Veena Das,Michael D. Jackson,Arthur Kleinman,Bhrigupati Singh: The Ground Between: Anthropologists Engage Philosophy
Description
The guiding inspiration of this book is the attraction and distance that mark the relation between anthropology and philosophy. This theme is explored through encounters between individual anthropologists and particular regions of philosophy. Several of the most basic concepts of the discipline-including notions of ethics, politics, temporality, self and other, and the nature of human life-are products of a dialogue, both implicit and explicit, between anthropology and philosophy. These philosophical undercurrents in anthropology also speak to the question of what it is to experience our being in a world marked by radical difference and otherness. In The Ground Between, twelve leading anthropologists offer intimate reflections on the influence of particular philosophers on their way of seeing the world, and on what ethnography has taught them about philosophy. Ethnographies of the mundane and the everyday raise fundamental issues that the contributors grapple with in both their lives and their thinking.
With directness and honesty, they relate particular philosophers to matters such as how to respond to the suffering of the other, how concepts arise in the give and take of everyday life, and how to be attuned to the world through the senses. Their essays challenge the idea that philosophy is solely the province of professional philosophers, and suggest that certain modalities of being in the world might be construed as ways of doing philosophy.

Yefim Gordon has teamed up with Keith Dexter and Dmitriy Komissarov to produce this insight into the Sukhoi fighter bomber family. In the early 1950s the reborn aircraft design bureau headed by Pavel O. Sukhoi started its renewed activities by creating two aircraft sharing the same fuselage design and power plant-the delta-wing T-3 and the swept-wing S-1. Known to the West as the Fitter, it saw action in quite a few wars including the Indo-Pakistani border conflict of 1971 and the Arab-Israeli wars. This new title is illustrated with a host of unpublished photos, numerous line drawings, and color side views, which will undoubtedly be of interest to aviation enthusiasts and Bitten free ebook scale modelers alike. The in service and operators chapters feature insignia and unit badges and nose art worn by individual aircraft, making this a must have for any aviation and scale model enthusiast's collection.
