 Strictly Sequential【電子書籍】[ John O'Loughlin ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Here, at last, is the logical culmination ? one might even say apotheosis ? of John O'Loughlin's decades-long pursuit of philosophical perfection, and although one would be hard-pressed to find anything (outside his own works) remotely akin, much less logically superior, to it in the entire history of philosophy, one could not expect it to appeal to more than a tiny handful of people ? a few of the 'Few' ? given the structural complexities that his uniquely comprehensive approach to philosophical logic entails, even without the addition of concepts like space, time, volume, and mass or, for that matter, being, doing, giving, and taking (not to mention an explicit reference to moderate ecclesiastic and extreme secular permutations), that this thinker has omitted from what is arguably his greatest philosophical achievement, having already dealt with these and other such concepts in earlier works. Here, then, is the sequential antidote to Randomized, the author's previous title, and it must surely be, even without the aforementioned categories, the most comprehensive assessment of the atomic and pseudo-atomic dichotomies underlying class and gender ever undertaken by the human mind. ?

 Sequential Harmony Of The Gospels【電子書籍】[ Bruce A. Wilkinson ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This work presents the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John in sequential harmony with each other. All of the Scripture quoted has been taken directly from the Authorized King James Bible. The idea of presenting the gospels in harmony is not a new concept, but dates back to the middle of the second century A.D. The Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke are referred to as the Synoptic Gospels because they contain such similar content, whereas the Gospel of John tends to stand by itself. 30% of the book of Matthew represents original content not found in the other three. The book of Mark contains 8%, the book of Luke contains 50%, and 92% of the book of John is found to be original. The benefits of viewing the four Gospels in layers so as to expose the distinctive elements of each book are very apparent, for no one book relates the full story on its own. Like Tyndale's concept of the “Peoples Bible”, this work is meant for use as a devotional by the common person. It has not been written with a collection of notes or commentary embedded within the text, but contains pure scripture presented in sequential order, that allows the reader to view the Gospels as one continuing story. This harmony also presents a short synopsis of biblical hermeneutics written from a dispensational, pretribulational point of view to give any student of the Bible a basic understanding of biblical interpretation. It is my prayer that, beside your Bible, this work will give you a more complete understanding of the life of Christ, and will draw you into a closer relationship with the Lord.＜/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。 | 804円 |
 Talking Collective Action A Sequential Analysis of Strategic Planning in Anti-Nuclear Groups【電子書籍】[ Ole P?tz ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞An ethnographic study of anti-nuclear movement groups that both challenges assumptions of traditional social movement studies of strategic action and shows what can be gained through microanalysis of talk in meetings, this book advances social movement studies methodologically and theoretically through the application of a new method of sequential analysis. Drawing on both conversation analysis and objective hermeneutics, it builds on microanalysis to scale up from sequences of talk to meetings, from meetings to groups, and from groups to the anti-nuclear movement, thus addressing a common criticism of analyses of face-to-face interactions: that they fail to demonstrate how their findings are relevant for questions beyond the interaction itself and thus for a broader sociological audience. A demonstration of the ways in which strategic deliberations by activists are subject to dynamics of face-to-face interaction, ＜em＞Talking Collective Action＜/em＞ shows how groups adopt different styles of planning to engage with their environment and affect the groups’ development over time. As such, it will appeal to social scientists with interests in social movements, organizations and conversation analysis.＜/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。 | 9,511円 |

 Sequential Data in Biological Experiments An introduction for research workers【電子書籍】[ Ellis A. Roberts ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞There are many excellent books on general statistical methods in agricul tural and biological research. These books cover a broad range of methods without going into detail on specialized topics. A number of topics including regression analysis, design of experiments, biological assay and categorical analysis have received in-depth treatment in specialized texts. Little appears in standard textbooks on experiments in which observations form sequences. The live weights of animals during a long-term experiment provide a familiar example of data forming a sequence, but many others occur: for example, moisture content of segments of soil cores, successive counts of insects in an orchard and hormone levels in blood over a period. Correla tions are likely to be found among the observations in all these examples. The book by Goldstein (1979) provided the first systematic coverage of the principles involved in longitudinal studies, but is mainly concerned with observational studies on humans. The main aims of this book are to provide research workers with methods of analysing data from comparative experiments with sequential obser vations and to demonstrate special features of the design of such experi ments. These aims are achieved by working through sets of data.＜/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。 | 6,076円 |

