in a bitter new light.

I met Andrea Altiery in 1981; the first thing she asked was, "Do you like the rock band Aerosmith?" I responded, "Yes." She smiled and slapped me on my left shoulder telling me, "Dream on my friend." Later that year Andrea was taken from us by the most notorious serial killer to ever hunt in the state of Alaska. Get ready to collectively ride an emotional ride through urban Alaska while looking through a steamy window for lost love; love that's never found and love that maybe never was. I can only imagine the helplessness; the complete feeling of being alone these women had; Andrea must have had, preyed upon all of their spirit's gathering together now. Victims of circumstance; none of these women deserved to be mistreated like Andrea; dehumanized, erased from our minds. One last chance to give Andrea a voice, each woman asking us can you hear me, do you see me now?
