› Find signed collectible books: 'Africa since 1940 : The Past of the Present'
Frederick Cooper's latest book on the history of decolonization and independence in Africa helps students understand the historical process from which Africa's current position in the world has emerged. Bridging the divide between colonial and post-colonial history, it shows what political independence did and did not signify and how men and women, peasants and workers, religious leaders and local leaders sought to refashion the way they lived, worked, and interacted with each other.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Anthropology from a Pragmatic Point of View'
Anthropology from a Pragmatic Point of View essentially reflects the last lectures Kant gave for his annual course in anthropology, which he taught from 1772 until his retirement in 1796. The lectures were published in 1798, with the largest first printing of any of Kant's works. Intended for a broad audience, they reveal not only Kant's unique contribution to the newly emerging discipline of anthropology, but also his desire to offer students a practical view of the world and of humanity's place in it. With its focus on what the human being 'as a free-acting being makes of himself or can and should make of himself,' the Anthropology also offers readers an application of some central elements of Kant's philosophy. This volume offers a new annotated translation of the text by Robert B. Louden, together with an introduction by Manfred Kuehn that explores the context and themes of the lectures. [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Friedrich Nietzsche: On the Genealogy of Morality'
Friedrich Nietzsche is one of the most influential thinkers of the past 150 years and On the Genealogy of Morality (1887) is his most important work on ethics and politics. A polemical contribution to moral and political theory, it offers a critique of moral values and traces the historical evolution of concepts such as guilt, conscience, responsibility, law and justice. This is a revised and updated 2006 edition of one of the most successful volumes to appear in Cambridge Texts in the History of Political Thought. Keith Ansell-Pearson modified his introduction to Nietzsche's classic text, and Carol Diethe incorporated a number of changes to the translation itself, reflecting the considerable advances in our understanding of Nietzsche. In this guise the Cambridge Texts edition of Nietzsche's Genealogy should continue to enjoy widespread adoption, at both undergraduate and graduate level. [via]

Famous in his time as a painter, prankster, and philosopher, Leonardo da Vinci was also a musician, sculptor, and engineer for dukes, popes, and kings. What remains of his work-from futuristic designs and scientific inquiry to artwork of ethereal beauty-reveals the ambitious, unpredictable brilliance of a visionary, and a timeless dreamer.
Robert Byrd celebrates this passionate, playful genius in a glowing picture book replete with the richness and imagination of Leonardo's own notebooks. Twenty lavish spreads, including side drawings, supplemental texts, and quotes from Leonardo's writings, highlight distinct periods and make the master's art, jokes, explorations, and inventions wonderfully vivid and accessible. A striking tribute to an irrepressible mind and to the potential within all who are curious.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Misty of Chincoteague'
On an island off the coasts of Virginia and Maryland lives a centuries-old band of wild ponies. Among them is the most mysterious of all, Phantom, a rarely seen mare that eludes all efforts to capture her--that is, until a young boy and girl lay eyes on her and determine that they can't live without her. The frenzied roundup that follows on the next "Pony Penning Day" does indeed bring Phantom into their lives, in a way they never would have suspected. Phantom would forever be a creature of the wild. But her gentle, loyal colt Misty is another story altogether.
Marguerite Henry's Newbery Honor Book has captivated generations of boys and girls both with its thrilling descriptions of true incidents from the tiny island of Chincoteague, and its realistic yet wonderfully magical atmosphere. This story of an animal brought into captivity poignantly reveals the powerful opposing forces of humans and nature. Wesley Dennis's pen-and-ink ponies are masterfully depicted with rippling muscles, shaggy coats, and free spirits. (Ages 9 to 12) --Emilie Coulter [via]

Although Kantian autonomy is often considered independent of time and place, J.B. Schneewind's landmark study, The Invention of Autonomy, has shown that much can be learned by analyzing Kant's moral philosophy in the context of the history of modern moral philosophy. Distinguished contributors accordingly relate Kant's work to the historical context of his predecessors (as well as the empirical context of human agency) in this valuable resource for professionals and advanced students.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Practical Rules: When We Need Them and When We Don't'
Rules are all around us. They come in all shapes and sizes: legislative, bureaucratic, administrative, ethical, and religious. We break the rules now and then, but mostly we follow them. "But why?" asks Alan H. Goldman in Practical Rules. He then sets out to clarify why we have rules and why we're sometimes justified in ignoring them. In doing so, he mediates between two extremes, the "particularists," who recognize rules only with respect to circumstances, and genuine rule defenders, like the moral "prescriptivist" R.M. Hare.
Goldman is not just a theoretician concerned with giving an abstract description of rule making and breaking; because he is heavily invested in the everyday consequences of rules, Practical Rules will interest many nonphilosophers. In particular, he devotes nearly a quarter of the book to legal rules and illustrates his arguments with constitutional questions and ethical disagreements that broaden the book's appeal. At the same time he engages today's main thinkers on rules, including Robert Nozick, Ronald Dworkin, and John Rawls, who add depth and nuance to the arguments. --Eric de Place [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'The Sonnets'
In his own time, Shakespeare was best known to the reading public as a poet, and even today copies of his Sonnets regularly outsell everything else he wrote. For this edition, Stephen Orgel offers a warmly personal and original introduction to Shakespeare's best-loved and most widely read poems. Careful readings emphasize their sexual and temperamental ambiguity, their textual history and the special perils an editor faces when modernizing the original quarto's spelling, punctuation, and even layout. The edition retains the text of the Sonnets prepared by Gwynne Evans, together with his detailed notes on each, and a line-by-line commentary. Throughout, the 'voices' of the sonnets appear in all their intricacy and dramatic power. [via]
