Kvarkadabra v kuhinji : znanstvene razlage kuhanja in prehrane
Kuhinja je prostor, v katerem stereotipno kraljujeta kralj in kraljica: kralj je uglajen francoski kuhar z belim predpasnikom in visokim belim klobukom, kraljica pa je prijazna gospodinja s pisanim predpasnikom in ruto na glavi. Pa vendar je lahko to prav zanimiv prostor tudi za znanstvenike in vse ostale radovedneže, ki bodo v vsakem živilu in vsaki jedi ter v mešanju in pečenju ali drugih postopkih in navadah videli fizikalno-kemijsko-biološke procese ali pa družbene pojave. Zato je povsem razumljivo, da je kuharsko dogajanje premamilo tudi Kvarkadabro, da je vstopila v kuhinjo, se dobro razgledala in tudi sama malo poprijela za kuhalnico. Kvarkadabra poroča, kaj je videla, raziskal...
Abortion and Reproductive Rights in Slovenia
Abortion and Reproductive Rights in Slovenia: A Case of Resistance provides a detailed and in-depth analysis of the situation of sexual and reproductive rights in Slovenia. This important intervention comes at a time when sexual and reproductive rights in Slovenia and around the world are assailed by populist and neoconservative discourses. The authors provide a detailed account of the history of the struggle for reproductive rights, particularly the struggles for access to safe abortion, insights based on interviews with fellow activists and an analysis of Slovenian public opinion on abortion in a temporal and comparative perspective. The scholar-activist authors put the issue of sexual and reproductive rights at the forefront of the social, political and scientific agenda in the name of collectivity and solidarity, reinforcing the potential apparent within civil society and social movements. This work will be of interest to researchers and activists with an interest in gender and reproductive rights in contemporary Europe.
eLearning
The term was coined when electronics, with the personal computer, was very popular and internet was still at its dawn. It is a very successful term, by now firmly in schools, universities, and SMEs education and training. Just to give an example 3.5 millions of students were engaged in some online courses in higher education institutions in 2006 in the USA1.eLearning today refers to the use of the network technologies to design, deliver, select, manage and broaden learning and the possibilities made available by internet to offer to the users synchronous and asynchronous learning, so that they can access the courses content anytime and wherever there is an internet connection.
Evaluating Academic Legal Research in Europe

As a consequence, this variety can pose a problem for the evaluation of academic legal research. This thought-provoking book offers an overview of the legal and policy norms, methods and criteria applied in the evaluation of academic legal research, from a comparative perspective.
Naše znanstvenice
Knjiga je zasnovana kot zbirka prispevkov o znanstvenicah, ki so svojo znanstveno disciplino premaknile »korak naprej«. S tem imamo v mislih raziskovalke, profesorice, inovatorke, avtorice pomembnega znanstvenega preboja ali odkritja, patenta, ali pa znanstvenice, ki so v svoje znanstveno področje uvedle novo prakso in metodologijo, ustanovile inštitut oziroma oddelek, ali pa vzpostavile pogoje za razvoj novih znanstvenih disciplin. Profesionalne biografije 27 žensk predstavljenih v tej knjigi odkrijejo veliko več plasti tega kaj ukavrjanje z znanostjo dejansko zaobjema. Znanstveni prispevek žensk je prikazan skozi zgodbe o njihovem delu in življenju, ker profesionalno/javno nikoli ni ločeno od zasebnega/intimnega. Vprašanje kdo raziskuje nikoli ni ločeno od tega kaj oz. kateri predmet raziskuje in kako to počne. Eseji pripovedujejo zgodbo tudi o širšem družbenem prispevku, ki so ga znanstvenice pustile za sabo, ki gre bistveno onkraj ozko razumljenega znanstvenega dela. Tako knjiga želi prispevati tudi spreminjanju razumevanja kaj znanost je, kot proces ustvarjanja vednosti in znanja, kot človeško delo, družbena praksa in poslanstvo.
Pospeševanje skozi zgodovino
Knjiga poskuša odgovoriti na vprašanji – kaj je avto in kakšen je njegov vpliv na naša življenja, pri čemer navezuje anekdotične podatke v obliki zanimivih stereotipov o avtomobilih s preverljivimi statističnimi podatki. Avtomobili so namreč ena najvplivnejših iznajdb sodobne ere, ki je v približno poldrugem stoletju preobrazila tako naše navade kot tudi celotna mesta in pokrajine. Ideja o avtomobilu se je tako usedla v naše možgane, da si življenja brez njega ne moremo niti povečini nočemo zamisliti. Zaradi osredotočenja na analizo podatkov je knjiga bogato opremljena z grafikoni, ki dodatno pojasnjujejo določene statistične elemente o avtomobilih. Vsebuje zgodovinski ...
The Man Who Counted Infinity and Other Short Stories from Science, History and Philosophy
“If I were the only survivor on a remote island and all I had with me were this book, a Swiss army knife and a bottle, I would throw the bottle into the sea with the note: ‘Don’t worry, I have everything I need.’” — Ciril Horjak, alias Dr. Horowitz, a comic artist “The writing is understandable, but never simplistic. Instructive, but never patronizing. Straightforward, but never trivial. In-depth, but never too intense.” — Ali Žerdin, editor at Delo, the main Slovenian newspaper “Does science think? Heidegger once answered this question with a decisive No. The writings on modern science skillfully penned by Sašo Dolenc, these small stories about big stories, quickly con...
