Heidegger and Marcuse: The Catastrophe and Redemption of History

This brief ebook contrasts the philosophies of expertise of Heidegger and Marcuse, one in all Heidegger's celebrity scholars, and relates their paintings to modern expertise reviews. Feenberg units out the old and theoretical history of the talk, then discusses each one philosopher's concept in flip, and ends with a major research of the consequences for modern expertise experiences.

Die physikalischen und chemischen Grundlagen der Glasfabrikation

Die Wissenschaft yom Glase ist infolge der Anwendung neuer physi kalischer Auffassungen und Methoden derart in Breite und Tiefe an geschwollen, daB es dem Ingenieur und dem Studenten immer schwie riger wird, die wissenschaftlichen Fundamente zu iibersehen. Es ist Zweck dieses Buches, den Zusammenhang zwischen der Grundlagen forschung einerseits und der Glaschemie und der Technologie anderer seits wieder herzustellen.

However, there is considerable evidence that they have comutagenic and cocarcinogenic activity (summarized by Kelsey, 1983). , 1978) and to enhance the mutagenicity of benzo(a)pyrene and 2-aminoanthracene (Silverman and Andrews, 1977). Narisawa et 01. (1974) showed that intrarectal administration of secondary bile acids increased the incidence of colon adenomas Gut bacterial metabolism 39 induced by N-methyl-N-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) in rats. Subsequently, Reddy et 01. (1977) provided evidence for the importance of bacterial metabolism of bile acids for this tumour-promoting activity by demonstrating that the primary bile acids act as promotors of MNNGinduced colon tumours only in conventional flora rats, whereas the secondary bile acids exert tumour-promoting activity in both germ-free and conventional flora animals.

J} Decarboxylation oE amino acids Decarboxylation of several amino acids by bacteria in the gut can produce pharmacologically active monoamines such as tyramine, from tryrosine, and tryptamine, from tryptophan (Melnykowycz and Gut bacterial metabolism 37 Johansson, 1955). Diamines can also be produced by decarboxylation of lysine and histidine. , 1968). In healthy individuals, these metabolites are usually detoxified by mammalian amine oxidases, but in the presence of amine oxidase inhibitor drugs, or in patients with impaired hepatic function, increased levels of the toxic amines may be present in body tissues and fluids.
