Karel Berka Libri

Karel Berka's treatise on measurement delves into the intricate relationship between qualitative and quantitative concepts in the sciences. Drawing from his extensive background in logic, mathematics, and both physical and social sciences, Berka critiques and analyzes the works of notable figures like Helmholtz and Bridgman. He tackles enduring challenges in the field, such as transitioning from classification to metrics and the quest to quantify qualitative ideas, all while addressing the philosophical implications of measurement.

Since it appeared in 1971, John Rawls's A Theory of Justice has become a classic. The author has now revised the original edition to clear up a number of difficulties he and others have found in the original book. Rawls aims to express an essential part of the common core of the democratic tradition--justice as fairness--and to provide an alternative to utilitarianism, which had dominated the Anglo-Saxon tradition of political thought since the nineteenth century. Rawls substitutes the ideal of the social contract as a more satisfactory account of the basic rights and liberties of citizens as free and equal persons. "Each person," writes Rawls, "possesses an inviolability founded on justice that even the welfare of society as a whole cannot override." Advancing the ideas of Rousseau, Kant, Emerson, and Lincoln, Rawls's theory is as powerful today as it was when first published.
