Political Theology: Four Chapters on the Concept of Sovereignty
by Carl Schmitt (Author), George Schwab (Translator), Tracy B. Strong (Foreword)
Written in the intense political and intellectual tumult of the early years of the Weimar Republic, Political Theology develops the distinctive theory of sovereignty that made Carl Schmitt one of the most significant and controversial political theorists of the twentieth century
Focusing on the relationships among political leadership, the norms of the legal order, and the state of political emergency, Schmitt argues in Political Theology that legal order ultimately rests upon the decisions of the sovereign. According to Schmitt, only the sovereign can meet the needs of an "exceptional" time and transcend legal order so that order can then be reestablished. Convinced that the state is governed by the ever-present possibility of conflict, Schmitt theorizes that the state exists only to maintain its integrity in order to ensure order and stability. Suggesting that all concepts of modern political thought are secularized theological concepts, Schmitt concludes Political Theology with a critique of liberalism and its attempt to depoliticize political thought by avoiding fundamental political decisions

Mathematics for the Nonmathematician by Morris Kline (ریاضیات برای غیر ریاضیدانان)
مسائل عملی، علمی، فلسفی و هنری باعث شده است که مردان در ریاضیات تحقیق کنند. اما یک انگیزه دیگر وجود دارد که به اندازه هر یک از اینها قوی است - جستجو برای زیبایی. ریاضیات یک هنر است و به این ترتیب لذت هایی را که همه هنرها در اختیار دارند، می دهد." در این متن علمی و سرگرم کننده در سطح کالج، موریس کلاین، پروفسور بازنشسته ریاضیات در دانشگاه نیویورک، به دانشجوی هنرهای لیبرال برخورد دقیقی را ارائه می دهد. ریاضیات در زمینه فرهنگی و تاریخی. این کتاب همچنین می تواند به عنوان یک وسیله خودآموز برای دانش آموزان دبیرستانی پیشرفته و افراد غیر روحانی عمل کند. پروفسور کلاین با یک مرور کلی شروع می کند و پیشرفت ریاضیات را تا یونان باستان دنبال می کند و تکامل آن را در قرون وسطی و رنسانس تا امروز دنبال می کند. فصلهای بعدی بر حوزههای موضوعی خاصی مانند «منطق و ریاضیات»، «عدد: مفهوم بنیادی»، «معادلات پارامتریک و حرکت منحنیخطی»، «حساب دیفرانسیل» و «نظریه احتمال» تمرکز دارند. هر یک از این بخش ها توضیح گام به گام مفاهیم را ارائه می دهد و سپس درک دانش آموز را با تمرین ها و مسائل مورد آزمایش قرار می دهد. در عین حال، این مفاهیم با علوم ناب و کاربردی، مهندسی، فلسفه، علوم اجتماعی یا حتی هنرها پیوند دارند. در یک بخش، پروفسور کلاین هندسه غیراقلیدسی را مورد بحث قرار می دهد و آن را با تکامل به عنوان یکی از "دو مفهومی که عمیق ترین تحولات فکری ما را از قرن نوزدهم متحول کرده اند" رتبه بندی می کند. برخورد شفاف او با این موضوع دشوار در دهه ۱۸۰۰ با کار پیشگام گاوس، لوباچفسکی، بولیای و ریمان آغاز شد و به سمت نظریه نسبیت پیش رفت و جنبه های ریاضی، علمی و فلسفی این پیشرفت مهم را توضیح داد. ریاضیات برای غیر ریاضیدانان نمونه ای از توانایی نادر موریس کلاین در ساده کردن موضوعات پیچیده برای افراد غیرمتخصص است.
