Titre : Adaptive intelligence : surviving and thriving in times of uncertainty Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Robert Jeffrey Sternberg, Auteur Editeur : Cambridge : Cambridge university press Importance : 1 vol. (X-271 p.) Format : 23 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-316-60797-8 Note générale : Bibliogr. en fin de chapitres. Index Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Intelligence Adaptation (psychologie) Bien commun Index. décimale : 153.9 Résumé : Adaptive Intelligence is a dramatic reappraisal and reframing of the concept of human intelligence. In a sweeping analysis, Robert J. Sternberg argues that we are using a fatally-flawed, outdated conception of intelligence; one which may promote technological advancement, but which has also accelerated climate change, pollution, the use of weaponry, and inequality. Instead of focusing on the narrow academic skills measured by standardized tests, societies should teach and assess adaptive intelligence, defined as the use of collective talent in service of the common good. This book describes why the outdated notion of intelligence persists, what adaptive intelligence is, and how it could lead humankind on a more positive path--from publisher's website Adaptive intelligence : surviving and thriving in times of uncertainty [texte imprimé] / Robert Jeffrey Sternberg, Auteur . - Cambridge : Cambridge university press, [s.d.] . - 1 vol.

Titre : Beyond the Anthropological Difference Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Matthew Calarco, Auteur Editeur : Cambridge : Cambridge university press Collection : Elements in Environmental Humanities Importance : 1 volume (52 p.) Format : 23 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-108-79737-5 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : - Human beings-Animal nature - Philosophical anthropology - Distinction (Philosophy) Résumé : The aim of this Element is to provide a novel framework for gaining a critical grasp on the present situation concerning animals. It offers reflections on resisting the established order as well as suggestions on what forms alternative, pro-animal ways of life might take. The central argument of the book is that the search for an anthropological difference - that is, for a marker of human uniqueness determined by way of a sharp human/animal distinction - should be set aside. In place of this traditional way of differentiating human beings from animals, the author sketches an alternative way of thinking and living in relation to animals based on indistinction, a concept that points toward the unexpected and profound ways in which human beings share in animal life, death, and potentiality. The implications of this approach are then examined in view of practical and theoretical discussions in the environmental humanities and related fields.

Titre : Body image and eating disorders : an anthropological and psychological overview Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Fabio Gabrielli, Auteur ; Floriana Irtelli, Auteur Editeur : Cambridge : Cambridge university press Année de publication : 2022 Importance : 1 vol. (VIII-168 p.) Format : 23 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-00-907803-0 Note générale : Bibliogr. p. 150-165. Index Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Image du corps Troubles du comportement alimentaire Psychanalyse et culture Index. décimale : 306.4 Résumé : "One of the paradoxes of our current era is that only 10% of obese or overweight people are actually dieting, whereas nearly 20% of the remaining population are trying to lose weight, even if they do not need to. This volume looks into our contemporary relationship with food by inserting current body image and eating disorders, like orthorexia and bigorexia, into a broader, historical overview. Gabrielli and Irtelli combine their knowledge of psychoanalysis and anthropology with scientific research and clinical experience to create this truly interdisciplinary work. Their study uses psychoanalytical theories about our 'hyper-modern' times to trace the impact that mass media has on individuals, families and societies. It explores various 'food tribes' and exposes the contradictions of today's mass media that advertise fitness and dieting alongside increasingly tastier and accessible foods. The work helps us to understand our highly social relationship with our bodies and what we eat."
