95 Theses on Humanism

Год издания: 0000
Since the rise and growth of secularization, the place of God and religion is becoming increasingly problematic in our Western culture. But what is the alternative to its Christian heritage? Humanism puts «man» at the center of everything, but can you «believe in man» just as much as you can believe in God? Is this secular worldview really rational, based on science, consistent, and durable? And above all, does our society become more humane because of it? Can you simply obliterate God from our culture and values without these collapsing like a pudding? Secular humanism has always been extremely critical of the church–and in itself that is allowed–but what if we judge and measure it with the same criteria?
Suur pettumus ehk humanismi kriis
Автор: Lauri Vahtre
Год издания:
Vaid harva juhtub, et moni inimene voi moni raamat ajaga mitte ei vanane, vaid nooreneb. Tuntud ajaloolase Lauri Vahtre “Suur pettumus” on selline erand. Esmatrukist moodunud aastatega pole see mitte iganenud, vaid muutunud ajakohasemaks ja varskemaks. Moistagi toob lisavarskust raamatu loppu 2016. aasta kevadel kirjutatud uus peatukk.Vahtre kirjutab oma raamatus sellest, kuidas saab ja kuidas ei saa olla inimene; mis tahendus on teistel inimestel ja inimestevahelistel suhetel; kuidas saab ja kuidas ei saa uhitada moisteid “mina”, “meie” ja “nemad”; mis teeb rahvast rahva ja uksikisikust selle rahva liikme; kus on humanismi ning inimoiguste piirid; kus peituvad Laane tsivilisatsiooni suurimad norkused ja ohud. See teos annab votme vaartuste ule jarelemotlemiseks, mida tana, 21. sajandi suhteliselt pidetus maailmas, vaga vajame.Raamat on kirjutatud vestelises, kaasa motlema kutsuvas stiilis, millesse seguneb nii kibedat irooniat kui sobralikku huumorit. Teksti ilmestavad paljud huvitavad elust ja ajaloost toodud naited.
Solid-Phase Organic Syntheses, Volume 2. Solid-Phase Palladium Chemistry
Автор: Peter J. H. Scott
Год издания:
Integrates solid-phase organic synthesis with palladium chemistry The Wiley Series on Solid-Phase Organic Syntheses keeps researchers current with major accomplishments in solid-phase organic synthesis, providing full experimental details. Following the validated, tested, and proven experimental procedures, readers can easily perform a broad range of complex syntheses needed for their own experiments and industrial applications. The series is conveniently organized into themed volumes according to the specific type of synthesis. This second volume in the series focuses on palladium chemistry in solid-phase synthesis, exploring palladium catalysts and reactions, procedures for preparation and utilization, ligands, and linker reactions. The first part of the volume offers a comprehensive overview of the field. Next, the chapters are organized into three parts: Part Two: Palladium-Mediated Solid-Phase Organic Syntheses Part Three: Immobilized Catalysts and Ligands Part Four: Palladium-Mediated Multifunctional Cleavage Each chapter is written by one or more leading international experts in palladium chemistry. Their contributions reflect a thorough examination and review of the current literature as well as their own first-hand laboratory experience. References at the end of each chapter serve as a gateway to the field's literature. The introduction of palladium-mediated, cross-coupling reactions more than thirty years ago revolutionized the science of carbon-carbon bond formation. It has now become a cornerstone of today's synthetic organic chemistry laboratory. With this volume, researchers in organic and medicinal chemistry have access to a single resource that explains the fundamentals of palladium chemistry in solid-phase synthesis and sets forth clear, step-by-step instructions for conducting their own syntheses.
