Contributing to her image as a tragic heroine, she died at the age of 53.</p> <p><em><strong>Where Madness Lies</strong></em> begins in 1953, when Leigh suffered a nervous breakdown and was institutionalised. The woeful story unfolds as she tries to rebuild her life, salvage her career and save her marriage.</p> <p>Featuring a wealth of unpublished material, including private correspondence, bestselling author Lyndsy Spence reveals the woman behind the legendary image: a woman who remained strong in the face of adversity</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p><strong>The world expert in multisensory perception on the remarkable ways we can use our senses to lead richer lives</strong></p> <p><strong>'Talks total sense, lots of fun facts, right up there with the best of the best' Chris Evans</strong></p> <p><strong>'Packed with studies on pain, attention, memory, mood' <em>The Times</em></strong></p> <p><em>How can the furniture in your home affect your wellbeing? What colour clothing will help you play sport better? And what simple trick will calm you after a tense day at work?</em></p> <p>In this revelatory book, pioneering and entertaining Oxford professor Charles Spence shows how our senses change how we think and feel, and how by 'hacking' them we can reduce stress, become more productive and be happier.</p> <p>We like to think of ourselves as rational beings, and yet it's the scent of expensive face cream that removes wrinkles (temporarily), a room actually feels warmer if you use a warmer paint colour, and the noise of the crowd really does affect the referee's decision. Understanding how our senses interact can produce incredible results.

God's Chinese Son: The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom of Hong Xiuquan【電子書籍】[ Jonathan D. Spence ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>"A magnificent tapestry . . . a story that reaches beyond China into our world and time: a story of faith, hope, passion, and a fatal grandiosity."--<em>Washington Post Book World</em></strong></p> <p>Whether read for its powerful account of the largest uprising in human history, or for its foreshadowing of the terrible convulsions suffered by twentieth-century China, or for the narrative power of a great historian at his best, <em>God's Chinese Son</em> must be read. At the center of this history of China's Taiping rebellion (1845-64) stands Hong Xiuquan, a failed student of Confucian doctrine who ascends to heaven in a dream and meets his heavenly family: God, Mary, and his older brother, Jesus. He returns to earth charged to eradicate the "demon-devils," the alien Manchu rulers of China. His success carries him and his followers to the heavenly capital at Nanjing, where they rule a large part of south China for more than a decade. Their decline and fall, wrought by internal division and the unrelenting military pressures of the Manchus and the Western powers, carry them to a hell on earth. Twenty million Chinese are left dead.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Stoic Philosophy and the Control Problem of AI Technology Caught in the Web【電子書籍】[ Edward H. Spence ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>To what degree is technology in the form of products and processes capable of contributing human enhancement and wellbeing?</p> <p>In cases where the impact of a technology on society is not only very negligible but overall negative and harmful, what is technology good for?</p> <p>To answer these questions, Spence develops and applies a normative model based on rationalist and virtue ethics as well as stoic philosophy. Its primary purpose is to determine the essential conditions that any normative theory that seeks to assess the impact of technology on wellbeing must adequately address in order to be able to account for, explain and evaluate what contribution, if any, technology is capable of making to the attainment and enhancement of human wellbeing. Through developing this model, Spence offers a novel and important examination of the benefit of technology to our society as a whole.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Factors of Organic Evolution Unraveling the Intricate Mechanisms of Evolutionary Development and Adaptation【電子書籍】[ Herbert Spencer ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Herbert Spencer's "The Factors of Organic Evolution" presents a pioneering exploration of evolutionary theory within the framework of a philosophical perspective. In this seminal work, Spencer articulates the interplay between the laws of nature and the principles of biological evolution, emphasizing the significance of heredity, variation, and the struggle for existence. His literary style is both analytical and philosophical, enriched by the scientific discourse of the late 19th century, allowing the reader to engage with complex ideas through clear prose. This book serves as a critical bridge between pre-Darwinian thoughts and the emergent evolutionary principles that would shape biological sciences. As a prominent figure in the Victorian era, Spencer was influenced by contemporary scientific advancements as well as philosophical ideologies, particularly those surrounding social Darwinism. His background in natural sciences and sociology informed his belief that evolutionary principles could explain not only biological phenomena but also social progress. This dual lens of inquiry reveals his ambition to synthesize diverse intellectual traditions, positioning him as a forerunner in both sociology and biology. Readers interested in the foundations of evolutionary thought and its implications for understanding both the natural world and human society will find "The Factors of Organic Evolution" essential. Spencer's insights remain highly relevant, prompting thoughtful reflection on the intersection of science, philosophy, and the evolution of both life and ideas.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Reign of Terror How the 9/11 Era Destabilized America and Produced Trump【電子書籍】[ Spencer Ackerman ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>**A <em>New York Times</em> Critics’ Top Book of 2021</p> <p>"An impressive combination of diligence and verve, deploying Ackerman’s deep stores of knowledge as a national security journalist to full effect. The result is a narrative of the last 20 years that is upsetting, discerning and brilliantly argued." ー<em>The New York Times</em></p> <p>"One of the most illuminating books to come out of the Trump era." ー<em>New York Magazine</em></p> <p>An examination of the profound impact that the War on Terror had in pushing American politics and society in an authoritarian direction**</p> <p>For an entire generation, at home and abroad, the United States has waged an endless conflict known as the War on Terror. In addition to multiple ground wars, the era pioneered drone strikes and industrial-scale digital surveillance; weakened the rule of law through indefinite detentions; sanctioned torture; and manipulated the truth about it all. These conflicts have yielded neither peace nor victory, but they have transformed America. What began as the persecution of Muslims and immigrants has become a normalized feature of American politics and nationalsecurity, expanding the possibilities for applying similar or worse measures against other targets at home, as the summer of 2020 showed. A politically divided and economically destabilized country turned the War on Terror into a culturalーand then a tribalーstruggle. It began on the ideological frontiers of the Republican Party before expanding to conquer the GOP, often with the acquiescence of the Democratic Party. Today’s nativist resurgence walked through a door opened by the 9/11 era. And that door remains open.