Each entry includes a discussion of the person's life, work and ideas as well as the historical context and an analysis of his or her lasting contributions. Thinkers include: Aristotle Samuel Johnson Friedrich Max Muller Ferdinand de Saussure Joseph H. Greenberg Noam Chomsky Fully cross-referenced and with useful guides to further reading, this is an ideal introduction to the thinkers who have had a significant impact on the subject of Language and Linguistics.

This bold challenge to conventional notions about medieval music disputes the assumption of pure literacy and replaces it with a more complex picture of a world in which literacy and orality interacted. Asking such fundamental questions as how singers managed to memorize such an enormous amount of music and how music composed in the mind rather than in writing affected musical style, Anna Maria Busse Berger explores the impact of the art of memory on the composition and transmission of medieval music. Her fresh, innovative study shows that although writing allowed composers to work out pieces in the mind, it did not make memorization redundant but allowed for new ways to commit material to memory. Since some of the polyphonic music from the twelfth century and later was written down, scholars have long assumed that it was all composed and transmitted in written form. Our understanding of medieval music has been profoundly shaped by German philologists from the beginning of the last century who approached medieval music as if it were no different from music of the nineteenth century. But Medieval Music and the Art of Memory deftly demonstrates that the fact that a piece was written down does not necessarily mean that it was conceived and transmitted in writing. Busse Berger's new model, one that emphasizes the interplay of literate and oral composition and transmission, deepens and enriches current understandings of medieval music and opens the field for fresh interpretations.

李格尔在其不长的学术生涯中，致力于艺术科学的理论探索，卓有的建树，被当代西方艺术史学泰斗贡布里希誉为“我们学科中最富于独创性的思想家”。李格尔改变了19世纪的艺术史写作方式，他的每一部著作都为艺术中史打开了一个新的领域，被公认为是现代艺术史学史上的里程碑。以他的三本名著《风格问题》、《罗马晚期的工艺美术》和《荷兰团体肖像画》为线索，评述其主要学术思想以及与西方学术传统的联系，概括了他的理论在作为一门独立学科的艺术史的建立过程中的积极意义，并对他的著名的“艺术意志”的概念作了初步的批判。

“神学”发端于12—13世纪人们探索宇宙奥秘的乐趣，本是为超自然知识领域保留的术语。但在16—17世纪，大量自然哲学家和世俗人对神学经典论题的讨论，使得科学与神学以全新的方式结合在一种话语模式中，“神学关切以世俗化的术语表达，而科学的关切则以神学术语表达。神学与其他科学几乎成为同一个领域”。由此形成了一种看待神圣事物的独特方式，即“世俗神学”。后者虽然只短暂存在了一个世纪，却产生了深远的影响。
《神学与科学的想象》是犹太思想史家阿摩斯·冯肯斯坦一生阅读与思考的结晶。全书细致考察了早期现代科学理念在中世纪的形而上学基础，讨论16—17世纪的“世俗神学”对后世科学、社会学与历史观念的影响。作者以独到的问题意识和视角，将人们耳熟能详的各个思想史片段整合为一幅全面的思想史图景。

Studies of mechanisms in the brain that allow complicated things to happen in a coordinated fashion have produced some of the most spectacular discoveries in neuroscience. This book provides eloquent support for the idea that spontaneous neuron activity, far from being mere noise, is actually the source of our cognitive abilities. It takes a fresh look at the co-evolution of structure and function in the mammalian brain, illustrating how self-emerged oscillatory timing is the brains fundamental organiser of neuronal information. The small world-like connectivity of the cerebral cortex allows for global computation on multiple spatial and temporal scales. The perpetual interactions among the multiple network oscillators keep cortical systems in a highly sensitive metastable state and provide energy-efficient synchronising mechanisms via weak links. In a sequence of cycles, Gyorgy Buzsaki guides the reader from the physics of oscillations through neuronal assembly organisation to complex cognitive processing and memory storage. His clear, fluid writing accessible to any reader with some scientific knowledge is supplemented by extensive footnotes and references that make it just as gratifying and instructive a read for the specialist. The coherent view of a single author who has been at the forefront of research in this exciting field, this volume is essential reading for anyone interested in our rapidly evolving understanding of the brain.

