Feminist Aesthetics and Philosophy of Art: The Power of Critical Visions and Creative EngagementWhile much feminist philosophy is enjoying third- and fourth-wave developments and can build on its scholarly roots forged in the 1960’s and 1970’s, feminist contributions have taken what seems an exceptionally long time to break into the stubborn areas of aesthetics and philosophy of art. Some feminist scholars might reasonably consider aesthetics to be a back-burner issue: if we take feminism mainly to be a movement seeking equality and strategies to address social, economic, and political inequities, views on art practices or values have tended to seem less important than work in the sister area of feminist social and politi-cal theory.

The Feminist Philosophy CollectionOver the past 40 years, philosophy has become a vital arena for feminists. Recent feminist work has challenged canonical claims about the role of wo-men and has developed new methods of analysis and critique, and in doing so has reinvigorated central areas of philosophy. The Feminist Philoso-phy Collection presents new work representative of feminist contributions to the five most signifi-cant areas of philosophy: Feminist Ethics and Po-litical and Social Philosophy; Feminist Philosophy of Religion; Feminist Aesthetics and Philosophy of Art; Feminist History of Philosophy; and Feminist Epistemology and Philosophy of Science. Feminist work in some fields, notably ethics and social theory, has been going on for four decades, while the youngest area of feminist work is, arguably, feminist philosophy of art and aesthetics.

Handbook on the Neuropsychology of EpilepsyEpilepsy is a prevalent condition affecting approximately 1% of the general population. Its behavioral effects on cognition and memory can be as debilitating as the physical aspects caused by ongoing seizures. This book is intended primarily for clinical neuropsychologists who encounter patients with epilepsy, either through employment in academic medical centers or in general practice. The book is of particular value to those working in a comprehensive epilepsy center, as the volume provides extensive coverage of the many clinical procedures performed in that setting. Procedures reviewed in this volume include neuropsycho-logical testing, the Wada procedures, and brain mapping. Chapters include descriptions of the purpose of these procedures, reviews of the recent literature, clinical vignettes, in addition to concre-te recommendations on how to actually conduct the procedures.

FutureScapesManaging Emerging and Future Cultural Landscapes

On 20 July 1969 the world was changed irrevo-cably. An estimated 600 million people, about one fifth of the human population at the time, watched the live-television broadcast as Neil Armstrong stepped onto the Moon. Yet despite the fact that this would forever be THE first moment that a human stepped onto another celestial body the significance for humanity as a whole was not im-mediately recognised. Moreover, no steps were – or have since been – taken to protect and manage significant elements of that event for the benefit of future generations. This begs the question – ‘Why?’ In this latest book in Springer’s innovative Landscape Series, Dirk Spennemann explores the conceptual barriers that prevent the recognition, and subsequent protection, of significant elements of contemporary and emergent heritage.