 Sequential Analysis and Observational Methods for the Behavioral Sciences【電子書籍】[ Roger Bakeman ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Behavioral scientists ? including those in psychology, infant and child development, education, animal behavior, marketing and usability studies ? use many methods to measure behavior. Systematic observation is used to study relatively natural, spontaneous behavior as it unfolds sequentially in time. This book emphasizes digital means to record and code such behavior; while observational methods do not require them, they work better with them. Key topics include devising coding schemes, training observers and assessing reliability, as well as recording, representing and analyzing observational data. In clear and straightforward language, this book provides a thorough grounding in observational methods along with considerable practical advice. It describes standard conventions for sequential data and details how to perform sequential analysis with a computer program developed by the authors. The book is rich with examples of coding schemes and different approaches to sequential analysis, including both statistical and graphical means.＜/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。 | 6,835円 |

 Proficiency Predictors in Sequential Bilinguals The Proficiency Puzzle【電子書籍】[ Lynette Austin ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This Element provides an overview of research considering variables deemed to impact bilingual language acquisition, and highlights research outcomes from a variety of disciplines. An exploratory study takes into account these variables and examines the language acquisition of adult Spanish-English bilinguals across a range of domains in their two languages. The results demonstrate that the highly interactive nature of bilingual speakers' languages is in line with a holistic view of the dynamic, interdependent nature of bilingualism as described by usage-based theories and dynamic systems theories, and by the conceptualization of bilingual language from a Dynamic Interactive Processing Perspective.＜/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。 | 2,967円 |
 Utilitarianism and Consequentialism: The Ethics of Bentham and Mill【電子書籍】[ Andrew Conley ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜em＞Utilitarianism and Consequentialism: The Ethics of Bentham and Mill＜/em＞ by Andrew Conley provides a comprehensive examination of two of the most influential ethical theories in modern philosophy: utilitarianism and consequentialism. The book traces the development of these theories from their origins in the work of Jeremy Bentham, who established utilitarianism as a moral framework grounded in the maximization of happiness, to the more refined and nuanced version proposed by John Stuart Mill, who expanded upon Bentham's ideas while integrating concerns for individual rights and justice. Through a detailed analysis of their writings and philosophical contributions, Conley explores the strengths and limitations of utilitarianism and its adaptation to contemporary moral dilemmas. The book critically engages with key debates, including the conflict between utilitarian principles and individual rights, the challenges of measuring happiness, and the application of these ideas to modern ethical issues such as public policy, environmental justice, and global inequality. Ultimately, ＜em＞Utilitarianism and Consequentialism＜/em＞ offers a clear and insightful exploration of these theories, their historical context, and their lasting impact on both philosophy and practical ethics.＜/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。 | 450円 |
 Progressive Consequentialism Reflections on the Imperfect Moral Obligations of Imperfect Agents Living in an Imperfect World【電子書籍】[ Mark Vorobej ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞The consequentialist moral stance known as progressive consequentialism is distinguished by its core guiding intuitionー?what Mark Vorobej calls the progressive constraintーthat you are morally required to leave the world in better shape than you found it. Popular culture is replete with references to this intriguing but profoundly ambiguous injunction. Philosophers, however, have had surprisingly little to say about either the meaning, the merits, and the practical implications of this neglected moral claim.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book fills this glaring gap in the literature. Progressive Consequentialism is, first and foremost, a work in moral theory with an aim to carefully disambiguate the progressive constraint and to rigorously explore the semantic content and the normative implications of some of its most promising variants.＜/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。 | 13,785円 |
 1968 The Most Consequential Year In United States History【電子書籍】[ Nick Patz ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞The year 1968 was a crucible for the United States. The country teetered on the edge of chaos. It began the Tet Offensive, a brutal campaign by the North Vietnamese that shattered the illusion of an easy victory in Vietnam. The war, once a distant murmur, was now impossible to ignore. ＜strong＞Nearly 17,000 American soldiers would die in Vietnam that yea＜/strong＞r, the highest toll of any phase of the war. In April, ＜strong＞Martin Luther King Jr.＜/strong＞, the towering figure of the civil rights movement, ＜strong＞was assassinated＜/strong＞. King's death sent shockwaves through the nation, igniting race riots in cities across the country. June brought yet another tragedy. ＜strong＞Robert F. Kennedy＜/strong＞, who seemed poised to secure the Democratic nomination for President, ＜strong＞was gunned down＜/strong＞ just moments after declaring victory in the California primary. The chaotic ＜strong＞Democratic National Convention＜/strong＞ in Chicago that summer, had police clashing violently with protesters. America was watching the brutality unfold on television, Amidst this turmoil, ＜strong＞Richard Nixon was elected President＜/strong＞ on November 5, 1968. Nixon had manipulated the Vietnam conflict to serve his own political ambitions. He ran against Hubert Humphrey, the Vice President who represented the failed policies of the Johnson administration, and George Wallace, the segregationist former governor of Alabama. It was a bitter, divisive election that reflected the deep fractures within American society. You will find that each of events of 1968 that are recounted here were not isolated moments but part of a broader narrative that spanned weeks, months, and even years. I have tried to keep these events in somewhat chronological order, but history, like life, is rarely so neat. I hope that by weaving together these threads, I can offer a clearer picture of why 1968 was such a consequential year-both for me and for the nation.＜/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。 | 683円 |