英语和德语世界从来都不缺少歌德的传记，但萨弗兰斯基的这本《歌德传》所描写的是一个全新的歌德，评论称，当代文坛还没有一位作者能够收集如此丰富的传记写作材料，也没有一位作者的作品能够获得如此多的评论与阐释。 萨弗兰斯基通过歌德的著作、信件、日记、对话以及同时代人士对其的评价，试图全面贴近歌德，呈现出一个前所未有的生动的形象。这部传记将引导我们穿越时空，回到轻快的洛可可时代和刻板的蒸汽时代，这段时间作为一个整体被称之为“歌德时代”。

本书以一个具体概念在公元1-2世纪这个时段的复杂演变为主轴，由此引出马克安（Marcion c. 85 – c. 160）独特的思想贡献，而马克安的再发现或者说对马克安的这样一种新颖解读又深化了我们对早期西方思想史的理解，进而对西方学界普遍接受的一些观点提出质疑。作者以提问的方式引导我们重新思考经典的成书过程并进一步反思与此相关的一些正统观念得以确立的缘由。各章的叙述兼顾文本与思想史两方面的内容，作者以娴熟的笔法将细腻的文本分析与宏阔的思想史考察糅合在一起，让我们看到马克安这个人物及其思想在纵向的历史演进与横向的学派竞争论辩当中所扮演的多重角色

Book Description
Describes the theoretical background behind Statistical Parametric Mapping and provides operational guidelines and technical details on data analysis.
Product Description
In an age where the amount of data collected from brain imaging is increasing constantly, it is of critical importance to analyse those data within an accepted framework to ensure proper integration and comparison of the information collected. This book describes the ideas and procedures that underlie the analysis of signals produced by the brain. The aim is to understand how the brain works, in terms of its functional architecture and dynamics. This book provides the background and methodology for the analysis of all types of brain imaging data, from functional magnetic resonance imaging to magnetoencephalography. Critically, Statistical Parametric Mapping provides a widely accepted conceptual framework which allows treatment of all these different modalities. This rests on an understanding of the brain's functional anatomy and the way that measured signals are caused experimentally. The book takes the reader from the basic concepts underlying the analysis of neuroimaging data to cutting edge approaches that would be difficult to find in any other source. Critically, the material is presented in an incremental way so that the reader can understand the precedents for each new development. This book will be particularly useful to neuroscientists engaged in any form of brain mapping; who have to contend with the real-world problems of data analysis and understanding the techniques they are using. It is primarily a scientific treatment and a didactic introduction to the analysis of brain imaging data. It can be used as both a textbook for students and scientists starting to use the techniques, as well as a reference for practicing neuroscientists. The book also serves as a companion to the software packages that have been developed for brain imaging data analysis.
* An essential reference and companion for users of the SPM software
* Provides a complete description of the concepts and procedures entailed by the analysis of brain images
* Offers full didactic treatment of the basic mathematics behind the analysis of brain imaging data
* Stands as a compendium of all the advances in neuroimaging data analysis over the past decade
* Adopts an easy to understand and incremental approach that takes the reader from basic statistics to state of the art approaches such as Variational Bayes
* Structured treatment of data analysis issues that links different modalities and models
* Includes a series of appendices and tutorial-style chapters that makes even the most sophisticated approaches accessible

佛教文献与佛教文学，ISBN：9787802544215，作者：冯国栋 著 朗宇法师，清修法师 编

本书是德国哲学家、新康德主义者(马堡学派)保罗·纳托尔普的代表作之一。作者基于德国观念论立场，尤其基于马堡学派的新康德主义立场，对柏拉图的理念学说进行了重新理解和解读，并批判了亚里士多德对柏拉图“理念”的理解。本书是柏拉图思想研究和诠释的里程碑式的著作，海德格尔在1925年就指出：“该书已经决定性地规定了最近二十年的柏拉图研究”。 全书除了两版前言之外，正文一共12章，外加一个“反批评附录”和对12章内容的补充说明。

本书接续了国内外学界十几年来对于“大分流”问题的关切和比较史学的研究路径，深潜入“大分流”发生前的几个世纪，探讨促成“大分流”现象的深层逻辑。与彭慕兰（Kenneth Pomeranz）的经典著作不同，本书主要从政治视角观察中国和欧洲经济变迁的进程，由此发现：政治制度和政权的空间规模是促成“大分流”*根本的原因，在“大分流”真正显现之前的几个世纪，差异的种子就已经深埋在中国和欧洲的政治架构之中了。本书以宏大的视野、前沿的社会科学理论，重新审视欧洲大陆两端近千年的历史进程，对诸如近代经济转型问题、中西历史比较问题、中国历史重新评估问题、制度史研究的视野与路径问题，都提供了极具洞察力的理论和实证研究。本书的两位作者此前分别致力于中国经济史研究和欧洲经济史研究，他们的合作也说明：历史学家与经济学家，中国史学家与欧洲史学家并肩作战，能够写出一部坚实且耐看的经济史著作。

本书讨论现代性价值学说，主要是以功利主义和道义论为代表的现代公共伦理学，以及最新科技发展条件下它们的发展可能。特点是敏锐的问题意识和广阔的视野，以及原创性。从现代性与古典性范式、包括古典性范式在现代的代表如社群主义和新共和主义的对峙之中展开分析研究，注重文献支持，注重提出国内外领先的新观点。尤其是，本书关注以人工智能、神经科学、虚拟现实、基因工程等等为首的最新科技突破对人类价值领域的可能影响，关注最新历史变化的伦理学效应，在这个领域发出中国学者的声音。

