unequal eugenia cheng

Playful and deeply serious ... shows how exploring equality in maths may help the real world NEW SCIENTIST Eugenia Cheng has humour, grace and a natural gift DANIEL LEVITIN Clear, clever and friendly...even at her most whimsical, she is rigorous and insightful ALEX BELLOSAt first glance, the concept of equality in maths seems unambiguous. When we see the equality sign, we think of solving for x or balancing two sides of an equation or maybe even the many famous equations that make use of this elegant, innocuous symbol. But between those parallel lines lies a mathematical playground of choice and abstraction, leading to far greater insight than you could have dreamed. As it turns out, sameness and difference, equality and inequality, are not nearly as straightforward as they seem. Unequal explores the rich and rewarding interplay between sameness and difference, from numbers to manifolds to category theory and beyond in a glorious celebration of mathematics that will change the way you look at maths - and the world around you - forever.

A revelatory look at how the NYPD has resisted change through strategic and selective community engagement.  The past few years have seen Americans express passionate demands for police transformation. But even as discussion of no-knock warrants, chokeholds, and body cameras has exploded, any changes to police procedures have only led to the same outcomes. Despite calls for increased accountability, police departments have successfully stonewalled change.   In The Policing Machine, Tony Cheng reveals the stages of that resistance, offering a close look at the deep engagement strategies that NYPD precincts have developed with only subsets of the community in order to counter any truly meaningful, democratic oversight. Cheng spent nearly two years in an unprecedented effort to understand the who and how of police-community relationship building in New York City, documenting the many ways the police strategically distributed power and privilege within the community to increase their own public legitimacy without sacrificing their organizational independence. By setting up community councils that are conveniently run by police allies, handing out favors to local churches that will promote the police to their parishioners, and offering additional support to institutions friendly to the police, the NYPD, like police departments all over the country, cultivates political capital through a strategic politics that involves distributing public resources, offering regulatory leniency, and deploying coercive force. The fundamental challenge with police-community relationships, Cheng shows, is not to build them. It is that they already exist and are motivated by a machinery designed to stymie reform. Â

A first-hand account of China s cultural revolution.Nien Cheng, an anglophile and fluent English-speaker who worked for Shell in Shanghai under Mao, was put under house arrest by Red Guards in 1966 and subsequently jailed. All attempts to make her confess to the charges of being a British spy failed; all efforts to indoctrinate her were met by a steadfast and fearless refusal to accept the terms offered by her interrogators. When she was released from prison she was told that her daughter had committed suicide. In fact Meiping had been beaten to death by Maoist revolutionaries.

⠜I moved to a country called writing⠝ declares Tim Tim Cheng in this striking debut collection. The Tattoo Collector explores family history, displacement, politics, protest, and, as it moves between East and West, the uses of language to illustrate and interrogate what lies in between. As these poems range from Hong Kong, Scotland, and London, they unravel the relationship between the body, ecology and class with precise and haunting tenderness.Here, in Cheng⠙s illuminating and needle-sharp poems, the tattoo is a narrative, the body a radical means of expression. In states of flux, between resisting and belonging, we enter museums, hospitals, graveyards, and gigs. These intimate and polyphonic poems invite us to be troubled and enthralled by exhibits and the stories they have to tell, to look inside the glass box and study what is on display. Close-up, the poems bring into the daylight details that can be seen skin-deep on the surface, as well as those which point to another meaning, inked indelibly, beneath.

One of the world s greatest fantasy novels, and a timeless classic of Chinese literatureOne of China s Four Great Classical Novels, Monkey King was written anonymously during the Ming dynasty and is most commonly attributed to Wu Cheng en, the son of a silk-shop clerk from east China. It recounts a Tang-dynasty monk s quest for Buddhist scriptures, accompanied by an omni-talented kung-fu Monkey King called Sun Wukong; a rice-loving divine pig; and a depressive man-eating river-sand monster. Comparable to The Canterbury Tales or Don Quixote, the tale is at once a comic adventure story, a humorous satire of Chinese bureaucracy, a spring of spiritual insight and an extended allegory in which the group of pilgrims journeys towards enlightenment.

