Addiction as Existence
Addiction is often thought about in terms of cause, be that brain chemistry, attachment patterns or cognitive schemas.But this does not allow an understanding of what addiction 'is'.It does not illuminate how addiction is lived. A phenomenology of addiction reveals that addiction is characterised by an intolerance of pain, a pursuit of pleasure, immediacy, technocratic solutions, alienation, ambiguity and is drenched in deception.These are its individual clinical manifestations, but this is also the way life, in this century is lived.The addict is thus the ultimate 21st century subject, consuming without end, intolerant of emotion and unable to grasp their own limitations.Rather than embraced, these subjects act as a denied symptom, haunting late capitalism and exposing the vampire-like nature of our culture.As such, these subjects need to be treated not just as individuals who have "gone too far", but as victims of the political agenda shaping our lives.Thus the heart of the book is a description of addiction deepened by existential-phenomenological theory.This description is then used to understand the historical emergence of addiction, its socio-political manifestation and also the crucial issue of how to clinically treat the addict-subject.

Lesbian : Politics, Culture, Existence
A history of feminist and lesbian thinking from the 1970s to the presentAcross almost 50 years of writing, Susan Hawthorne’s essays on lesbian culture and politics take the reader on a journey through the concerns of radical feminists engaged in the Women’s Liberation Movement.Not only does she trace the experiments of lesbians creating a vibrant woman-loving culture, but she also traces the backlash against lesbians and a history of violence perpetrated by the state, corporations and individual men.She begins with a recollection of a rape in her pre-feminist days, followed by a critique of the institution of heterosexuality and the role of lesbian feminism as a strategy.She is soon asking questions about lesbian existence.The essays span reflections on lesbian literature and the development of lesbian culture, including the politics of physical expression in circus.Susan Hawthorne writes about cultural appropriation, depoliticisation and the erasure of lesbian inventiveness.She researches violence against lesbians including rape, torture and murder and the way in which this violence is ignored and often distorted by the media.Her investigations include lesbian refugees, lesbian economics, violation of lesbian human rights and the impact of the transgender industrial complex on the existence of lesbians as a political force.

The Existence of God
Richard Swinburne presents a substantially rewritten and updated edition of his most celebrated book.No other work has made a more powerful case for the probability of the existence of God.Swinburne gives a rigorous and penetrating analysis of the most important arguments for theism: the cosmological argument; arguments from the existence of laws of nature and the 'fine-tuning' of the universe; from the occurrence of consciousness and moral awareness; and from miracles and religious experience.He claims that while none of these arguments are deductively valid, they do give inductive support to theism and that, even when the argument from evil is weighed against them, taken together they offer good grounds to support the probability that there is a God.The overall structure of the discussion and its conclusion have been retained for this new edition, but much has been changed in order to strengthen the argumentation and to take account of Swinburne's subsequent work on the nature of consciousness and the problem of evil, and of the latest philosophical and scientific writing, especially in respect of the laws of nature and the argument from fine-tuning.This is now the definitive version of a classic in the philosophy of religion.

The Non-Existence of God
Is it possible to prove or disprove God's existence?Arguments for the existence of God have taken many different forms over the centuries: in The Non-Existence of God, Nicholas Everitt considers all of the arguments and examines the role that reason and knowledge play in the debate over God's existence.He draws on recent scientific disputes over neo-Darwinism, the implication of 'big bang' cosmology, and the temporal and spatial size of the universe; and discusses some of the most recent work on the subject, leading to a controversial conclusion.

The Meaning of Human Existence
Searching for meaning in what Nietzsche called "the rainbow colours" around the outer edges of knowledge and imagination, Edward O.Wilson bridges science and philosophy to create a twenty-first-century treatise on human existence.Once criticised for his over-reliance on genetics, Wilson unfurls his most expansive and advanced theories on human behaviour.Whether attempting to explicate "the Riddle of the Human Species", warning of "the Collapse of Biodiversity" or creating a plausible "Portrait of E.T.", Wilson believes that humanity holds a special position in the known universe.Alarmed, however, that we are about to abandon natural selection by redesigning biology and human nature as we wish them, Wilson concludes that advances in science and technology bring us our greatest moral dilemma in millennia.
