In Natural Communication kritisiert der Autor das derzeitige Paradigma der Komplexitätswissenschaften, die Ziele immer spezifisch in den Blick nimmt. Er schlägt eine Alternative vor, die eine grundlegende Architektur der Kommunikation vorstellt. Sein Modell der "natürlichen Kommunikation" schließt moderne theoretische Konzepte aus Mathematik und Physik mit ein, insbesondere der Kategorietheorie und der Quantenmechanik. Er abstrahiert daraus präzise Grundbegriffe, die zu einer terminologischen Basis dieser Theorie führen und die Möglichkeit eröffnen, mit Komplexität neu umzugehen. Der Autor ist davon überzeugt, dass es nur durch einen Blick in die Vergangenheit möglich ist, eine Kontinuität und Kohärenz in unserer gegenwärtigen Denkweise herzustellen, insbesondere in Bezug auf die Komplexität. In Natural Communication, the author criticizes the current paradigm of specific goal orientation in the complexity sciences and proposes an alternative that envisions a fundamental architectonics of communication. His model of "natural communication" encapsulates modern theoretical concepts from mathematics and physics, in particular category theory and quantum theory. From these fields it abstracts precise concepts such as to constitute a terminological basis for this theory which offers the opportunity to open up novel ways of thinking about complexity. The author is convinced that it is only possible to establish a continuity and coherence with contemporary thinking, especially with respect to complexity, through looking into the past.

The self-contained theory of certain singular coverings of toposes called complete spreads, that is presented in this volume, is a field of interest to topologists working in knot theory, as well as to various categorists. It extends the complete spreads in topology due to R. H. Fox (1957) but, unlike the classical theory, it emphasizes an unexpected connection with topos distributions in the sense of F. W. Lawvere (1983). The constructions, though often motivated by classical theories, are sometimes quite different from them. Special classes of distributions and of complete spreads, inspired respectively by functional analysis and topology, are studied. Among the former are the probability distributions; the branched coverings are singled out amongst the latter. This volume may also be used as a textbook for an advanced one-year graduate course introducing topos theory with an emphasis on geometric applications. Throughout the authors emphasize open problems. Several routine proofs are left as exercises, but also as ‘exercises’ the reader will find open questions for possible future work in a variety of topics in mathematics that can profit from a categorical approach.

Professionals in het sociale domein werken met verschillende mensen die allerlei identiteiten in zichzelf dragen. Het gaat hierbij onder andere om sociale, culturele, religieuze, etnische en genderverschillen. Diversiteit in de samenleving biedt de (aankomende) professional inzicht in belangrijke concepten, methoden en (sociologische) theorieën voor het succesvol uitoefenen van de eigen professie in de 21ste eeuw in Nederland en België.In dit boek wordt er betekenis gegeven aan begrippen zoals diversiteit, inclusie, gelijkwaardigheid en participatie. Auteurs belichten onder meer intersectionaliteit en de presentiebenadering en behandelen diversiteitscompetenties en diversiteitsbewuste communicatie. Ten slotte laten zij zien welke thema's actueel zijn in deze diverse samenleving, denk hierbij aan ongelijkheid, armoede, fysieke en geestelijke mogelijkheden, levensbeschouwingen, gender en seksuele geaardheid ? en hoe deze thema?s de beroepspraktijk beïnvloeden. Verder wordt de rol van de media belicht en wordt er ingegaan op racisme en systemische uitsluiting.1. Het boek neemt intersectioneel denken als uitgangspunt om de verschillende aspecten van diversiteit te belichten. Zo krijgen de concepten in Deel I een verscherpte invalshoek.2. Alle hoofdstukken van Deel II aspecten van diversiteit krijgen een vaste structuur, waarin speciale aandacht is voor de geschiedenis en de specifieke uitsluitingsmechanismen.3. Het boek bevat drie nieuwe hoofdstukken: a. Mogelijkheden: Bodies & Minds (hoofdstuk 10) richt zich op de fysieke en geestelijke mogelijkheden van mensen, met aandacht voor de impact van validisme en disablism. b. Gender (hoofdstuk 11) besteedt aandacht aan de verhoudingen tussen man en vrouw in de maatschappij. c. Kleur bekennen (hoofdstuk 13) legt de focus op ons koloniale verleden en de huidige vormen van racisme en discriminatie.4. De hoofdstukken Migratie en Media en beeldvorming zijn herzien, met nieuw materiaal en speciale aandacht voor de belevenis vanuit het perspectief van minderheden. Tot slot is er een gloednieuwe website waarin nieuw aanvullend materiaal, zoals casuïstiek en beeldmateriaal per hoofdstuk, te vinden is.https://www.managementboek.nl/boek/9789023260028/diversiteit-in-de-samenleving-lucho-rubio-reparaz

Ars Topica is the first full-length study of the nature and development of topoi, the conceptual ancestors of modern argument schemes, between Aristotle and Cicero. Aristotle and Cicero configured topoi in a way that influenced the subsequent tradition. Their work on the topos-system grew out of an interest in creating a theory of argumentation which could stand between the rigour of formal logic and the emotive potential of rhetoric. This system went through a series of developments and transformations resulting from the interplay between the separate aims of gaining rhetorical effectiveness and of maintaining dialectical standards. Ars Topica presents a comprehensive treatment of Aristotle’s and Cicero’s methods of topoi and, by exploring their relationship, it illuminates an area of ancient rhetoric and logic which has been obscured for more than two thousand years. Through an interpretation which is philologically rooted in the historical context of topoi, the book lays the ground for evaluating the relevance of the classical approaches to modern research on arguments, and at the same time provides an introduction to Greek and Roman theory of argumentation focussed on its most important theoretical achievements.