Úvahy o zlu a rozmanitosti jeho forem a projevů, kritika církve, která institucí ďábla vytváří v lidech pocity strachu a zajišťuje si tak jejich poslušnost. Strach je podle Drewermanna každému jedinci vštěpován na samém počátku jeho individuálního života. Je to strach z porušení desatera a jeho výkladů, strach z toho, že člověk bude vyloučen z komunity a bude muset žít sám. Církvi se podařilo vytvořit obecně platnou konvenci, že ďábel je analogií zla, čemuž je potřeba se vyhnout, obávat se, mít strach. V souladu s automatickým přijetím této teorie pak atmosféru strachu jako jistého výchovného rituálu lze snadno obecně zneužívat, což v důsledku může vést k různým neurotickým a psychotickým onemocněním, upozorňuje Drewermann a odkazuje na svou praxi psychoterapeuta. Teolog, psycholog, filosof a spisovatel Eugen Drewermann v knize (text je koncipovan jako rozhovor novináře J. D. Kogela s Drewermannem) rozvíjí také své úvahy o lidské agresi, zoufalství a víře, odpuštění a negaci, nahodilosti a hledání ospravedlnění v existenci, o biologii, sociální psychologii a psychoanalýze, o teologické nauce o prvotním hříchu a vykoupení, o církevní hrozbě pekla a křesťanské naději v nebe. Eugen Drewermann byl profesorem katolické dogmatické teologie v Paderbornu. Roku 1991 mu pro jeho nekonformní názory na morální teologii a biblistiku bylo místním arcibiskupem odňato povolení vyučovat a roku 1992 i povolení kázat. V tomtéž roce byl pak i suspendován z kněžského úřadu. Roku 2005 Drewermann oznámil, že vystupuje z katolické církve. Drewermann je v Německu považován za jednoho z významných myslitelů a nemnoha zbývajících univerzálních vzdělanců.

Proč jednomu klientovi psychoterapie nepomůže, zatímco jiný z ní má velký prospěch? Právě tak se od roku 1953 ptal Rogersův žák Eugen Gendlin, který na Chicagské univerzitě celých 15 let na tuto otázku hledal odpověď. Podle Gendlina záleží na tom, jestli klient dokáže zastavit tok myšlení a naladit se na své nitro – na jemné procesy na pomezí těla a mysli. Měřítko pro to, co je pro klienta dobré a smysluplné, se nachází v tzv. pociťovaném smyslu: Klient sleduje své tělesné prožitky a ty zachycuje prostřednictvím slov, obrazů či gest. To jej samo o sobě uvolní a zároveň mu to poskytne materiál, který může zakomponovat do kontextu svého života a provést žádoucí změny. Tato jednoduchá metoda je dnes užívána v psychoterapii a arteterapii, ale může ji v rámci vlastního rozvoje provádět kdokoli, kdo chce zlepšit například vlastní kreativitu, schopnost introspekce a rozhodování. Prakticky zaměřená kniha vás provede procesem focusingu v jeho jednotlivých krocích a připraví vás na typické obtíže, s nimiž se při této metodě můžete setkat. Eugene T. Gendlin (1926–2017) se narodil ve Vídni do židovské rodiny, která před druhou světovou válkou odešla do USA. Získal doktorát z filozofie na Chicagské univerzitě, kde v letech 1964–1995 vyučoval. Více ale proslul jako žák Carla Rogerse, významný badatel v oblasti prožitkové psychoterapie a tvůrce focusingu, za což byl oceněn například Americkou psychologickou asociací. V češtině kromě jeho zásadní knihy s názvem Focusing vyšel i výbor statí Dialog s prožíváním.

The inspiration behind the HBO series THE PACIFICThis was a brutish, primitive hatred, as characteristic of the horror of war in the Pacific as the palm trees and the islands...Landing on the beach at Peleliu in 1944 as a twenty-year-old new recruit to the US Marines, Eugene Sledge can only try desperately to survive. At Peleliu and Okinawa - two of the fiercest and filthiest Pacific battles of WWII - he witnesses the dehumanising brutality displayed by both sides and the animal hatred that each soldier has for his enemy.During temporary lapses in the fighting, conditions on the islands mean that the Marines often can t wash, stay dry, dig latrines, or even find time to eat. Suffering from constant fear, fatigue, and filth, the struggle of simply living in a combat zone is utterly debilitating.Yet despite horrendous conditions Sledge finds time to keep notes that he would later turn into a book. Described as one of the finest memoirs to emerge from any war, With the Old Breed tells with compassion and honesty of the cruelty, bravery and deaths of the men he fought alongside, and of his own journey from patriotic innocence to battle-scarred veteran. Eugene Sledge became more than a legend with his memoir, With The Old Breed. He became a chronicler, a historian, a storyteller who turns the extremes of the war in the Pacific - the terror, the camaraderie, the banal and the extraordinary - into terms we mortals can grasp Tom Hanks

