Humanity is at a critical juncture in its history. In the last 400 years, humanity has been going through the most profound cultural change in human history. Western culture - and other cultures as well - have in large measure accepted a view of reality as being explainable solely in material terms. This fundamental philosophy has shaped all areas of human activity. This book both describes this phenomenon and evaluates whether there are good reasons to accept it. The author argues that if we adopt such a philosophy, then we have no basis for upholding the dignity of each human being, and this has vast and frightening consequences for human beings. This book is not just timely, but absolutely critical for everybody to read. It is not presented in dry, abstract terms, but in the language of humanity. It is a cry from a human heart, deeply concerned about what is taking place in the world. It is one of the most important books of our time.

R997 Discovery Miles 9 970 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

"No Such Thing as Terminal: The Re-Discovery of the Lost Secret German Cure for Cancer and The Fountain of Youth. " Genetic Engineering is not just a futuristic fantasy which is often how Hollywood portrays it to be. Rather it exists in the here and the now and has been in existence with a technical theory that has been giving positive results since the 1930's. These innovations have however been secretly suppressed for a multitude of reasons not the least of which is political power. Now in this book is discussed one person's accidental hit on the secret cure for cancer using genetic engineering. A cure which has existed since the 1930's and has repeatedly been tried both in vivo and in vitro. Herein is explored one person's speculations, scientific discoveries, and evidence of both the credibility of the medicine and the conspiracy of the cover-up. DNA was not first discovered by Crick and Watson nor were they really the first to describe its structure. This was done long before them with the advent of the invention of Quantum Mechanics which began in earnest in 1926 with the work of Schrodinger and earlier with the work of Von Laue in crystallography.

What can this book bring you?

You are invited to participate in a journey of the mind through time - in a rising arch from the dawn of our cosmic origin, through natural evolution to an analysis of the capabilities of the human mind. A discussion follows of the meaning or direction to pursue on the path of our life, through coping or toward fulfillment -- until we reach the dusk of ultimate fading and death.

At the end follows an outlook into the future, discussing the fundamental risks and opportunities for mankind.

The eight chapters of this book present the author's "Essential Writings" as condensed from 33 of his articles published on his website www.schwab-writings.com.

The author, with MS degrees in physics and electronics, worked in the aero-space and high-tech industries, continued research as auditor at Princeton University, pursued philosophy and theology, and wrote with sincere empathy for all the searching and suffering individuals he encountered, but also with a practical mind.

Become enriched by this deeper understanding of our existence, nature, and our path through life which may simply entertain you or give you peace in daily turmoil and strength to act as your own journey and values demand.

Reliability in Pragmatics (Hardcover): E. McCready Reliability in Pragmatics (Hardcover)
E. McCready
R3,760 Discovery Miles 37 600 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book is an exploration of how knowledge about the reliability of information sources manifests itself in linguistic phenomena and use. It focuses on cooperation in language use and on how considerations of reliability influence what is done with the information acquired through language. E. McCready provides a detailed account of the phenomena of hedging and evidentiality and analyses them using tools from game theory, dynamic semantics, and formal epistemology. Hedging is argued to be a mechanism used by speakers to protect their reputations for cooperativity from damage inflicted by infelicitous discourse moves. The pragmatics of evidential use is also discussed in terms of the histories of interaction that influence reputation: the author argues that past experience with the evidence source indexed by the evidential determines how the process of adding information will proceed. The book makes many new connections between seemingly disparate aspects of linguistic meaning and practice. It will be of interest to specialists in semantics, pragmatics, and philosophy of language, as well as those in the fields of philosophy and cognitive science with an interest in language and epistemology.
