From inside dust jacket: Man's Lot fuses photography and poetry, scholarship and philosophy to present a vision of the human condition.... In "Life at the Limits," all of the color photographs are of people in India while the text deals largely with the West. The final chapters compare attitudes toward extreme situations in India and in the West. The second part, "Time Is an Artist," shows us time's artistry in nature as well as time's effects on human art, including patina, torsos, and ruins. It deals critically with multimillion-dollar restoration projects and shows how different attitudes toward time are related to our attitudes toward ourselves and the past, old age, and death, widows and witches. The social implications are developed, and the epilogue bears the title "Old is Beautiful." The last part, "What Is Man?," represents the culmination of the Trilogy. The text and pictures are meant to be lived with, and the whole book is intended for continued meditation and reflection....

Philosophic Classics: From Plato to Nietzsche

Routledge

This anthology of readings in contemporary Western philosophy focuses on Nineteenth-century philosophers who represent a variety of different responses to the issue of the day--i.e., whether or not there was a knowable, nonhuman rational order upon which thinking persons could willfully choose to act. Striking a balance between major and minor figures, it features the best available translations of texts--complete works or complete selections of works--which are both central to each philosopher's thought and are widely accepted as part of the “canon.” The selections are readable and accessible, while still being faithful to the original. Includes Introductions to each philosopher, and an abundance of drawings, diagrams, photographs, and a timeline. KEY TOPICS: Jeremy Bentham. Johann Gottlieb Fichte. G.W.F. Hegel. Arthur Schopenhauer. Auguste Comte. Ludwig Feuerbach. John Stuart Mill. Soren Kierkegaard. Karl Marx. Charles Sanders Peirce. William James. Friedrich Nietzsche. MARKET: For anyone interested in 19th-century Philosophy or Contemporary Philosophy.

PRENTICE/HALL

This book provides a description and preservation of Oriental notational systems, the study of which makes possible a deeper understanding of Eastern art music and demonstrates its character to the student more meaningfully than does the mere presentation of recordings and musical examples written in Western staff notation. The numerous problems arising from styles and techniques which are based upon improvisation and extramusical concepts are also considered. 
The purposes of this study will have been fulfilled if it serves as a stimulus toward further research in this fascinating, but, alas, quickly vanishing field. The presentation of Eastern notations may also provide some aesthetic pleasure from the study of unusual and often complex systems and symbols. ―from the Preface
