The second volume in a landmark commentary on an important and influential work of ancient philosophyThis is the second volume of a groundbreaking commentary on one of the most important works of ancient philosophy, the Enneads of Plotinusa text that formed the basis of Neoplatonism and had a deep influence on early Christian thought and medieval and Renaissance philosophy. This volume covers Enneads IV and V, which focus on two of the principal hypostases of Plotinuss ontological system, namely the soul and the Intellect. Paul Kalligas provides an analytical exegesis of the arguments, along with an account of Plotinuss principal sources, references to other parts of his work, and a systematic evaluation of his overarching theoretical aspirations. A landmark contribution to Plotinus scholarship, this is the most detailed and extensive commentary ever written for the whole of the Enneads. <br><br> Autorid: Paul Kalligas, Nickolaos Koutras <br>

The Ethics of Artificial Intelligence has two goals. The first goal is meta-theoretical and is fulfilled by Part One, which comprises the first three chapters: an interpretation of the past (Chapter 1), the present (Chapter 2), and the future of AI (Chapter 3). Part One develops the thesis that AI is an unprecedented divorce between agency and intelligence. On this basis, Part Two investigates the consequences of such a divorce, developing the thesis that AI as a new form of agency can be harnessed ethically and unethically. It begins (Chapter 4) by offering a unified perspective on the many principles that have been proposed to frame the ethics of AI. This leads to a discussion (Chapter 5) of the potential risks that may undermine the application of these principles, and then (Chapter 6) an analysis of the relation between ethical principles and legal norms, and a definition of soft ethics as post-compliance ethics. Part Two continues by analysing the ethical challenges causedby the development and use of AI (Chapter 7), evil uses of AI (Chapter 8), and good practices when applying AI (Chapter 9). The last group of chapters focuses on the design, development, and deployment of AI for Social Good or AI4SG (Chapter 10); the positive and negative impacts of AI on the environment and how it can be a force for good in the fight against climate change-but not without risks and costs, which can and must be avoided or minimised (Chapter 11); and the possibility of using AI in support of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (Chapter 12). The book concludes (Chapter 13) by arguing in favour of a new marriage between the Green of all our habitats and the Blue of all our digital technologies and how this new marriage can support and develop a better society and a healthier biosphere. <br><br> Autorid: Luciano Floridi <br>

Fanttik A10 Pro 2-in-1 Laser Distance MeterThe Fanttik A10 Pro is a compact tool that combines a classic tape measure with a precise laser rangefinder. This allows you to measure both short distances with high accuracy and larger spaces without unrolling the tape. It is a convenient solution for home, workshop, and professional use—without the need to carry two separate tools.Two measurement methods in one deviceThe A10 Pro combines a 3-meter tape measure with a laser rangefinder with a range of up to 50 meters. In practice, this means that you can quickly switch between traditional and laser measurement, depending on the situation. The tape measure is ideal for details and short distances, while the laser allows you to conveniently measure larger rooms or facades without the help of a second person. Intelligent mode switching makes it easy to work both indoors and outdoors.Clear IPS screen – convenient work in all conditionsThe meter is equipped with a 3.75 cm color IPS screen with adjustable brightness up to 500 nits and a resolution of 172 × 320. This ensures that readings remain clear even in direct sunlight. Importantly, the screen simultaneously displays the results from the tape measure and laser rangefinder, which speeds up work and reduces the need to switch views. This saves time during intensive measurements.Various units, modes, and reference pointsThe device supports 6 units of measurement: ft, ft+in, in, m, cm, and mm, making it easy to adapt to the type of project. There are 3 operating modes available – distance, area, and volume measurement – so you can perform more calculations with a single device without additional tools. Three reference points (front, rear, mounting hole) increase flexibility in hard-to-reach places such as corners or ceilings.Measurement memory and USB-C chargingThe Fanttik A10 Pro stores up to 30 measurement results, allowing you to quickly return to previous data without having to measure again. The built-in battery, charged via a USB-C port, provides over 5,000 uses on a single charge, making the device ideal for long working days without the need for frequent power connections.Stability and operation in hard-to-reach placesThe housing is designed for mounting on a tripod, which increases stability when measuring at height or in larger spaces. Stable positioning of the device translates into more accurate measurements and greater comfort when working in more demanding conditions. The Fanttik A10 Pro is a practical 2-in-1 tool for those who expect precision, convenience, and versatility in one compact device.

