    Series Statement: The Edinburgh Critical Edition of the Complete Works of Alfred North Whitehead
    Uniform Title: Works Selections
    Content: The first scholarly edition of critically edited, previously unpublished notes of Whitehead’s philosophy lectures from 1925 to 1927Reproduces more than 170 lectures delivered by Alfred North Whitehead during his 2nd and 3rd years at Harvard Provides a window into the development of Whitehead’s thought in the lead up to the publication of his most significant work, Process and RealityReproduces the drawings Whitehead created on the board in class providing new insights into his thinking – invaluable because his published works include no diagramsFor the first time, Whitehead's readers will be able to see the development of his philosophy during the crucial period between the publication of Science and the Modern World and his delivery of the Gifford lectures that would become Process and Reality, as he tests his theories in a classroom setting. These student notes provide the long-missing window into critical developments in Whitehead’s thinking during this time. They challenge longstanding speculations about when exactly Whitehead developed some of his most famous metaphysical concepts, and how those concepts are to be properly interpreted against the wider backdrop of his life and thought.Also included is a transcript of the only known lecture Whitehead delivered on the topic of ethics, two mid-year exams given to his students and nearly 2,000 footnotes that provide additional context for the lectures and alternative student accounts of key passages

    Content: America’s reputation and power fell to new lows during Trump’s presidency. Militarily, the United States held its own, but its soft power suffered mightily. President Biden pledges to work with the international community, rely on cooperation with like-minded allies, challenge adversaries, and restore American democracy, society and economy to levels that will once again command international respect. De-Trumping U.S. Foreign Policy will address the objectives, obstacles, and potential outcomes of this attempt over the next few years. Sloan evaluates both elite and public opinion from democratic allies around the world, plus elite opinions from states less friendly to the United States. He documents and analyses Biden’s approach to foreign policy and his goals for the U.S. role in the world. The volume will also examine how Biden’s domestic policy objectives, in the areas of the pandemic, systemic racism, political equity, the economy and climate change, relate to his foreign policy goals. The early steps made by Biden will be laid out and evaluated and hidden chances of success or failure will be measured, with a striking analysis of what failure might mean for the USA and the world

    Content: "The master of literary theory takes on the master of the detective novel Raymond Chandler, a dazzling stylist and portrayer of American life, holds a unique place in literary history, straddling both pulp fiction and modernism. With The Big Sleep, published in 1939, he left an indelible imprint on the detective novel. Fredric Jameson offers an interpretation of Chandler's work based on reconstructing both the context in which it was written and the social world or totality it projects. Chandler's invariable setting, Los Angeles, appears both as a microcosm of the United States and a prefiguration of its future: a gigantic city built on deliberately ignoring nature, broken into a multitude of private worlds. But this essentially urban and spatial work seems also to be drawn towards a vacuum, an absence that is nothing other than death. With Chandler, the thriller genre becomes metaphysical"...

    Note: Im Gegensatz zu Gerichtsmedizinern arbeiten Forensische Anthropologen nahezu ausschliesslich am Skelett. Sie verfügen über eine aussergewöhnliche Begabung: anhand eines Skeletts oder auch nur einzelner Knochen können sie Alter, Geschlecht, Herkunft und Todesart des Opfers bestimmen. In Knochengeflüster beschreibt William Maples seine vielseitige Arbeit, beispielsweise die Exhumierung der Zarenfamilie und die Aufklärung eines fünffachen Mordes in Florida. Maples' Leben gleicht einem Krimi: ständig ist er von Mord und Selbstmord umgeben, konfrontiert mit den Opfern. Er selbst bezeichnet sich als "Knochenleser", jemanden, der das "Flüstern des Todes" hört und versteht. Es mag paradox und vielleicht makaber klingen, doch Maples' Buch ist ein lebendig geschriebener Erlebnisbericht, ein begeistertes Plädoyer für die forensische Anthropologie. Patricia Cornwell, die Autorin der erfolgreichen Bücher über die Gerichtsmedizinerin Kay Scarpetta, schreibt zu diesem Buch: "Knochengeflüster ist ein Meisterwerk!"
