Im Zentrum dieses Bandes steht die Frage, wie unter Zugrundelegung der Evolutionstheorie Natur und Geist in ihrem Verhaltnis zueinander und in ihren verschiedenen Ausgestaltungen bestimmt werden konnen. Was leistet die evolutionare Forschungsperspektive beispielsweise zur Aufklarung humanspezifischer Charakteristika oder auch zur Entstehung und Bewertung von asthetischer Erfahrung und Vernunft? Einerseits treten vielfaltige geistig-kognitiven Fahigkeiten des Menschen schon im Tierreich in verschiedenen Vorformen und Variationen auf, so dass eine evolutionare Kontinuitat aufgrund so unterschiedlicher Disziplinen wie der Palaontologie, Molekulargenetik, den Neurowissenschaften oder der vergleichenden Primatenforschung immer besser belegt werden kann. Andererseits zeichnet sich bereits die naturliche Evolution durch die Hervorbringung vielfaltiger emergenter Entitaten und Eigenschaften aus, wie beispielsweise von Organismen und deren struktureller Kopplung mit der Umwelt, was bedeutet, dass sowohl ihre durch Selbst- und Fremdbezuglichkeit charakterisierten Strukturen als auch ihr Verhalten durch eine spezifische Form von qualitative Neuheit gepragt sind.

The author emphasises the overall complexity of cross-border M&A transactions into Poland, linking the proper M&A transaction with the sensitive privatisation process and the specific political, economic and cultural background of Poland.

Time and Body promotes the application of phenomenological psychopathology and embodied research to a broad spectrum of mental disorders. In a new and practical way, it integrates the latest research on the temporal and intersubjective constitution of the body, self and its mental disorders from phenomenological, embodied and interdisciplinary research perspectives. The authors investigate how temporal processes apply to the contribution of embodiment and selfhood, as well as to their destabilization, such as in eating disorders and borderline personality disorders, schizophrenia, depression, social anxiety or dementia. The chapters demonstrate the applicability of phenomenological psychopathology to a range of illnesses and its relevance to treatment and clinical practice.

Kant, Fichte, and the Legacy of Transcendental Idealism contains ten new essays by leading and rising scholars from the United States, Europe, and Asia who explore the historical development and conceptual contours of Kantian and post-Kantian philosophy. The collection begins with a set of comparative essays centered on Kant's transcendental idealism, placing special stress on the essentials of Kant's moral theory, the metaphysical outlook bound up with it, and the conception of the legitimate role of religion supported by it. The spotlight then shifts to the post-Kantian period, in a series of essays exploring a variety of angles on Fichte's pivotal role: his uncompromising constructivism, his overarching conception of the philosophical project, and his radical accounts of the nature of reason and the constitution of meaning. In the remaining essays, the focus falls on German idealism after Fichte, with particular attention to Jacobi's critique of idealism as "nihilism," Schelling's development of an idealistic philosophy of nature, and Hegel's development of an all-encompassing idealistic "science of logic." The collection, edited by Halla Kim and Steven Hoeltzel, will be of great value to scholars interested in Kant, Fichte, German idealism, post-Kantian philosophy, European philosophy, or the history of ideas.