Eugene Onegin is the master work of the poet whom Russians regard as the fountainhead of their literature. Set in 1820s imperial Russia, Pushkin s novel in verse follows the emotions and destiny of three men - Onegin the bored fop, Lensky the minor elegiast, and a stylized Pushkin himself - and the fates and affections of three women - Tatyana the provincial beauty, her sister Olga, and Pushkin s mercurial Muse. Engaging, full of suspense, and varied in tone, it also portrays a large cast of other characters and offers the reader many literary, philosophical, and autobiographical digressions, often in a highly satirical vein. Eugene Onegin was Pushkin s own favourite work, and it shows him attempting to transform himself from a romantic poet into a realistic novelist. This new translation seeks to retain both the literal sense and the poetic music of the original, and capture the poem s spontaneity and wit. The introduction examines several ways of reading the novel, and text is richly annotated. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

*FULLY UPDATED WITH A NEW FOREWORD*THE SUNDAY TIMES TOP TEN BESTSELLERWINNER OF THE BRITISH ARMY MILITARY BOOK OF THE YEAR 2016 Truly essential Simon Sebag MontefioreThe final destruction of the Ottoman Empire - one of the great epics of the First World War, from bestselling historian Eugene RoganFor some four centuries the Ottoman Empire had been one of the most powerful states in Europe as well as ruler of the Middle East. By 1914 it had been drastically weakened and circled by numerous predators waiting to finish it off. Following the Ottoman decision to join the First World War on the side of the Central Powers the British, French and Russians hatched a plan to finish the Ottomans off: an ambitious and unprecedented invasion of Gallipoli...Eugene Rogan s remarkable book recreates one of the most important but poorly understood fronts of the First World War. Despite fighting back with great skill and ferocity against the Allied onslaught and humiliating the British both at Gallipoli and in Mesopotamia (Iraq), the Ottomans were ultimately defeated, clearing the way for the making, for better or worse, of a new Middle East which has endured to the present.

Ak je niekto zo Slovákov žijúci v cudzine dobre známy medzi krajanmi v Amerike, Kanade, Argentíne, Austrálii, v Nemecku a inde, tak je to bez pochyby Ignác Zelenka, básnickým pseudonymom Eugen Vesnin (1913 - 1983). Poznajú ho nielen Slováci, ale vďaka jeho vedeckému a básnickému dielu aj mnohí cudzinci. Jeho básne boli preložené do viacerých jazykov, pričom odborná kritika ich prijala pochvalne. Žiaľ, takmer neznámy alebo málo známy je doma, na Slovensku. A prečo? Všetky jeho diela vyšli v zahraničí a sú už len ťažko dostupné. Ako napísal autor František Michalovič (editor) ... táto kniha vychádza na počesť 100. výročia narodenia a 30. výročia smrti básnika, prekladateľa, redaktora a renomovaného knihovníka-bibliografa... Ako prvý pokus priblížiť Vesnina slovenskej verejnosti. Je to výber z jeho poézie, ktorý ho predstavuje ako básnika, ale najmä ako človeka... človeka, ktorý z tohto sveta odišiel ako muž bez občianstva, pretože česko-slovenského sa po vojne zriekol a o talianske, hoci žil na Apeninskom polostrove polstoročie, nikdy nepožiadal...

Eugen Brikcius je literární gurmet: svůj memoár pojal jako pestrou koláž, jako žánrovou i stylistickou mozaiku, jako přirozenou syntézu bohatýrského těla s jasným a silným duchem. Jeho život je jeho dílem. Jeho dílo je jeho životem. Boří staré mýty, aby postavil na jejich místě mýtus nový - sebemýtus. A to s nezaměnitelným vtipem a hrou, noblesou i naléhavostí. Protože píše-li o sobě, píše vždycky i o druhých. Memoárová kniha básníka a filozofa, průkopníka českého happeningu, narozeného v roce 1942 v Praze a žijícího od počátku 80. let ve Vídni. V 60. letech aktivní výtvarný umělec, v 70. letech vězeň komunistického režimu a básník v novolatině, v 80. letech absolvent prestižní University College v Londýně a exulant, od počátku 90. let jedna z klíčových postav české kultury.

Začalo to v září 2014 s novým formátem kulturního magazínu Uni. Od té doby píše Eugen Brikcius měsíc co měsíc pro tohle médium své postily. Pak, v roce 2017, vyšlo prvních šestatřicet postil knižně. Tomáš Kubíček je označil v doslovu směle za román o románu . Tedy za šestatřicet minutových románů, které skládají background nebo pandán k Eugenově Nepředmětné odyseji. Tu můžeme číst jako jistou bilanci autorova života a díla: žitého díla a dělaného života. Prostě života učiněného dílem, fyziku povýšenou na metafyziku. Autorovi se ta žánrová škatulka náramně zalíbila. Bodejť by ne, když ve svých dosavadních titulech předvádí právě tohle: funkční žánrový mix, kde jsou v jedné řadě skočný verš, napínavé dějové vyprávění, aforistická zkratka, filozofická hloubka i esejistická šíře. A vždycky přes vybraná jména, napříč víc než dvěma tisíciletími času, napříč kulturami a živými i mrtvými jazyky, jako by ti spříznění volbou seděli s Evženem u jednoho stolu - právě teď a právě tady.

