Thinking Space looks at a range of social theorists and asks what role space plays in their work, what difference (if any) it makes to their concepts, and what difference such an appreciation makes to the way we might think about space.

The cafe is not only a place to enjoy a cup of coffee, it is also a space - distinct from its urban environment - in which to reflect and take part in intellectual debate. Since the eighteenth century in Europe, intellectuals and artists have gathered in cafes to exchange ideas, inspirations and information that has driven the cultural agenda for Europe and the world. Without the café, would there have been a Karl Marx or a Jean-Paul Sartre? The café as an institutional site has been the subject of renewed interest amongst scholars in the past decade, and its role in the development of art, ideas and culture has been explored in some detail. However, few have investigated the ways in which cafés create a cultural and intellectual space which brings together multiple influences and intellectual practices and shapes the urban settings of which they are a part. This volume presents an international group of scholars who consider cafés as sites of intellectual discourse from across Europe during the long modern period. Drawing on literary theory, history, cultural studies and urban studies, the contributors explore the ways in which cafes have functioned and evolved at crucial moments in the histories of important cities and countries - notably Paris, Vienna and Italy. Choosing these sites allows readers to understand both the local particularities of each café while also seeing the larger cultural connections between these places. By revealing how the café operated as a unique cultural context within the urban setting, this volume demonstrates how space and ideas are connected. As our global society becomes more focused on creativity and mobility the intellectual cafés of past generations can also serve as inspiration for contemporary and future knowledge workers who will expand and develop this tradition of using and thinking in space.

"Architecture in all its dimensions can only be experienced with our senses through an actual being-in-space. We orient ourselves visually and acoustically in space, get our first spatial impression via our senses of sight and hearing, and at the same time we are already receiving information about the haptic and olfactory properties of the space, its arrangement and form. By being in these spaces, moving through them, we are continuously faced with new sensual impressions." Space and spatial perception have been central themes for Irmgard Frank as an architect and Professor for Interior Design for more than 20 years. She is constantly reinterpreting and refocusing the terms space, atmosphere, light and materiality in her work. In this book Irmgard Frank intensifies the space discussion by weaving together selections from her own works, essays from different disciplines and points of view, and a thematically organized series of pictures. The synthesis of documentation, reflection and visually transmitted atmospheric qualities can be seen as a rigorous translation of Irmgard Frank's work on space and spatial perception into the medium of a book. The book received an award at "schönste österreichische Bücher 2010" (most beautiful Austrian books of 2010). It was nominated for the Designpreis Deutschland 2012.

The preoccupation with “depth” and its relevance to cinema and media studies For decades the concept of depth has been central to critical thinking in numerous humanities-based disciplines, legitimizing certain modes of inquiry over others. Deep Mediations examines why and how this is, as scholars today navigate the legacy of depth models of thought and vision, particularly in light of the “surface turn” and as these models impinge on the realms of cinema and media studies. The collection’s eighteen essays seek to understand the decisive but evolving fixation on depth by considering the term’s use across a range of conversations as well as its status in relation to critical methodologies and the current mediascape. Engaging contemporary debates about new computing technologies, the environment, history, identity, affect, audio/visual culture, and the limits and politics of human perception, Deep Mediations is a timely interrogation of depth’s ongoing importance within the humanities.

The think-space approach to child management is based on little-understood principles of human behavior that, when applied correctly, prove remarkably effective. The key is learning to give a child time and space to do two things: to quiet emotional upset without guilt or repression and to make positive behavioral adjustments without threats or intimidation.The Richerts' methods are a safe, peaceful way to to help children correct their own behavior. And The Think Space explains these methods in a simple, practical way that leaves you wondering Why didn't I think of that? -- Shows how to turn moments of conflict with young children into moments of low-stress learning for both parent and child. -- Focuses on building appropriate behavior rather than just stamping out inappropriate behavior. -- Endorsed by the founders of Time-Out.

This volume offers an integrated understanding of how the theory of general relativity gained momentum after Einstein had formulated it in 1915. Chapters focus on the early reception of the theory in physics and philosophy and on the systematic questions that emerged shortly after Einstein's momentous discovery. They are written by physicists, historians of science, and philosophers, and were originally presented at the conference titled Thinking About Space and Time: 100 Years of Applying and Interpreting General Relativity, held at the University of Bern from September 12-14, 2017. By establishing the historical context first, and then moving into more philosophical chapters, this volume will provide readers with a more complete understanding of early applications of general relativity (e.g., to cosmology) and of related philosophical issues. Because the chapters are often cross-disciplinary, they cover a wide variety of topics related to the general theory of relativity. These include: Heuristics used in the discovery of general relativity Mach's Principle The structure of Einstein's theory Cosmology and the Einstein world Stability of cosmological models The metaphysical nature of spacetime The relationship between spacetime and dynamics The Geodesic Principle Symmetries Thinking About Space and Time will be a valuable resource for historians of science and philosophers who seek a deeper knowledge of the (early and later) uses of general relativity, as well as for physicists and mathematicians interested in exploring the wider historical and philosophical context of Einstein's theory.
