The sixtieth anniversary edition of Frantz Fanon's landmark text,
now with a new introduction by Cornel WestFirst published in 1961,
and reissued in this sixtieth anniversary edition with a powerful
new introduction by Cornel West, Frantz Fanon's The Wretched of the
Earth is a masterfuland timeless interrogation of race,
colonialism, psychological trauma, and revolutionary struggle, and
a continuing influence on movements from Black Lives Matter to
decolonization. A landmark text for revolutionaries and activists,
The Wretched of the Earth is an eternal touchstone for civil
rights, anti-colonialism, psychiatric studies, and Black
consciousness movements around the world. Alongside Cornel West's
introduction, the book features critical essays by Jean-Paul Sartre
and Homi K. Bhabha. This sixtieth anniversary edition of Fanon's
most famous text stands proudly alongside such pillars of
anti-colonialism and anti-racism as Edward Said's Orientalism and
The Autobiography of Malcolm X.
'May you live in interesting times' was made famous by Sir Austen
Chamberlain. The premise is that 'interesting times' are times of
upheaval, conflict and insecurity - troubled times. With the
growing numbers of displaced populations and the rise in the
politics of fear and hate, we are facing challenges to our very
'species-being'. Papers in the volume include ethnographic studies
on the 'refugee crisis', the 'financial crisis' and the 'rule of
law crisis' in the Mediterranean as well as the crisis of violence
and hunger in South America.
Over the last century, the industrialization of agriculture and
processing technologies have made food abundant and relatively
inexpensive for much of the world's population. Simultaneously,
pesticides, nitrates, and other technological innovations intended
to improve the food supply's productivity and safety have generated
new, often poorly understood risks for consumers and the
environment. From the proliferation of synthetic additives to the
threat posed by antibiotic-resistant bacteria, the chapters in Risk
on the Table zero in on key historical cases in North America and
Europe that illuminate the history of food safety, highlighting the
powerful tensions that exists among scientific understandings of
risk, policymakers' decisions, and cultural notions of "pure" food.
This study considers the key strategic issues of the management of
customer relationships in international industrial marketing. It is
based on extensive original research by the International Marketing
and Purchase Group. The book reports on that research, in
particular pointing out the differences in approach by different
national groups in Europe.

No matter how long I may look at an image, I shall never find
anything in it but what I put there. It is in this fact that we
find the distinction between an image and a perception.' -
Jean-Paul Sartre"
L Imagination" was published in 1936 when Jean-Paul Sartre was
thirty years old. Long out of print, this is the first English
translation in many years. "The Imagination" is Sartre s first full
philosophical work, presenting some of the basic arguments
concerning phenomenology, consciousness and intentionality that
were to later appear in his master works and be so influential in
the course of twentieth-century philosophy.
Sartre begins by criticising philosophical theories of the
imagination, particularly those of Descartes, Leibniz and Hume,
before establishing his central thesis. Imagination does not
involve the perception of mental images in any literal sense,
Sartre argues, yet reveals some of the fundamental capacities of
consciousness. He then reviews psychological theories of the
imagination, including a fascinating discussion of the work of
Henri Bergson. Sartre argues that the classical conception is
fundamentally flawed because it begins by conceiving of the
imagination as being like perception and then seeks, in vain, to
re-establish the difference between the two. Sartre concludes with
an important chapter on Husserl s theory of the imagination which,
despite sharing the flaws of earlier approaches, signals a new
phenomenological way forward in understanding the imagination.
"The Imagination" is essential reading for anyone interested in
the philosophy of Jean-Paul Sartre, phenomenology, and the history
of twentieth-century philosophy.
This new translation includes a helpful historical and
philosophical introduction by Kenneth Williford and David Rudrauf.
Also included is Maurice Merleau-Ponty s important review of "L
Imagination "upon its publication in French in 1936.
Translated by Kenneth Williford and David Rudrauf.
Why is a horse called a horse and not a giraffe or a flapdoodle?
Why did Plato go from being called Aristocles, after his
grandfather, to being called Plato, which means muscleman? Where do
any names come from? In this delightful book, readers young and old
will explore with Plato and ponder why anything or anyone has a
name at all. Do readers know where their own name comes from? At
its most basic, philosophy is about learning how to think about the
world around us. It should come as no surprise, then, that children
make excellent philosophers! Naturally inquisitive, pint-size
scholars need little prompting before being willing to consider
life's "big questions," however strange or impractical. Plato &
Co. introduces children-and curious grown-ups-to the lives and work
of famous philosophers, from Descartes to Socrates, Einstein,
Plato, and Wittgenstein. Each book in the series features an
engaging-and often funny-story that presents basic tenets of
philosophical thought alongside vibrant color illustrations.
