What is it to grieve for the death of a parent? More literary and experiential than other philosopical works on emotion, Upheavals of Thought will engage the reader who has ever stopped to ask that question. Emotions such as grief, fear, anger and love seem to be alien forces that disturb our thoughts and plans. Yet they also embody some of our deepest thoughts--about the importance of the people we love, about the vulnerability of our bodies and our plans to events beyond our control. In this wide-ranging book, based on her Gifford Lectures, philosopher Martha Nussbaum draws on philosophy, psychology, anthropology, music and literature to illuminate the role emotions play in our thoughts about important goals. Starting with an account of her own mother's death, she argues that emotions are intelligent appraisals of a world that we do not control, in the light of our own most significant goals and plans. She then investigates the implications of this idea for normative issues, analyzing the role of compassion in private and public reasoning and the attempts of authors both philosophical and literary to purify or reform the emotion of erotic love. Ultimately, she illuminates the structure of emotions and argues that once we understand the complex intelligence of emotions we will also have new reasons to value works of literature as sources of ethical education. Martha C. Nussbaum is Ernst Freund Distinguished Service Professor of Law and Ethics, University of Chicago, appointed in Law School, Philosophy department, and Divinity School, and an Associate in Classics. A leading scholar in ancient Greek ethics, aesthetics and literature, her previous books include The Fragility of Goodness (Cambridge, 1986), Loves's Knowledge (Oxford, 1992), Poetic Justice (Beacon Press, 1997), The Therapy of Desire (Princeton, 1996), Cultivating Humanity (Harvard, 1997), and Sex and Social Justice (Oxford, 1999). Her reviews have appeared in the New York Times, Boston Globe, New York Review of Books, and New Republic.

fits my Sienna 2006 with a little adjustment - sturdy, clean and happy that I brought it
Size: 8.3" x 8.4" x 0.6"
I brought this for my Camry 2006 and I have a Sienna 2004 as well that use the same regular cabin filter with the exact model. But when I put this K&N filter on my Sienna it doesn't fit well. The K&N filter sits in the plastic cabin filter frame exactly but there are four little plastic square on the side of the plastic frame sticking out that were in the way. I trim off the K&N border a bit and also the frame too in order to fit in. Beside a little adjustment, it works perfectly for my Sienna 2004. The smell is gone. I also use an oil pen to note on the K&N filter that "Do not replace" in case the dealer replace it during a maintain. I would buy more but this is life time I will buy another one for my camry. I am more than glad introducing this to my friends

Make sure it fits your vehicle cabin filter.
Size: 8.3" x 8.4" x 0.6"
I like that it last long and I don't need to buy replacement every time a funky smell starts appearing after turning on the car or truck AC or heater. Saves money by easy to maintain without replacements.

buen material
Size: 8.3" x 8.4" x 0.6"
Es una buena compra excelente producto calza perfectamente en mi Fj cruiser 2011, en cuanto a su durabilidad lo diré cuando pueda hacerlo por lo pronto está instalado cuando haga los primeros lavados volveré a comentar si se mantienen en buen estado como promete. Lo que difiere con el original es que un lado va para abajo el que tienen una felpa tipo algodón y el otro para arriba en cambio en este filtro de cabina K&N no se sabe cual lado ba abajo o cual arriba, por eso menos una estrella

It works as advertised
Size: 8.3" x 8.4" x 0.6"
The one thing I haven't found out is if the product will remove exhaust smells - I don't believe it will, but the nice thing is that air flows a little bit better then the Toyota FJ carbon filter that was in there. I don't believe the previous owner even knew it had a cabin filter. Glad to have this in there.
