Borges, Calvino, and Eco are as noted for the intriguing philosophical puzzles they present as they are for their inventive literary styles. In their writings, sequences of causality are reversed, individuals switch identities, and stories of one person mirror those of others. Literary Philosophers brings together a group of distinguished philosophers, literary scholars, and comparativists to explore and debate the relationship between philosophy and literature in the works of these brilliant figures.

One of the most knowledgeable and provocative explicators of Paul de Man’s writings, Rodolphe Gasché, a philosopher by training, demonstrates for the first time the systematic coherence of the critic’s work, insisting that de Man continues to merit close attention despite his notoriously difficult and obscure style. Gasché shows that de Man’s "reading" centers on a dimension of the texts that is irreducible to any possible meaning, a dimension characterized by the "absolutely singular." Given that de Man and Derrida are both termed deconstructionists, Gasché different

`Rodolphe Durand has a compelling message for the growing community of evolutionary researchers in organization studies. Evolutionary researchers need to attend more carefully to historical and contemporary debates in the biological sciences if they are to avoid false tracks and simplisitic analogies. Durand offers here the foundations of a distinctive and authentic evolutionary theory that takes organizations seriously for what they are’ - Richard Whittington, Oxford University `This book fills an important gap in the study of organizations and strategy from an evolutionary perspecti

We see so many mediocre office building designs that it is easy to forget just how complex and innovative a well-made one can be. Such is the case with the headquarters for the Belgian financial firm CNP (Compagnie Nationale a Portefeuille) in Charleroi, Belgium. Designed by the office of Belgian architect Philippe Samyn, the CNP Headquarters is a masterwork of ecologically oriented construction and refined aesthetics. In this monograph el-Khoury and Pasnik document the rich and dramatic architectural vocabulary of this project.

For 1,600 years its message lay hidden. When the bound papyrus pages of this lost gospel finally reached scholars who could unlock its meaning, they were astounded. Here was a gospel that had not been seen since the early days of Christianity, and which few experts had even thought existed–a gospel told from the perspective of Judas Iscariot, history’s ultimate traitor. And far from being a villain, the Judas that emerges in its pages is a hero.In this radical reinterpretation, Jesus asks Judas to betray him. In contrast to the New Testament Gospels, Judas Iscariot is presented as a role m
