Cognitive Justice in a Global World Prudent Knowledges for a Decent Life


Free Download Boaventura de Sousa Santos Professor of Sociology University of Coimbra, "Cognitive Justice in a Global World: Prudent Knowledges for a Decent Life"
English | 2007 | pages: 462 | ISBN: 0739121952 | EPUB | 1,9 mb
Cognitive Justice in a Global World: Prudent Knowledges for a Decent Life is an edited collection that springs from the now dormant debates known as ‘The Science Wars,’ which questioned the nature of scientific theories. Learning from the debates about the plurality of truths and opinions, editor Boaventura de Sousa Santos has realized an opportunity for strengthening the relations between the natural and social sciences with more epistemological affinities and for opening up new transnational dialogues between scientists and other producers of knowledge. This book analyses in detail some of the topics that amount to a set of problematic relations between science and ethics; between objectivity and neutrality; between the sociological and theoretical condition of production and the limits of scientific rigor; between public faith in science and the economic powers that determine scientific priorities; and between science and other kinds of knowledge existing in society. Maintaining that global social injustice is by and large epistemological injustice and that there can be no global social justice without global cognitive justice, Cognitive Justice in a Global World is an important collection for higher-level students and researchers in the social sciences, philosophy of science, and intellectual history.

Cognitive Behaviour Therapy A Guide for the Practising Clinician, Volume 1


Free Download Cognitive Behaviour Therapy: A Guide for the Practising Clinician, Volume 1 By Gregoris Simos, Aaron T. Beck
2002 | 344 Pages | ISBN: 1583911049 | PDF | 3 MB
Although Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) has a well elaborated theoretical background and documented standard therapeutic process, new specific theoretical formulations and genuine techniques seem to continually appear. These new treatment developments in CBT constitute the heart of this book.Leading researchers and clinicians, who are also well established experts in the application of CBT present the extent of their experience, as well as appropriate and state-of-the-art treatment techniques for a variety of specific disorders:* Management of Major Depression, suicidal behaviour and Bipolar Disorder.* Treatment of Anxiety Disorders such as Panic Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, and Generalized Anxiety Disorder.* Application of CBT to Eating Disorder and Personality Disorders, especially Borderline Personality Disorder.* Implementation of CBT with specific populations such as couples and families, children and adolescents.The book focuses on clinical practice and treatment techniques, but avoids a step-by-step approach.Instead it encourages flexibility and integrativity in order to help the practicing clinician become more competent and efficient in applying CBT. Well-known contributors reveal a variety of treatment styles, and case examples and treatment transcripts are used to show how theoretical innovations integrate with the practice of CBT.

A Cognitive Approach to Adverbial Subordination in European Portuguese The Infinitive, the Clitic Pronoun Se and Finite


Free Download Rainer Vesterinen, "A Cognitive Approach to Adverbial Subordination in European Portuguese: The Infinitive, the Clitic Pronoun Se and Finite"
English | ISBN: 1443829285 | 2011 | 199 pages | PDF | 1184 KB
The study of adverbial clauses in Portuguese is related to the fact that the Portuguese speaker may chose between three different structures, i.e. the adverbial clause may contain the plain infinitive, the inflected infinitive or a finite verb form. In the field of Portuguese Linguistics, the analysis of these structures has traditionally been conducted from a Generative Grammar perspective postulating abstract rules and transformations in order to explain the variation between these structures. As a result, focus has been put on purely structural aspects, while conceptual differences have been highly neglected. The present book challenges this view of linguistic analysis. Instead of proposing a general semantic content for finite and infinitive adverbial clauses in Portuguese traditionally based on notions like deep structure and surface structure the hypothesis put forward is that these clauses evoke different meanings and that the use of one adverbial structure or another can be explained by the context in which it occurs and by the conceptual content it designates. From a Cognitive Grammar perspective of linguistic analysis, it is shown that Portuguese adverbial structures illustrate the iconic nature of language and that their conceptual meaning can be explained by notions such as prominence, mental spaces, control and subjectification.
