Kant's groundbreaking philosophical treatise concerning the processes of reason is presented here, complete with all appendices and notes. Viewed by scholars of philosophy as one of the landmark texts of the Enlightenment era, The Critique of Pure Reason is often a primary text in higher educational courses concerning philosophy. First published in 1781 and revised in 1787, this book is generally agreed to be the masterwork of Immanuel Kant for its embracing scope, and the gargantuan influence it has wrought upon philosophers. In composing his most famous critique, Kant consulted the works of contemporary philosophers such as John Locke and David Hume. Their work, which discusses the extent to which human beings can perceive and utilise knowledge, forms the grounding for many of Kant's arguments. This edition of The Critique of Pure Reason contains the original appendices and is presented in a format ideal for students, scholars and enthusiasts of philosophy.

Fascinating story about an exceptional hero, a bottle of wine.
The book The Idea of Being Indians and the Making of India is a must read for all Indians. It informs them why India is a colony of its middle class who keeps the 80 percent of the population out of the benefits of all economic planning and development. The answer is that the struggle for India's freedom was waged by its middle-class leaders only to drive the British out of power and not to get rid of the feudal-fascist governance structures of administration, judiciary, and police, which were "crushing" us, according to Nehru's admission in his book The Discovery of India. These "crushing" structures, our leaders themselves took over and had the taste of the power and pelf that flowed, and their feast still continues while the nation gets the human development ranking at 136 among 187 nations, according the latest Human Development Report released by the UNDP in March 2013. The book narrates in lucid language that the noble and highly egalitarian missions of the Indian Republic, contained in the Preamble to the Constitution of India, could not be translated into experiential comforts for people of this country only because they were not compatible with the feudal-fascist revenue-collection-oriented structures inherited from the British. The book argues that when leaders who, after making a set of highly republican and democratically oriented development objectives for their country, adopt them as the Preamble to the Constitution of India instead of creating relevant democratic republican governance structures to implement, they deliberately pick up the regressive feudal-fascist governance structures used by the colonial government for their selfish ends. It is tantamount not only to a political scam but to a spiritual one. The author gives a twelve-point sarvodaya good governance model' as remedy to these strategic errors of our founding fathers and for making a resurgent India with the help of the mission statements of the Indian Republic enshrined in the Preamble to the Constitution of India. The author argues that the mission statements in the Preamble to the Constitution of India contain the idea of being Indians of a healthy, prosperous, and peaceful society at total or 100 percent population level. The making of India of such a society is in the hands of the people of India, especially the youth.

The Second Coming takes a fresh look at the Gospel of Matthew through the unconditioned eyes of a truth-seeker. The book reinterprets the Gospel of Matthew from a non-dualistic perspective and brings out spiritual insights totally unexpected. The book also brings to the forefront the forgotten character of Joseph as the 'tekton' of the Gospel. The distinctive feature of the book is that it redefines abstruse or undefined biblical terms such as, the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit, God, heaven, hell, Serpent, Satan, sin, etc., in a new light that makes the interpretation internally consistent, and also consistent with the external reality. According to the book, the message of the Gospel is straightforward: "The human body is the Savior. Therefore, turn to the body." The book goes beneath the literal content of the Gospel of Matthew to discover its soul.

This book is a gospel on the subject of the ethics of the well-spoken, that is the speaking being of the ALPHAct. An ori-entation for the analyst to a kinesis of flowing with the flux of the letter, where the subject's mark within the signifier instead of being counted in repetition of the same, it maps the difference, a topology of life emanated by the vector of desire. "On the Ascesis of Psychoanalysts" is an ascesis of swimming in language, where the swimming subject finds their own way of breathing, as if breath is something that needs to be taught, and though it is not, the breath of desire is repressed, and then through breathing language becomes lunguage. Petros' unique writing leads the reader to an also unique reading experience. His text not only praises the desiring subject of the ALPHAct, the EPSILONrhogammaOMICRONnu, but with its vanishing grammar it becomes an inscription of it, it be-comes an ethical compass to the desire of the analyst. Angelos Tsialides Lacanian Psychoanalyst
"A Model of Creation" builds up on the "Unified Mind Theory." Here, we take a closer look at the universe and we find It is reborn any given moment in time. With the help of a five dimensional coordinate system we discover recessional velocity v is not absolute meaning everywhere the same, but relative which means being a function of location within the structure of our Galaxy stretching from v = c the speed of light in 4-D and where matter is condensed of Light, to v = -c also known as a "Black Hole." Matter is condensation of Radiation through a process of "Onestonian Energy Transformation" (E = mc squared). This is an ongoing process. It makes no sense measuring a fast expanding "cloud" and then claiming its expansionary rate to be true for us on earth where we enjoy maximum universal expansion at zero velocity, upsetting everyone. "Space-time modulation" is discussed as a means of instant communication between inner-galactic solar and/or planetary systems.
