Book Description
"This volume brings together sixteen essays by Louise Antony that reflect her distinctive approach to issues at the intersections of feminist theory, epistemology, philosophy of mind and philosophy of language. Antony proceeds from the Quinean precept that we treat knowledge as a natural phenomenon. This approach, Antony argues, offers feminists and other progressive theorists vital tools with which to expose and dismantle ideological conceptions of knowledge, human nature, and objectivity. She argues that naturalism's focus on the actual (as opposed to hypothetical) circumstances under which human beings acquire knowledge illuminates and responds to feminist calls for a "situated" account of human knowledge. At the same time, Antony defends a number of views that have been the object of feminist criticism: psychological individualism, cognitive nativism, and the autonomy of semantics. These views, Antony argues, are in no way incompatible with feminist commitments, which is good, because they enjoy broad empirical support. Also in this volume, Antony addresses a number of practical issues of concern to feminists: Does pornography silence women? Are we ethically entitled to moral partiality? Is legitimate authority possible? Why are there so few women in philosophy? Finally, Antony presents and develops her own theory of gender. She argues that genders are socially constructed and multiply realized categories that bring into concordance sets of properties that have no natural or rational connection to each other. Genders must not be identified with the categories "female" and "male," but human sexual difference is the material, explanatory basis of gender systems: but for the existence of differences in reproductive role between females and males, gender regimes would not exist"--

Book Description
This volume showcases the work of philosopher Louise Antony, and her influential contributions to feminist and analytic philosophy, epistemology, and the philosophy of mind. Her broadly interdisciplinary work brings a naturalistic perspective to philosophical issues of both theoretical and practical importance and center on a key theme--whether, and how, facts about human embodiment ought to constrain philosophical theories. Antony argues that feminist criticisms of analytic epistemology have brought to light some serious limitations of mainstream approaches to the theory of knowledge, and that a naturalistic approach to epistemology is called for. In Part One of this volume, she considers the relationship between feminism and analytic philosophy of mind and language, with special attention to "speech act" theories of pornography. In Part Two, she defends naturalized epistemology both as a correct approach to the study of human knowledge, and as a useful tool for progressive activists in the struggle for social justice. And in Part Three, she confronts nature-nurture debates, particularly as these erupt in debates about gender and racial equality. Throughout the volume, she makes the case for a philosophical method informed by empirical science. Collecting these articles alongside a new introduction reveal the underlying unity and impressive power of Antony's work over several decades. Groundbreaking at the time of their publication, and more relevant today, this collection will be of interest to a wide range of philosophical readers.

Book Description
News flash: Your body already knows how to detox; you just need to turn on the right cues to make it happen. Here's how, with a 14-day plan that will change your life forever. Time to detox and cleanse? Don't go with a fad diet that makes promises you can't keep (all juice, all the time—sound familiar?). Instead, turn to Samantha Heller for a program that really works. Cleanses, detoxes, and other purifying practices have been around for hundreds of years, from fasting to juicing and everything in between. Not all of them are tried-and-true, and most aren't scientifically sound. But finally, here it is: the only cleanse you'll ever need. The Only Cleanse is uniquely designed to fully integrate, elevate, and reestablish the body's biochemical balance. Heller uses a five-pronged approach that covers diet, stress, emotions, exercise, and sleep. She also reviews existing detox plans and explains the pros and cons, further emphasizing why her plan is the only one you need.

Table of Contents Introduction Starting Your Own Nursery – Red Roses Planting Your Roses Food for your roses – Pruning Added Ingredients in what you buy… Making Traditional Rosewater – the Easy Way Infused Essential Oil Starting the Infusion Process Quick Kitchen Method: Infused oil rose creams and ointments Healthy Traditional Rose Jam Rose Petals to cure Stomach Ulcers Traditional Cooling Rose Sherbet Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction In our book series publications, you are going to get informational books about how you can manage your finances, start up your small businesses, and even earn from home along with other useful necessary business and financial management tips. These books are not restricted to millennials only, because I passed the age limit of millennials – 35, more than a decade ago, and you can call me belonging to generation Y. Nevertheless, these books are based upon my experiences and the experiences of my colleagues, friends, relatives, acquaintances and Legion of cohorts. Some of them are millennials, belonging to the generation Z, age group 18 to 35, some are of generation Y, 36 to 60, and some belong to Generation X above 60. They can also find plenty of practical information in these books, and say, “yes, she is right, the financial situation and economic conditions through which we have passed and, of which generation Z does not know anything about, has been a global phenomenon, and we went through it can empathize and understand.” And that is why I decided that at least a couple of my books were going to be based on one single natural product, on which you could build your own small business, without lots of initial investment. The place in which you would make your products based on this ingredient would be either your kitchen or in a nice small corner in your basement, which is well aired, well ventilated and well lighted. Who knows that like Estée Lauder and like grandma Brown, this would be the location for a multibillion-dollar industry 20 years down the line, and you would be known all over the world as the Rose Queen or the Rose King – no doubt that dread appellation would have been bestowed upon you by the cynical press just waiting out there to pounce upon successful people. So today, we are concentrating on one product, roses, of which, we are going to be using the plants, rose petals, their leaves, their hips to make a large number of products. These products have been in use it, throughout the centuries all over the world, so I had to do a little bit of research to get the original recipes for herbal healing jam made in Persia, since ancient times, and then spread all over the world. Rosewater - Made at home Along with this, you are going to learn about healthy lotions and potions, which are going to use Rose items as a base and other natural ingredients as carrier oils. Also, red roses – this book is going to use just one plant, red roses not being not white, because these are not power enough, nor do they have the healing qualities which one expects from a fresh rose or dried rose petals. Remember these books are to help you start up your small businesses, without investing thousands of dollars in seed funding and starting up your business initially. You just need to have that product, right at hand, and a ready supply of red rose

Book Description
Estimates of the natural interest rate are often useful in the analysis of monetary and other macroeconomic policies. The topic gathered much attention following the great financial crisis and the Euro Area debt crisis due to the uncertainty regarding the timing of monetary policy normalization and the future path of interest rates. Using a sample of European countries (including several members of the Euro Area), this paper provides estimates of country-specific natural interest rates and some of their drivers between 2000 and 2019. In line with the literature, our findings suggest that natural interest rates declined during this period, and despite a rebound in the last few years of it, they have not recovered to their pre-crisis levels. The paper also discusses the implications of the decline in natural interest rates for monetary conditions and debt sustainability.