 The Best Effect Theology and the Origins of Consequentialism【電子書籍】[ Ryan Darr ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜strong＞A theological history of consequentialism and a fresh agenda for teleological ethics.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Consequentialismーthe notion that we can judge an action by its effects aloneーhas been among the most influential approaches to ethics and public policy in the Anglophone world for more than two centuries. In ＜em＞The Best Effect＜/em＞, Ryan Darr argues that consequentialist ethics is not as secular or as rational as it is often assumed to be. Instead, Darr describes the emergence of consequentialism in the seventeenth century as a theological and cosmological vision and traces its intellectual development and eventual secularization across several centuries. ＜em＞The Best Effect＜/em＞ reveals how contemporary consequentialism continues to bear traces of its history and proposes in its place a more expansive vision for teleological ethics.＜/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。 | 4,513円 |
 Consequential Museum Spaces Representing African American History and Culture【電子書籍】[ Bettina Messias Carbonell ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞In Consequential Museum Spaces: Representing African American History and Culture, Bettina Messias Carbonell examines how African American history and culture isーand historically has beenーrepresented in culturally specific and mainstream museums. Carbonell argues that African American museums provide a corrective history that is both argumentative and pragmatic: these museums educate and enlighten, and they seek to effect change. Themes examined here include settlement narratives; key movements and individuals in political, social, and military history; the treatment of slavery includingthe African, transatlantic, and American slave trade and the long history of slavery as an institution in the United States; the status of Africaーthe continent and individual countries and regionsーas a source of origins and traditions and a destination for reconnection with the past; and activism and human rights. Carbonell considers this museum-based work in the context of relevant historical (written) texts and in the context of contemporary theories involving memory and history, corrective history, intergenerational trauma, human rights, and historical consciousness.＜/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。 | 10,973円 |

 A Consequentialist Defense of Libertarianism【電子書籍】[ Richard Fumerton ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞In A Consequentialist Defense of Libertarianism, Richard Fumerton argues that empirical facts concerning consequences must always play a crucial role in a plausible defense of freedom. After making distinctions between morality and law, he defends the view that it is a fundamental mistake to think that the law should always, or even usually, attempt to mirror morality. With this framework in place, Fumerton addresses various controversial questions concerning when the law ought to side with freedom. He offers a nuanced defense of several positions shared by many "moderate" libertarians.＜br /＞ This consequentialist defense of freedom offers a fresh perspective on some very old philosophical debates. As more people become frustrated with a perceived lack of principled attempts by established political parties to appreciate important concerns people have involving their desire for freedom, the issues discussed in this book are particularly timely.＜/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。 | 4,580円 |
 The Oxford Handbook of Consequentialism【電子書籍】 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Consequentialism is a major moral theory in contemporary philosophy: it is the view that the only thing that matters when making moral decisions is the outcome of those decisions. Consequentialists hold that to morally assess an act, we must first evaluate and rank the various ways that things could turn out depending on whether it or some alternative act is performed. Whether we should perform that act thus depends on how its outcome ranks relative to those of its alternatives. Consequentialism rivals deontology, contractualism, and virtue ethics, but, more importantly, it has influenced contemporary moral philosophy such that the consequentialist/non-consequentialist distinction is one of the most central in normative ethics. After all, every plausible moral theory must concede that the goodness of an act's consequences is something that matters, even if it's not the only thing that matters. Thus, all plausible moral theories will accept that both 1) an act's producing good consequences constitutes a moral reason to perform it, and 2) the better its consequences, the more of a moral reason there is to perform it. In this way, much of consequentialist ethical theory is important for normative ethics in general. This Oxford Handbook contains thirty-two previously unpublished contributions by top moral philosophers examining the current state of play in consequentialism and pointing to new directions for future research. The volume is organized into four major sections: foundational issues; objections to consequentialism; its forms and limits; and consequentialism's implications for policy, practice, and social reform.＜/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。 | 22,612円 |
 Common-Sense Morality and Consequentialism【電子書籍】[ Michael A. Slote ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Originally published in 1985 and now re-issued with a new preface, this study assesses the two major moral theories of ethical consequentialism and common-sense morality by means of mutual comparison and an attempt to elicit the implications and tendencies of each theory individually. The author shows that criticisms and defences of common-sense morality and of consequentialism give inadequate characterizations of the dispute between them and thus at best provide incomplete rationales for either of these influential moral views. Both theories face inherent difficulties, some familiar but others mentioned for the first time in this work.

