Thinking Nature : An Essay in Negative Ecology
Moving between ancient and modern sources, philosophy and theology, and science and popular culture, Sean McGrath offers a genuinely new reflection on what it means to be human in an era of climate change, mass extinction and geoengineering.Engaging with contemporary thinkers in eco-criticism, including Timothy Morton, Bruno Latour and Slavoj iek, McGrath argues for a distinctive role for the human being in the universe: the human being is nature come to full consciousness.McGrath's compelling case for a new Anthropocenic humanism is founded on a reverence for nature, a humanism that is not at the expense of nature, and a naturalism that is not at the expense of the human.

Negative Spaces
Poppy's sixth studio album continues the sonic adventurism of the diamond-radiant industrial anthem 'New Way Out', with Poppy and co-producer Jordan Fish (ex-Bring Me the Horizon). It's the thrilling sound of an ever-evolving artist redefining their legacy one song at a time, with a welcome understanding that there's still so much inspiration to be found in the margins yet to be explored, deep within the negative spaces.

Body Negative
On the surface the band might resemble a rock band: Their music is stuffed with frenetic, jagged guitars that explode in frenzied bursts as pounding drums collide with intense vocals, all of which is carried forward with the charge of youthful spunk and propulsive energy. Yet plunge beneath that surface layer and MNNQNS are evidently a band exploring guitar music with much more depth and breadth than your average. 'I like pop, punk or experimental electronic music a lot more than rock', D'Epinay says. 'This is why there are these strange sounds and transitions that come in and out during the album: Drones, ambience, drum machines, etc.'

Is culture positive or negative?
Culture can be both positive and negative, as it encompasses a wide range of beliefs, values, and practices. Positive aspects of culture include the preservation of traditions, the celebration of diversity, and the promotion of community and identity. However, culture can also perpetuate harmful norms, discrimination, and inequality. It is important to recognize and address both the positive and negative aspects of culture in order to promote understanding and create a more inclusive society.

Which philosophers have a negative view of human nature?
Philosophers such as Thomas Hobbes and Arthur Schopenhauer have a negative view of human nature. Hobbes believed that humans are inherently selfish, competitive, and driven by a desire for power, leading to a state of constant conflict and war. Schopenhauer viewed human nature as fundamentally driven by egoism, suffering, and a will to dominate others, resulting in a pessimistic outlook on life. These philosophers emphasize the darker aspects of human behavior and motivations, highlighting the potential for cruelty and destructiveness within individuals.

What is the difference between positive pressure and negative pressure in nature?
Positive pressure in nature refers to a situation where the pressure inside a system is greater than the pressure outside, causing the system to push outward. This can be seen in processes like inflation of a balloon or the expansion of a plant cell. On the other hand, negative pressure occurs when the pressure inside a system is lower than the pressure outside, causing the system to contract or collapse. An example of negative pressure is the process of water being drawn up through a plant's roots due to transpiration.

Double Negative
In 2018, Low will turn twenty-five. Since 1993, Alan Sparhawk and Mimi Parker - the married couple whose heaven-and-earth harmonies have always held the band's center - have pioneered a subgenre, shrugged off its structures, recorded a Christmas classic, become a magnetic onstage force, and emerged as one of music's most steadfast and vital vehicles for pulling light from our darkest emotional recesses. But Low will not commemorate its first quarter-century with mawkish nostalgia or safe runs through songbook favourites. Instead, in faithfully defiant fashion, Low will release its most brazen, abrasive (and, paradoxically, most empowering) album ever: 'Double Negative', an unflinching eleven-song quest through snarling static and shattering beats that somehow culminates in the brightest pop song of Low's career.

Negative Certainties
Now in paperback, Jean-Luc Marion's groundbreaking philosophy of human uncertainty. In Negative Certainties, renowned philosopher Jean-Luc Marion challenges some of the most fundamental assumptions we have developed about knowledge: that it is categorical, predicative, and positive.Following Descartes, Kant, and Heidegger, he looks toward our finitude and the limits of our reason.He asks an astonishingly simple—but profoundly provocative—question in order to open up an entirely new way of thinking about knowledge: Isn’t our uncertainty, our finitude, and rational limitations, one of the few things we can be certain about?Marion shows how the assumption of knowledge as positive demands a reductive epistemology that disregards immeasurable or disorderly phenomena.He shows that we have experiences every day that have no identifiable causes or predictable reasons and that these constitute a very real knowledge—a knowledge of the limits of what can be known.Establishing this “negative certainty,” Marion applies it to four aporias, or issues of certain uncertainty: the definition of man; the nature of God; the unconditionality of the gift; and the unpredictability of events.Translated for the first time into English, Negative Certainties is an invigorating work of epistemological inquiry that will take a central place in Marion’s oeuvre.

Is man a creature of nature or culture, or is culture the nature of man?
Man is a complex being influenced by both nature and culture. While humans are inherently part of the natural world, our behaviors, beliefs, and practices are largely shaped by the societies we live in. Culture can be seen as the nature of man in the sense that it is a fundamental aspect of human existence, shaping our identities and interactions with the world. Ultimately, the relationship between nature and culture is intertwined in shaping the essence of humanity.

Is man a being of nature or culture, or is culture the nature of man?
Man is a being of both nature and culture. While humans are inherently a part of the natural world, our ability to create and participate in culture sets us apart from other species. Culture shapes our beliefs, behaviors, and interactions with the world, becoming an essential part of our identity. Therefore, culture can be seen as the nature of man, as it influences and defines our existence in profound ways.

What is the negative logarithm of the negative logarithm?
The negative logarithm of a number is the negative of the logarithm of that number. So, if we take the negative logarithm of a number and then take the negative of that result, we will end up with the original number. In mathematical terms, if we have a number x and we take the negative logarithm of x, denoted as -log(x), and then take the negative of that result, we get -(-log(x)) = log(x).

Why does negative times negative equal positive in mathematics?
In mathematics, the rule that negative times negative equals positive is a result of the properties of multiplication and the number line. When two negative numbers are multiplied together, the result is a positive number because they are essentially being combined in the opposite direction. This can be visualized on the number line, where moving in the negative direction twice (multiplying by -1 twice) results in a positive value. This rule is consistent with the distributive property and helps maintain the consistency and coherence of mathematical operations.
