Joshua Greene

Våra hjärnor är utformade för att leva i små stammar, att komma överens med en utvald grupp (vi) och att hålla alla andra (dem) borta. Men det moderna samhället har fått världens folk att leva på gemensamma områden, vilket har skapat fantastiska möjligheter och omfattande kulturkrockar. Världen blir allt mindre och de moraliska gränser som skiljer oss åt blir allt tydligare och mer förbryllande. Vi bråkar om allt från skattesatser till homosexuella äktenskap och global uppvärmning, och måste ta reda på om och var vi kan hitta en gemensam värdegrund. Vi och dom flätar samman neurovetenskap, psykologi och filosofi som belyser de underliggande orsakerna till moderna konflikter och visar vägen framåt. Joshua Greene kombinerar insikterna från sin bakgrund inom experimentell moralfilosofi med det vi har lärt oss av samhällsvetenskap och ställer den centrala frågan: Hur kan Vi samsas med Dem när det De vill känns så främmande för Oss? Vi och dom kommer att förändra hur du ser på hur moraliskt tänkande fungerar och få dig att inse hur bristfällig vår förmåga att fatta beslut är.

Vi och dom

"Milton H. Greene (1922-1985), famous for his fashion photography and celebrity portraits from the golden age of Hollywood, met Marilyn Monroe on a photo shoot for Look magazine in 1953. The pair developed an instant rapport, quickly becoming close friends and ultimately business partners.Greene passed in 1985, thinking his life's work was succumbing to the ravages of time. His eldest son, Joshua, began a journey to meticulously restore his father's legacy. After spending nearly two decades restoring his father's archive, Joshua Greene and his company are widely regarded as one of the leaders in photographic restoration and have been at the forefront of the digital imaging and large-format printing revolution. Now Joshua Greene, in conjunction with Iconic Images, presents 'The Essential Marilyn Monroe, Milton H. Greene: 50 Sessions'. With 280 photographs, including many never-before published and unseen images, newly scanned and restored classics, as well as images that have appeared only once in publication, Greene's Marilyn Monroe archive can finally be viewed as it was originally intended when these pictures were first produced more than 60 years ago. These classic sessions - 50 in all - cover Monroe at the height of her astonishing beauty and meteoric fame. From film-sets to the bedroom, at home and at play, Joshua has curated a lasting tribute to the work of a great photographer and his greatest muse"--Publisher's description.

50 Sessions

The Essential Marilyn Monroe

Fanya Gottesfeld Heller

"I peered out the second-floor window of my grandparents' villa. Through an early morning haze I saw men in German uniforms jumping off trucks. The Germans were carrying rifles and kicking in the doors of houses up and down the main street. Some of the men restrained big barking dogs on leashes. I heard people screaming and watched as men, women, and children scattered in all directions . . ." Fanya and her family run to their secret hiding place. But even if they survive this Nazi search, there will be others. How long can they survive? You will never forget Fanya's incredible story of courage and survival and she recounts the true story of how she survived the Holocaust.

A True Story of the Holocaust

Hidden

A ground-breaking and ambitious book that promotes a new understanding of morality, one that will help us to solve society's biggest problems. Our brains were designed for tribal life, for getting along with a select group of others (Us), and for fighting off everyone else (Them). But modern life has thrust the world's tribes into a shared space, creating conflicts of interest and clashes of values, along with unprecedented opportunities. As the world shrinks, the moral lines that divide us become more salient and more puzzling. We fight over everything from tax codes to gay marriage to global warming, and we wonder where, if at all, we can find our common ground. A grand synthesis of neuroscience, psychology, and philosophy, Moral Tribes reveals the underlying causes of modern conflict and lights a way forward. Our emotions make us social animals, turning Me into Us. But they also make us tribal animals, turning Us against Them. Our tribal emotions make us fight, sometimes with bombs, sometimes with words, and often with life-and-death stakes. Drawing inspiration from moral philosophy and cutting-edge science, Moral Tribes shows when we should trust our instincts, when we should reason, and how the right kind of reasoning can move us forward. Joshua Greene is the director of Harvard University's Moral Cognition Lab, a pioneering scientist, a philosopher, and an acclaimed teacher. The great challenge of Moral Tribes is this: How can we get along with Them when what they want feels so wrong? Finally, Greene offers a surprisingly simple set of maxims for navigating the modern moral terrain, a practical road map for solving problems and living better lives.