The First Consequentialists【電子書籍】[ Chris Fraser ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Mohism was an ancient Chinese philosophical movement founded in the fifth century BCE by the charismatic artisan M?zi, or "Master Mo." Its practitioners advanced a consequentialist ethics, along with fascinating political, logical, and epistemological theories, that set the terms of philosophical argumentation and reflection in China for generations to come. Mohism faded away in the imperial era, leaving the impression that it was not as vital as other Chinese philosophical traditions, yet a complete understanding of Confucianism or Daoism is impossible without appreciating the seminal contribution of Mohist thought.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞The Philosophy of the M?zi＜/em＞ is an extensive study of Mohism, situating the movement's rise and decline within Chinese history. The book also emphasizes Mohism's relevance to modern systems of thought. Mohism anticipated Western utilitarianism by more than two thousand years. Its political theory is the earliest to outline a just war doctrine and locate the origins of government in a state of nature. Its epistemology, logic, and psychology provide compelling alternatives to contemporary Western mentalism. More than a straightforward account of Mohist principles and practice, this volume immerses readers in the Mohist mindset and clarifies its underpinning of Chinese philosophical discourse.＜/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。 | 5,755円 |
 Consequential Damages of Nuclear War The Rongelap Report【電子書籍】[ Barbara Rose Johnston ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞The hydrogen test-bomb Bravo, dropped on the Marshall Islands in 1954, had enormous consequences for the Rongelap people. Anthropologists Barbara Rose Johnston and Holly Barker provide incontrovertible evidence of physical and financial damages to individuals and cultural and psycho-social damages to the community through use of declassified government documents, oral histories and ethnographic research, conducted with the Marshallese community within a unique collaborative framework. Their work helped produce a $1 billion award by the Nuclear Claims Tribunal and raises issues of bioethics, government secrecy, human rights, military testing, and academic activism. The report, reproduced here with accompanying materials, should be read by everyone concerned with the effects of nuclear war and is an essential text for courses in history, environmental studies, bioethics, human rights, and related subjects.＜/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。 | 10,156円 |
 Facing Up to Scarcity The Logic and Limits of Nonconsequentialist Thought【電子書籍】[ Barbara H. Fried ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Facing Up to Scarcity offers a powerful critique of the nonconsequentialist approaches that have been dominant in Anglophone moral and political thought over the last fifty years. In these essays Barbara H. Fried examines the leading schools of contemporary nonconsequentialist thought, including Rawlsianism, Kantianism, libertarianism, and social contractarianism. In the realm of moral philosophy, she argues that nonconsequentialist theories grounded in the sanctity of "individual reasons" cannot solve the most important problems taken to be within their domain. Those problems, which arise from irreducible conflicts among legitimate (and often identical) individual interests, can be resolved only through large-scale interpersonal trade-offs of the sort that nonconsequentialism foundationally rejects. In addition to scrutinizing the internal logic of nonconsequentialist thought, Fried considers the disastrous social consequences when nonconsequentialist intuitions are allowed to drive public policy. In the realm of political philosophy, she looks at the treatment of distributive justice in leading nonconsequentialist theories. Here one can design distributive schemes roughly along the lines of the outcomes favoured--but those outcomes are not logically entailed by the normative premises from which they are ostensibly derived, and some are extraordinarily strained interpretations of those premises. Fried concludes, as a result, that contemporary nonconsequentialist political philosophy has to date relied on weak justifications for some very strong conclusions.＜/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。 | 11,647円 |
 Virtue Rediscovered Deontology, Consequentialism, and Virtue Ethics in the Contemporary Moral Landscape【電子書籍】[ Nathan Wood ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Virtue ethics occupies the strange position of being one of the oldest and most prominently discussed ethical theories throughout history, and yet many contemporary moral philosophers do not recognize it as a genuine alternative to currently prominent normative theories, such as utilitarianism or Kantian ethics. In Virtue Rediscovered: Deontology, Consequentialism, and Virtue Ethics in the Contemporary Moral Landscape, Nathan Wood argues that this discrepancy requires us to rethink how we understand the function and purpose of normative ethical theories, especially insofar as such theories are expected to be action guiding. All ethical theories guide action, but they do so in two different ways. One way is through stipulating criteria for what we ought to do, but another way is setting a core concern that represents an account of what lies at the heart of morality and determines the moral salience of features in the world. This framework not only clarifies the nature of deontology, consequentialism, and virtue ethics, but also recasts the debate among them.＜/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。 | 12,057円 |