</p> <p><em>Reign of Terror</em> shows how these developments created an opportunityfor American authoritarianism and gave rise to Donald Trump. It shows that Barack Obama squandered an opportunity to dismantle the War on Terror after killing Osama bin Laden. By the end of his tenure, the war had metastasized into a bitter, broader cultural struggle in search of a demagogue like Trump to lead it.</p> <p><em>Reign of Terror</em> is a pathbreaking and definitive union of journalism and intellectual history with the power to transform how America understands its national security policies and their catastrophic impact on civic life.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Coming Slavery A Thought-Provoking Critique of State Intervention and Individual Freedom【電子書籍】[ Herbert Spencer ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "The Coming Slavery," Herbert Spencer presents a profound exploration of the evolving dynamics between individual liberties and state authority during the late 19th century. Written in Spencer's characteristic analytical style, the book employs a blend of philosophical inquiry and social critique, positing that increasing governmental control may lead societies toward a form of slavery that undermines personal freedom. Engaging with contemporary debates around socialism and individualism, Spencer's work reveals the tensions inherent in the interplay of social policy and personal autonomy, reflecting the anxieties of an era grappling with industrialization and its implications for liberty. Herbert Spencer, a prominent philosopher and sociologist, was a leading figure in the development of social Darwinism and is known for his ideas on individualism and laissez-faire economics. Influenced by the rapid social changes of his time, Spencer sought to articulate a defense of freedom against the encroachments of the state. His extensive background in natural science greatly informed his sociological perspectives, enabling him to draw parallels between biological evolution and social progress. This background undergirded his urgent call to preserve individual rights in the face of growing authoritarianism. "The Coming Slavery" is a vital read for anyone interested in the foundations of modern political thought and the relentless struggle for personal freedom. Spencer'??s prescient warnings resonate powerfully in contemporary discussions around governance and personal autonomy, making this work essential for students of philosophy, sociology, and political science alike.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

He posits that style is not merely an embellishment of language but a fundamental aspect of effective communication, arguing that the clarity and coherence of expression reflect the thought processes behind it. Spencer's work is characterized by its analytical tone and systemic approach, delving into grammar, syntax, and the economy of expression, making it a pioneering text in stylistic theory that resonates with contemporary discussions on rhetoric and composition. Herbert Spencer, a prominent figure in the intellectual landscape of the 19th century, was not only a philosopher but also a social theorist known for his application of evolutionary concepts to various fields, including ethics and education. His diverse background provided him with a unique lens through which he viewed language and style, underscoring the interconnectedness of thought and literary expression. This framework reflects Spencer's commitment to understanding the principles that govern communication, influenced by his evolutionary perspective on human development. For scholars, writers, and anyone interested in the mechanics of language, 'The Philosophy of Style' is an indispensable resource that encourages reflection on the nuances of expression. Spencer's thoughtful navigation of style elevates the reader's approach to writing, advocating for clarity and conciseness that remains relevant today. This book is not merely a guide on style; it is a philosophical treatise that invites readers to appreciate the deeper implications of how we communicate.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Raising Them Right The Untold Story of America's Ultraconservative Youth Movement and Its Plot for Power【電子書籍】[ Kyle Spencer ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>A riveting behind-the-scenes account of the new stars of the far rightーand how they’ve partnered with billionaire donors, idealogues, and political insiders to build the most powerful youth movement the American right has ever seen</strong></p> <p>In the wake of the Obama presidency, a group of young charismatic conservatives catapulted onto the American political and cultural scenes, eager to thwart nationwide pushes for greater equity and inclusion. They dreamed of a cultural revolutionーonline and offーthat would offer a forceful alternative to the progressive politics that were dominating American college campuses.</p> <p>In <em>Raising Them Right</em>, a gripping, character-driven read and investigative tour de force, Kyle Spencer chronicles the people and organizations working to lure millions of unsuspecting young American voters into the far-right foldーrevealing their highly successful efforts to harness social media in alarming ways and capitalize on the democratization of celebrity culture.</p> <p>These power-hungry new faces may look and sound like antiestablishment renegades, but they are actually part of a tightly organized and heavily funded ultraconservative initiative to transform American youth culture and popularize fringe ideas. There is Charlie Kirk, the swashbuckling Trump insider and founder of the right-wing youth activist group Turning Point USA, who dreams of taking back the country’s soul from weak-kneed liberals and becoming a national powerbroker in his own right. There is the acid-tongued Candace Owens, a Black ultraconservative talk-show host and Fox News regular who is seeking to bring Black America to the GOP and her own celebritydom into the national forefront. And then there is the young, rough-and-tumble libertarian Cliff Maloney, who built the Koch-affiliated organization Young Americans for Liberty into a political force to be reckoned with, while solidifying his own power and pull inside conservative circles.</p> <p>Chock-full of original reporting and unprecedented access, <em>Raising Them Right</em> is a striking prism through which to view the extraordinary shifts that have taken place in the American political sphere over the last decade. It establishes Kyle Spencer as the premier authority on a new generation of young conservative communicators who are merging politics and pop culture, social media and social lives, to bring cruel economic philosophies, skeletal government, and dangerous antidemocratic ideals into the mainstream. Theirs is a crusade that is just beginning.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