Arbatel: Concerning the Magic of the Ancients by Joseph Peterson (Translator)
از بسیاری جهات، آرباتل در میان متون مربوط به جادو منحصر به فرد است. برخلاف اکثریت قریب به اتفاق نوشته ها، واضح، مختصر و با ظرافت نوشته شده است. دستورالعمل های عملی ساده و مستقل هستند. هنگامی که برای اولین بار در سال ۱۵۷۵ ظاهر شد، توجه مردم را با طیف وسیعی از برنامه ها، از جمله برخی از بهترین ذهن های آن زمان، به خود جلب کرد. تأثیر آن بر فلسفه باطنی غرب که غالباً نقلقول و تجدید چاپ میشود، ستایش و محکوم میشود. جادوی آرباتل سرشار از شگفتی و عاری از عناصر شوم است که معمولاً با متون مربوط به این موضوع مرتبط است. اما این چیزی بیش از جادو است. پر از خرد گنومیک، ما را ترغیب می کند که به همسایگان خود کمک کنیم، مثبت و سپاسگزار باشیم و از زمان عاقلانه استفاده کنیم. مهمتر از همه، به ما می آموزد که به دنبال چیزهای شگفت انگیز و معجزه آسا باشیم. در واقع، برای نویسنده این عملاً مجوس را تعریف می کند.
The Science of Leonardo: Inside the Mind of the Great Genius of the Renaissance
by
Leonardo da Vinci's scientific explorations were virtually unknown during his lifetime, despite their extraordinarily wide range. He studied the flight patterns of birds to create some of the first human flying machines; designed military weapons and defenses; studied optics, hydraulics, and the workings of the human circulatory system; and created designs for rebuilding Milan, employing principles still used by city planners today. Perhaps most importantly, Leonardo pioneered an empirical, systematic approach to the observation of nature-what is known today as the scientific method.Drawing on over 6,000 pages of Leonardo's surviving notebooks, acclaimed scientist and bestselling author Fritjof Capra reveals Leonardo's artistic approach to scientific knowledge and his organic and ecological worldview. In this fascinating portrait of a thinker centuries ahead of his time, Leonardo singularly emerges as the unacknowledged “father of modern science.”
The Tao of Physics: An Exploration of the Parallels Between Modern Physics and Eastern Mysticism
by
Here is the book that brought the mystical implications of subatomic physics to popular consciousness for the very first time—way back in 1975. This special edition celebrates the thirty-fifth anniversary of this early Shambhala best seller that has gone on to become a classic. It includes a new preface by the author, in which he reflects on the further discoveries and developments that have occurred in the years since the book’s original publication. “Physicists do not need mysticism,” Dr. Capra says, “and mystics do not need physics, but humanity needs both.” It’s a message of timeless importance.
It: A Novel
by
Now a major motion picture Stephen King’s terrifying, classic #1 New York Times bestseller, “a landmark in American literature” (Chicago Sun-Times)—about seven adults who return to their hometown to confront a nightmare they had first stumbled on as teenagers…an evil without a name: It.
Welcome to Derry, Maine. It’s a small city, a place as hauntingly familiar as your own hometown. Only in Derry the haunting is real.
They were seven teenagers when they first stumbled upon the horror. Now they are grown-up men and women who have gone out into the big world to gain success and happiness. But the promise they made twenty-eight years ago calls them reunite in the same place where, as teenagers, they battled an evil creature that preyed on the city’s children. Now, children are being murdered again and their repressed memories of that terrifying summer return as they prepare to once again battle the monster lurking in Derry’s sewers.
Readers of Stephen King know that Derry, Maine, is a place with a deep, dark hold on the author. It reappears in many of his books, including Bag of Bones, Hearts in Atlantis, and ۱۱/۲۲/۶۳. But it all starts with It.
“Stephen King’s most mature work” (St. Petersburg Times), “Itwill overwhelm you… to be read in a well-lit room only” (Los Angeles Times).

Babylon: Mesopotamia and the Birth of Civilization
by
Civilization was born eight thousand years ago, between the floodplains of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, when migrants from the surrounding mountains and deserts began to create increasingly sophisticated urban societies. In the cities that they built, half of human history took place.
In Babylon, Paul Kriwaczek tells the story of Mesopotamia from the earliest settlements seven thousand years ago to the eclipse of Babylon in the sixth century BCE. Bringing the people of this land to life in vibrant detail, the author chronicles the rise and fall of power during this period and explores the political and social systems, as well as the technical and cultural innovations, which made this land extraordinary. At the heart of this book is the story of Babylon, which rose to prominence under the Amorite king Hammurabi from about 1800 BCE. Even as Babylon's fortunes waxed and waned, it never lost its allure as the ancient world's greatest city.
Engaging and compelling, Babylon reveals the splendor of the ancient world that laid the foundation for civilization itself.