This book tells the story of the secret operations on nuclear espionage operations carried out from Argentina by the US Air Force between 1946 and 1974 with the aim of identifying the country's uranium deposits and the development of the Argentine nuclear program, as well as the growth of the nuclear arsenal of the Soviet Union, China and France. Flashes in the Dark Volume 2 continues the story of the US nuclear espionage conducted from the territory of Argentina or the Argentine aerospace. Following the secret use of older, modified aircraft intended to detect uranium deposits at earlier times, in 1958-1960, the US Air Force began deploying types like Lockheed WU-2A and Martin NB-57B at the Ezeiza Airport, outside Buenos Aires. These were tasked with capturing radioactive particles resulting from nuclear and thermonuclear explosions in the Soviet Union and France. Later, in 1966, a permanent detachment was installed in the IV Air Brigade of Mendoza to spy on the French explosions in the Mururoa and Fangataufa atolls with Lockheed WU-2C, Martin/General Dynamics RB-57F and various variants of investigation. weather and electronic intelligence of the Boeing C-135.Despite the official recognition of AFOAT-1/AFTAC in 1975, much remains a secret around these two units, a shield to which USAF lawyers have contributed very efficiently, who have refused to approve the declassification of their documents and even to the elaboration of an official history focused even on the first years of operation of the unit, those during which the first deployment of North American spy planes to Argentina took place.However, the door that the USAF closed with ten padlocks was next to windows that other US federal agencies opened over time. Indeed, over the years the National Archives of the United States (National Archives and Records Administration, NARA) have been receiving and making available to the public documents initially classified as secret coming from the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), the Atomic Energy Commission (USAEC), the Defense Atomic Support Agency (DASA), the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and the Environmental Measurement Laboratory (EML). A good number of these documents alluded to or were linked to the AFOAT-1/AFTAC units, which allowed the author to trace the activities of long-range nuclear detection carried out in Argentina and confirm isolated notes of a symphony that was performed so masterful for fifteen years in our country without anyone being able to hear it.The air operations carried out from Argentina were classified as ultra-secret (Top Secret and Top Secret Umbra), so its officers took pains not to leave a single trace, indication or record among us. Such was the secret that not even the Argentine Air Force could know in depth what was happening in Ezeiza and Mendoza, the two airports from which secret air operations were projected permanently, both under its jurisdiction.Given the unprecedented and sensitive nature of the issues addressed in this book, the author abounds in bibliographical and documentary citations, so that other researchers can exploit them in the course of future work. <br><br> Autorid: Gustavo Marón <br>

A two-volume study of political thought from the late thirteenth to the end of the sixteenth century, the decisive period of transition from medieval to modern political theory. The work is intended to be both an introduction to the period for students, and a presentation and justification of a particular approach to the interpretation of historical texts. Quentin Skinner gives an outline account of all the principal texts of the period, discussing in turn the chief political writings of Dante, Marsiglio, Bartolus, Machiavelli, Erasmus and more, Luther and Calvin, Bodin and the Calvinist revolutionaries. But he also examines a very large number of lesser writers in order to explain the general social and intellectual context in which these leading theorists worked. He thus presents the history not as a procession of 'classic texts' but are more readily intelligible. He traces by this means the gradual emergence of the vocabulary of modern political thought, and in particular the crucial concept of the State. We are given an insight into the actual processes of the formation of ideologies and into some of the linkages between political theory and practice. Professor Skinner has been awarded the Balzan Prize Life Time Achievement Award for Political Thought, History and Theory. Full details of this award can be found at http://www.balzan.it/News_eng.aspx?ID=2474
The second volume in our flagship series designed for heritage students and advanced learners of Arabic offers a comprehensive approach to teaching reading and writing skillsFrom Reading to Writing is a content- and task-based textbook for students of Arabic as a heritage language at advanced and superior levels, aimed at developing learners key language skills, especially reading and writing. Although heritage learners can often communicate in colloquial Arabic through exposure to the spoken language at home or in their country of residence, they equally as often face fundamental problems in reading and writing, as well as in speaking, Modern Standard Arabic (MSA).