1853年，沙皇尼古拉一世借宗教争端入侵今属罗马尼亚的多瑙河两公国。随后，摇摇欲坠而勉力维持其欧洲势力的奥斯曼帝国、担心俄国扩张的英国，以及想要重塑辉煌的法国皇帝拿破仑三世陆续对俄宣战。持续18个月的克里米亚战争造成了巨大的人员损失，并彻底改写了欧洲的政治格局，深刻影响了俄罗斯和土耳其的现代化进程。
费吉斯大量引用俄罗斯、法国、英国和奥斯曼帝国的文献资料，全面展现了民族主义情绪、帝国势力博弈和宗教冲突是如何影响各国介入战争的。从国王与大臣、报道战争的记者与作家，到战场上的军官与士兵、围城内的妇孺，费吉斯不仅从多个视角还原了战争的全景，也为今天理解19、20世纪的“东方问题”，黑海地区基督徒与穆斯林的关系，以及俄罗斯与西方的世界裂痕提供了新的入口。
费吉斯在伦敦、巴黎、伊斯坦布尔、莫斯科和圣彼得堡的尘封档案中仔细求索，揭露了政治家们的图谋，同时展示了战争造成的可怕人员伤亡……这本书追溯了许多现代冲突的根源。
——加里·巴斯，普林斯顿大学政治与国际事务教授
扎实的研究……内容丰富而吸引人……基于大量资料，从政府档案到新闻报道、到回忆录、到几乎不识字的士兵的家信，费吉斯出色地平衡了政治、军事和社会历史……关于战争本身的篇章如冒险小说一般激动人心……《克里米亚战争》是一场战争的集锦，一部学术的庆典。
——《波士顿环球报》
[费吉斯]在描述高层政客对普通人的影响方面展露了极其出色的天赋，清楚地呈现了引发战争的反常外交手段……这本书清晰易懂、文笔流畅、情节生动。最重要的是，它告诉我们为什么这场被忽视的冲突和为此殉难的人值得我们长久铭记。
——《独立报》
这部著作重要而让人印象深刻……俄罗斯的资料提供了鲜活的补充，在这方面费吉斯是一位大师。……《克里米亚战争》令人敬佩地描述了克里米亚战争中国际形势和宗教背景的重要意义。
——《纽约图书评论》

《战略-从思维到行动》将战略定义为企业在特定的环境中所确定的核心目标与达成这些目标的关键路径的独特组合。许多战略的失败，不是战略本身的错误，而是没有连续的、一致的行动来支撑，是战略与行动的脱节。所以，《战略-从思维到行动》一方面避免单纯介绍国外学者的研究，另一方面避免远离中国现实世界的抽象，以发现在目标指导之下的连续的、一致的、集中的行动作为《战略-从思维到行动》的逻辑重点。
作者认为：战略的选择和实施是平衡的艺术。通过阅读《战略-从思维到行动》，读者除了能够掌握制订企业战略的基本过程、基本方法和分析工具以外，还能够在以下几个方面达成平衡： 第一，在理性分析和商业直觉之间达成平衡; 第二，在前瞻性和实用性之间达成平衡; 第三，实现基本知识与次级知识的平衡; 第四，在具体与抽象之间寻求平衡.因此,与国内同类图书相比，《战略-从思维到行动》重在训练读者的战略思维能力，使读者能够掌握行之有效的战略制定方法。

在西方的基督教教义中指出人的七宗罪——贪食、色欲、贪婪、伤悲、暴怒、懒惰、傲慢，是人类性格的深渊面，而施克莱在本书中提出了“平常的恶”的概念，认为残酷、虚伪、傲慢、背叛和愤世嫉俗等，不过是浅滩暗礁，以充满活力和野蛮的方式成为人类性格的瑕疵。 施克莱从一批伟大的作家的作品 的解读——莫利哀和狄更斯的虚伪，简•奥斯汀的势利，莎士比亚和孟德斯鸠的愤世嫉俗，霍桑和尼采的残酷，康拉德和福克纳的背叛——揭示了恶的本质及其影响。她审视了它们的破坏性影响，及其对政府和公民的影响。
《平常的恶》是一本智慧、聪明、心思细腻的书，它讨论了各种个人之恶——残忍、虚伪、势利等——的危害与价值。施克莱教授探究了这些恶的重要性，哪些恶比其他恶更坏，它们可以为社会作出何种积极贡献，以及在不同社会中，这些恶的含义有何种差别。 ——伯纳德·威廉斯
