It's... The Little Guide to Monty Python: ... And Now For Something Completely Different (The\little Book Of... Ser.)
by Orange Hippo!Made from the paper of the mightiest tree in a forest and cut to size with a herring, this Little Guide to Monty Python may be only-ever-so slightly bigger than one of Mr Creosote's wafer-sized mints, but it's packed with enough preposterous comedy power to keep Pythonites stuffed with laughter until breakfast.Monty Python, of course, do not require an introduction. Python are the UK's original legends of comedy; as influential as they are innovative, as incomparable as they are intelligent. For sixty years, their unique brand of ensemble silliness has travelled the world as much as Michael Palin's toothbrush, their legacy growing with each generation.This tiny time can barely contain the 185 or so classic quotes, one liners, character flaws and jokes that made the troupe so famous, all revealed in the profoundly preposterous wit, wisdom and words of the Pythons themselves.All together now... "Always look on the bright side of life..."'I always wanted to be an explorer, but it seemed I was doomed to be nothing more than a very silly person.' Michael Palin

Jaakko Hintikka (Profiles #8)
by Radu J. BogdanThe aim of this series is to inform both professional philosophers and a larger readership (of social and natural scientists, methodologists, mathematicians, students, teachers, publishers, etc. ) about what is going on, who's who, and who does what in contemporary philosophy and logic. PROFILES is designed to present the research activity and the results of already outstanding personalities and schools and of newly emerging ones in the various fields of philosophy and logic. There are many Festschrift volumes dedicated to various philosophers. There is the celebrated Library of Living Philosophers edited by P. A. Schilpp whose format influenced the present enterprise. Still they can only cover very little of the contemporary philosophical scene. Faced with a tremendous expansion of philosophical information and with an almost frightening division of labor and increasing specialization we need systematic and regular ways of keeping track of what happens in the profession. PROFILES is intended to perform such a function. Each volume is devoted to one or several philosophers whose views and results are presented and discussed. The profiled philosopher(s) will summarize and review his (their) own work in the main fields of significant contribution. This work will be discussed and evaluated by invited contributors. Relevant his to rial and/or biographical data, an up-to-date bibliography with short abstracts of the most important works and, whenever possible, references to significant reviews and discussion will also be included.

The Jacobite Rebellion 1745–46 (Guide to...)
by Gregory Fremont-BarnesThe Jacobite Rebellion was the final attempt of the House of Stuart to re-establish itself on the British throne and it saw the death throes of the independent martial prowess of the Highland clans. No event in British history has been more heavily romanticized, but Gregory Fremont-Barnes succeeds in stripping away the myths to reveal the key events of this crucial period. From questions of dynastic succession to religious dominance, the events leading to the Rebellion are carefully explained and analyzed, drawing upon a host of primary research. From the landing of Bonnie Prince Charlie to the battle of Culloden, this book offers a complete overview of the Rebellion, complete with detailed maps and beautiful period illustrations.
Jacques Derrida (Routledge Revivals): An Annotated Primary and Secondary Bibliography
by William Schultz Lewis L. B. FriedFirst published in 1992, this book represents the first major attempt to compile a bibliography of Derrida’s work and scholarship about his work. It attempts to be comprehensive rather than selective, listing primary and secondary works from the year of Derrida’s Master’s thesis in 1954 up until 1991, and is extensively annotated. It arranges under article type a huge number of works from scholars across numerous fields — reflecting the interdisciplinary and controversial nature of Deconstruction. The substantial introduction and annotations also make this bibliography, in part, a critical guide and as such will make a highly useful reference tool for those studying his philosophy.

Jacques Ellul and the Technological Society in the 21st Century (Philosophy of Engineering and Technology #13)
by Helena M. Jerónimo, José Luís Garcia and Carl MitchamThis volume rethinks the work of Jacques Ellul (1912-1994) on the centenary of his birth, by presenting an overview of the current debates based on Ellul's insights. As one of the most significant twentieth-century thinkers about technology, Ellul was among the first thinkers to realize the importance of topics such as globalization, terrorism, communication technologies and ecology, and study them from a technological perspective. The book is divided into three sections. The first discusses Ellul’s diagnosis of modern society, and addresses the reception of his work on the technological society, the notion of efficiency, the process of symbolization/de-symbolization, and ecology. The second analyzes communicational and cultural problems, as well as threats and trends in early twenty-first century societies. Many of the issues Ellul saw as crucial – such as energy, propaganda, applied life sciences and communication – continue to be so. In fact they have grown exponentially, on a global scale, producing new forms of risk. Essays in the final section examine the duality of reason and revelation. They pursue an understanding of Ellul in terms of the depth of experience and the traditions of human knowledge, which is to say, on the one hand, the experience of the human being as contained in the rationalist, sociological and philosophical traditions. On the other hand there are the transcendent roots of human existence, as well as “revealed knowledge,” in the mystical and religious traditions. The meeting of these two traditions enables us to look at Ellul’s work as a whole, but above all it opens up a space for examining religious life in the technological society.
