    Introducing Ethics
    Platón
    • Otázkami, které směroval na své aténské současníky, je vedl k zamyšlení nad velkými tématy, která označujeme jako filozofická. V rozsáhlém Platonově díle můžeme nalézt jeho stanoviska k vědním oblastem jako je povaha vědění a reality, politika, etika, matematika, ekonomika a další. Komiksová kniha Platon čtenáři ukazuje, jak byl tento velký filozof ovlivněn myšlenkami Sokratovými či Pythagorovými, srozumitelně popisuje základní myšlenky platonismu a naznačuje, jak Platon ovlivnil současnou filozofii, např. moderní myslitele jako Karl Popper nebo Jacques Derrida.

      What are the acceptable limits of scientific investigation and genetic engineering, the rights and wrongs of animal rights, euthanasia and civil disobedience? This book confronts these dilemmas, tracing arguments of moral thinkers, including Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, and brings us up to date with postmodern critics.

      Introducing Ethics
    • The entire Who's Who of postmodern thought―Derrida, Foucault, Baudrillard, Lyotard and others, can trace their philosophical ancestry to Nietzsche's radical relativism.

      Ever wonder why Estonian animation features so many carrots or why cows often perform pyramids? Well, neither question is answered in Chris Robinson's new book, Estonian Animation. Robinson's frank, humorous, and thoroughly researched book traces the history of Estonia's acclaimed animation scene from early experiments in the 1930s to the creation of puppet (Nukufilm) and cel (Joonisfilm) animation studios during the Soviet era, as well as Estonia's surprising international success during the post-Soviet era. In addition, Robinson writes about the discovery of films by four 1960s animation pioneers who, until the release of this book, had been unknown to most Estonian and international animation historians.
