The present book is the first to undertake a systematic study of Peirce’s
conception of historical knowledge and of its value for philosophy. It does
so by both reconstructing in detail Peirce’s arguments and giving a
detailed account of the many ways in which history becomes an object of
explicit reflection in his writings.
The book’s leading idea may be stated as follows: Peirce manages to put
together an exceptionally compelling argument about history’s bearing on
philosophy not so much because he derives it from a well-articulated and
polished conception of the relation between the two disciplines; but on
the contrary, because he holds on to this relation while intuiting that it
can easily turn into a conflict. This potential conflict acts therefore as a
spur to put forth an unusually profound and multi-faceted analysis of
what it means for philosophy to rely on historical arguments.
Peirce looks at history as a way to render philosophical investigations
more detailed, more concrete and more sensitive to the infinite and
unforeseeable nuances that characterize human experience. In this way,
he provides us with an exceptionally valuable contribution to a question
that has remained gravely under-theorized in contemporary debates.

Books would seem to be one thing, and rough business another--except that the life of Tullio Pironti has brought both together. This mover and shaker in Italian arts and publishing began as a scuffling street kid in Naples, then enjoyed a boxing career that included two trips to the nationals, and only after that entered the book business. Yet in the decades that followed, he ended up working with the likes of the Nobel Prize-winner Naguib Mahfuz and the Maestro of Italian film, Federico Fellini. Not surprisingly, then, Pironti\u2019s memoir won wide attention in his home country, with more than 100 notices. Red Hen Press is excited to bring it out now in an American edition.
Before anything else, the young Pironti had to survive a war. His memoir begins with a refugee experience, as he and his family are driven out of their homes in downtown Naples by the American bombing of 1942-43. Then after the liberation, Pironti must make his way with his wits and his fists, amid a colorful array of Neapolitan street figures. His recollections of youth provide rare insight into coming of age in a culture so ancient, so full of secrets.
Then once Pironti quits his boxing career, the real fight begins. His rise as editor and publisher presents the Italian version of up by the bootstraps--during a period of near-Biblical changes for the country. In the arena of the arts, Pironti experiences those changes first-hand. As he improvises his way onto the best-seller lists and into the film industry, his work makes a larger and larger place for women, and for books by Arabs and Africans. Then too, many of his publications boldly expose the destructive collusion between the Mafia and the politicians in Rome. At the memoir\u2019s climax, Pironti himself suffers for his expos\u00e9s. He faces trumped-up charges from some of the most powerful forces in Italy, and finds out just how gratifyingly broad his support is, across native city.
Anyone who wants to know the real Italy, and what it\u2019s been through over the last half-century, will find Books & Rough Business a source of endless fascination. On top of that, this autobiography offers the timeless pleasures of watching a wily player work his way from next to nothing to great success, overcoming just about every kind of adversity along the way.

Описание: One day, an athlete goes to play their sport, whether it is baseball, softball, football, tennis, ping pong, golf, bowling, volleyball, soccer, hockey, frisbee, horseshoes, or other sports, and then, another day, out of the blue, for no clear reason, the athlete can no longer perform their basic athletic action even though they have been routinely doing it for years. Their fine motor skills are gone. This is due to an enigmatic condition known as The Yips. It seems to mostly affect athletes who are in their prime. The medical community lacks understanding of it, and there is not much that can be done. As a result, an athlete may be forced to abandon their sport. This book takes an in-depth look into the yips condition and attempts to make some sense out of it. Keith Siragusa shares his story of how the yips caused him to struggle in tennis. He abandoned his college tennis team and had many difficulties on the tennis court, thereafter.