This remarkable book recreates one of the watershed moments in the history of the Middle East: the ferocious outbreaks of disorder across the Levant in 1860 which resulted in the massacre of thousands of Christians in Damascus. Eugene Rogan brilliantly recreates the lost world of the Middle East under Ottoman rule.The once mighty empire was under pressure from global economic change and European imperial expansion. Reforms in the mid-nineteenth century raised tensions across the empire, nowhere more so than in Damascus. A multifarious city linked by caravan trade to Baghdad, the Mediterranean and Mecca, the chaos of languages, customs and beliefs made Damascus a warily tolerant place.Until the reforms began to advantage the minority Christian community at the expense of the Muslim majority. But in 1860 people who had generally lived side by side for generations became bitter enemies as news of civil war in Mount Lebanon arrived in the city. Under the threat of a French expeditionary force, the Ottomans dealt with the disaster effectively and ruthlessly - but the old, generally quite tolerant Damascene world lay in ruins.It would take a quarter of a century to restore stability and prosperity to the Syrian capital. This is both an essential book for understanding the emergence of the modern Middle East from the destruction of the old Ottoman world, and a uniquely gripping story.

The path to achieving Zen (a balance between the body and the mind) is brilliantly explained by Professor Eugen Herrigel in this timeless account.This book is the result of the authorâ ™s six year quest to learn archery in the hands of Japanese Zen masters. It is an honest account of one manâ ™s journey to complete abandonment of â ˜the selfâ ™ and the Western principles that we use to define ourselves. Professor Herrigel imparts knowledge from his experiences and guides the reader through physical and spiritual lessons in a clear and insightful way. Mastering archery is not the key to achieving Zen, and this is not a practical guide to archery. It is more a guide to Zen principles and learning and perfect for practitioners and non-practitioners alike.

This book brings together a collection of essays written by scholars inspired by Eugene GendlinÂ’s work, particularly those interested in thinking with and beyond Gendlin for the sake of a global community facing significant crises. The contributors take inspiration from GendlinÂ’s philosophy of the implicit, and his theoretical approach to psychology. The essays engage with GendlinÂ’s ideas for our era, including critiques and corrections as well as extrapolations of his work. Gendlin himself worried that knowing about a problem is too often conflated with actions that might lead to change; the essays in this book point to a form of understanding that is activated, an embodied and immediate way of thinking about todayÂ’s problems. Throughout the volume, the contributors creatively engage with GendlinÂ’s work and its applicability to the complex, pressing crises of our time: the Covid-19 pandemic, environmental/climate issues, racism, sexism, economic inequality, and other factors threatening human persons and communities. GendlinÂ’s theoretical approach to psychology is naturally interdisciplinary, making this book an essential read for anyone interested in moving to the boundaries where psychology meets philosophy, theology, art, environmental studies, science, technology, and much more.

Focusing is a technique first developed 25 years ago by American psychologist and philosopher Eugene Gendlin. Hugely influential, it offers six specific steps you can take to open up your inner world of deeper feelings and intuition - and shows you how to listen to others with more empathy. Short, very accessible yet also profound, this book is even more relevant today than it was when originally published.

⠜Everything is sad,⠝ wrote the Ancient poets. But is this sadness merely a human experience, projected onto the world, or is there a gloom attributable to the world itself? Could the universe be forever weeping the ⠜tears of things⠝? In this series of meditations, Dominic Pettman and Eugene Thacker explore some of the key ⠜negative affects⠝ ⠓ both eternal and emergent ⠓ associated with climate change, environmental destruction, and cosmic solitude. In so doing they unearth something so obvious that it has gone largely unnoticed: the question of how we should feel about climate change. Between the information gathered by planetary sensors and the simple act of breathing the air, new unsettling moods are produced for which we currently lack an adequate language. Should we feel grief over the loss of our planet? Or is the strange feeling of witnessing mass extinction an indicator that the planet was never ⠜ours⠝ to begin with? Sad Planets explores this relationship between our all-too-human melancholia and a more impersonal sorrow, nestled in the heart of the cosmic elements. Spanning a wide range of topics ⠓ from the history of cosmology to the ⠜existential threat⠝ of climate change ⠓ this book is a reckoning with the limits of human existence and comprehension. As Pettman and Thacker observe, never before have we known so much about the planet and the cosmos, and yet never before have we felt so estranged from that same planet, to say nothing of the stars beyond.
