Philosophy and Vision

By: Dane R. Gordon

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Philosophy and Vision argues that clear thinking and imaginative understanding are necessary qualities as we try to deal with the problems that confront us in our daily life. The book discusses history, the environment, religion, personal and corporate morality, freedom, the concept of person, poetry, and post-modernism attempts to show that as a philosophic vision is brought to bear on all of these, we will grasp them more completely and more constructively. The issues which challenge most of us seldom have straightforward answers, but they require some answers, some response other than failing out of our emotions. Attempting to see these philosophically, to adopt a philosophic vision, is no panacea, but it may make the difference between being overwhelmed and being able to cope. The book has a crisp enjoyable style, and while it is a philosophical work it draws upon movies, fiction, poetry, and life's experiences in developing its arguments.

Rochester Institute of Technology

Industrial Development and Educational Innovation in an American City, 1829-2006

By: Dane R. Gordon

Rochester Institute of Technology's story now encompasses some 175 years of commitment to higher education. Almost uniquely among American universities, RIT has focused on educating a skilled workforce to support advancements in the industrialization and modernization of America. From its beginnings in 1829, when it harnessed the energy of a young city in upstate New York, through stunningly effective mergers and nimble responses to new technologies, RIT has evolved into a respected model in innovative higher education. In this new and enlarged edition of his original history of RIT (1982), Professor Gordon brings the university's fascinating chronicle up to date. RIT has enjoyed tremendous growth over the past 25 years, and readers will enjoy anecdotes on student life, insights into major initiatives, and an objective look at the tough decisions that have guided RIT into the company of the highest-ranking academic institutions in the United States. This book is of certain interest for urban and technological historians, college administrators nationwide, and especially RIT's own growing community of students, employees, supporters, and alumni.

The Finite Irreducible Linear 2-Groups of Degree 4

By: Dane Laurence Flannery

This memoir contains a complete classification of the finite irreducible 2-subgroups of GL(4, C). Specifically, the author provides a parametrized list of representatives for the conjugacy classes of such groups, where each representative is defined by generating a set of monomial matrices. The problem is treated by a variety of techniques, including: elementary character theory; a method for describing Hasse diagrams of submodule lattices; and calculation of 2-cohomology by means of the Lyndon-Hochschild-Serre spectral sequence. Related questions concerning isomorphism between the listed groups and Schur indices of their defining characters are also considered
