The Trolley Problem Mysteries - F.m. (littauer Professor Of Philosophy And Public Policy In The Kennedy School Of Government Kamm - Bog - Oxford

Suppose you can stop a trolley from killing five people, but only by turning it onto a side track where it will kill one. May you turn the trolley? What if the only way to rescue the five is to topple a bystander in front of the trolley so that his body stops it but he dies? May you use a device to stop the trolley that will kill a bystander as a side effect? The "trolley problem" challenges us to explain and justify our different intuitive judgments about these and related cases. Frances Kamm''s 2013 Tanner Lectures present some of her views on this notorious moral conundrum. After providing a brief history of changing views of what the problem is about and attempts to solve it, she focuses on two prominent issues: Does who turns the trolley and how the harm is shifted affect the moral permissibility of acting? The answers to these questions lead to general proposals about when we may and may not harm some to help others. Three distinguished philosophers - Judith Jarvis Thomson (one of the originators of the trolley problem), Thomas Hurka, and Shelly Kagan - then comment on Kamm''s proposals. She responds to each comment at length, providing an exceptionally rich elaboration and defense of her views. This book is invaluable not only to philosophers concerned about the trolley problem, but to anyone worried about how we ought to act when we can lessen harm to some by harming others and how we can reach a decision about the question.

Trolleyology - Julia Peyton Jones - Bog - Trolley Books - Plusbog.dk

Trolleyology - Julia Peyton Jones - Bog - Trolley Books - Plusbog.dk

Since they were founded in 2001, Trolley Books has been highly regarded as a maverick independent publisher of photography, reportage, contemporary art and, recently, literature. Trolley’s founder Gigi Giannuzzi was a well-known figure in the publishing and photographic industries for his original and dynamic approach to photobook publishing as well as his unrelenting support of photographers and important but underexposed stories. However aged 49 he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and died on Christmas Eve, 2012. Shortly before his death, work began on a new book TROLLEYOLOGY, a look at the story behind Gigi and Trolley, which also marked our first decade in publishing. TROLLEYOLOGY presents previously unseen material from the making of the award-winning books, including personal images, contact sheets and photographers’ recollections, documenting the unique stories from each book and the importance of this small but potent publishing house. It also features interviews with our photographers, writers, artists and friends, from the worlds of photography, art and publishing. TROLLEYOLOGY brings together photographers including Nan Goldin, Alex Majoli, Stanley Greene, Paolo Pellegrin, Adam Broomberg and Oliver Chanarin, Tom Stoddart, Nina Berman, Thomas Dworzak, Alixandra Fazzina, Robin Maddock, and Jamie Morgan. It also includes contributions from other members of the Trolley family such as the artists Paul Fryer, Sarah Lucas, Polly Morgan, Mat Collishaw, Le Gun and writers Iphgenia Baal, Sean O Hagan, Julian Stallabrass and cultural historian Barry Miles. The book contains a foreword by Serpentine Gallery directors Julia Peyton-Jones and Hans Ulrich Obrist.

The Backpack - Brandon S Hultink - Bog - Linden Publishing Co Inc - Plusbog.dk

A former police officer tells his personal story of the long climb from depression to faith in the intense new personal memoir The Backpack. An amazing journey from despair to hope, The Backpack tells the truth about the burdens of stress and trauma on police officers and presents an inspirational story of how one cop overcame physical and emotional wounds suffered in the line of duty. I can still remember the taste of metal in my mouth from the barrel of the gun... After the shoot-out that put him in a wheelchair, police officer Brandon S. Hultink was ready to put an end to it all. In his frank and compelling memoir The Backpack, Hultink tells how he came to the worst moment of his life, and how faith in God and the humility to accept help brought him out of depression, addiction and the wheelchair and back into successful life. But Hultinks story isnt his alone -- it is also the story of the thousands of police officers who struggle with depression and post-traumatic stress. Cops dont do touchy-feely; they stuff every trauma into a metaphorical backpack until the burden overwhelms them. Hultink writes unflinchingly of the mental health crisis affecting police officers and offers proposals for improving mental health services for police. An intensely personal story of anguish and survival, The Backpack offers hope to everyone -- police and civilian alike -- who struggle with depression and pain.
