The assessment points to the economic vulnerability of the lower middle class, due to the fragmentation of the labor market (formalityinformality, low-high productivity) and the segmentation of …
Humans are a walking species. We tread on the surface of the Earth. Without this primary mobility we would not be here and even when other means of getting around have become accessible, we don’t cease to walk. Our walking leaves traces. This is inevitable. No culture or civilisation or society can escape from this primordial mark-making. Some of these traces cluster and congregate into patte…
Open Access to the results of scientific research brings promising and democratic solutions to enlighten citizens. It may contribute to upgrade the quality of scientific information and to raise the level of ac-ceptance of common scientific representations amongst the population. However, this is far from being systematic: in the same time when huge scientific progress enabled the making of a v…
Czerny’s closeness to Beethoven, and his extraordinary musical abilities, have tendedto encourage confidence in him as a reliable source of information about Beethoven’sexpectations for the performance of his music. But despite his obvious reverence forBeethoven’s works, closer scrutiny suggests that he adopted a progressive rather thancuratorial position towards them: perhaps his concern…
With these cautions in mind—against positing a transcendent idea of academic freedom—I have written the present book. It discloses debates in which mutually exclusive ideas about academic freedom are in play. These debates have not achieved closure; the history of academic freedom is an accumulation of uncertainties. This approach difers from that of most commentators on acade…
This book has three main aims which are surprising only in terms of how little has been done previously to fulfil them. In 2011 Miller published a book called Tales From Facebook.1 As the title suggests, that book consisted mainly of stories about how people, as it happens people in Trinidad, used Facebook, and the consequences of Facebook for their lives.In retrospect there wer…
For a long time, teaching and learning were understood as activities tied to a particu-lar sense of place.

The incisive developments during the COVID-19 pandemic …

The court of Star Chamber remains notorious even now: commentators sometimes invoke its name to suggest that a judicial body or legal action is not quite lawful, something secretive and illegitimate. The court provoked concern in its own time, too, though its vilification deepened after its death. With roots in the mid fourteenth century, St…

The essays collected here investigate ho…
In many esoteric traditions, there exists an iconic or linguistic corollary between the concepts of ‘poisoner’ and ‘sorcerer’, suggesting a sinistral magical kinship. Indeed, the use of plant, animal and mineral toxins is a strand of magic originating in remotest antiquity and reaching the present day. Beyond its mundane function as an agent of corporeal harm, poisons have also served a…

I forget who first jokingly defined sculpture as something you bump into when you step back to look at a painting. I n any case, like most witticisms, this one contains a germ o f truth: both the general public and scholars pay more attention to painting than to sculpture. There are undoubtedly many reasons for this. We are a society geared to experiencing things on a flat plane rather than in …
In Medicine, the samples use to come from patients from whom a portion of tissue is extracted, which is called a biopsy.

Many of the studies are carried out using extensions …

Cotton Vitellius A.xv. The text was copied by two dif…
This book is a development of Jean-Paul Sartre’s philosophy. And the goal is to make Sartre’s work relevant for issues in contemporary philosophy in a new way. The relevance of the French philosopher for the study of human beings lies in two essential dichotomies that pervade his thought. That is, the dichotomy of freedom/facticity and that of individual/gro…

One of the unsung successes in standardization in computer science has been the regular expression (often shortened to regex), a language for specifying text search regular expression strings.

At some point, the energy had dropped enough for the first stable atoms to exist. At that moment, photo…
