‘Politics’ is my 42nd philosophy book written in free verse poetry. This book contains theories on the politics of quaternions and how this topic relates to many of the French philosophers and their works. The core subject of deterritorialization based on the work of Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari is analyzed with the politics of quaternions. Jean Baudrillard and his work of the original and the simulacra is also analyzed politically and religiously. With other works of Jacques Lacan and Jacques Derrida linking to the politics of quaternions there is a philosophy of the End Times ...

"Big intellectual relief at this time. A companion item for sunsetting civilisation" In this climate crisis that masquerades as a social, political, healthcare and ecological collapse, we are gradually moving on from the phase of delusion and false hopes that we can act, to the phase of simply observing the long overdue consequences of our toxic civilisation. But as we do, more of us wake up to the realities of our systemic failures. In this short anthology of aphorisms, I attempt to redefine, sometimes in a comical, other times in a metaphorical, but definitely in a caustic way, some of ...

‘The Epistemology of the Military’ is the 51st philosophy book written in free verse poetry by Ronnie Lee. Through the ‘laws of linguistics’ there is a simple approach to analyzing the topics of the military and the strategies of war. These concepts are correlated with the politics of quaternions that represents an occult state of politics in the World. There are other subjects on philosophy, religion and existentialism and there are thoughts on the present conditions of the End Times on Earth. This book follows on from his previous books and the poetry can be read in personal terms...

Polyvagal Theory (PVT) has had a tremendous impact on the mental health field, shedding light on how the nervous system predictably moves between different states in response to changing situations. School consultant Debra Em Wilson introduces PVT to educators and shows how using PVT-guided strategies can help create optimal learning environments. When school staff understand the role of the nervous system in learning, they can better help students develop the skills leading to increased resilience, adaptability, and flexibility.

Closing a door can be the most noble and necessary gesture of self-love. It’s not always about anger, resentment, or indifference. Sometimes, closing a door simply means recognizing that there’s no point in knocking anymore. The Art of Closing Doors is a deeply human book, written from the experience of someone who has loved, let go, and rebuilt themselves. It’s an intimate yet powerful guide for those who have learned that healing doesn’t always mean reconciliation. Sometimes, it means understanding, accepting, forgiving… and walking away. This book was born from the serenity ...

In Just War Reconsidered: Strategy, Ethics, and Theory, James M. Dubik draws on years of research as well as his own experiences as a soldier and teacher to fill the gaps left by other theorists. He applies moral philosophy, political philosophy, and strategic studies to historical and contemporary case studies to reveal the inaccuracies and moral bankruptcy that inform some of the literature on military ethics.

The foundations of society are more seriously shaken today than they were in Socrates’s time. Men who, reasonably enough, see no hope of preserving the ancestral order, are building new societies of one sort or another, from all of which certain fundamental values are absent. It seems worthwhile, then, to recall a man who under similar circumstances stood for the spirit of free inquiry, for the inviolability of the individual, with that lonely honesty and courage which are the badge of human dignity. — From the “Author’s Note” “Mask of Silenus deserves both reading and pondering...

Scientists throughout history, from Galileo to today's experts on climate change, have often had to contend with politics in their pursuit of knowledge. But in the Soviet Union, where the ruling elites embraced, patronized, and even fetishized science like never before, scientists lived their lives on a knife edge. The Soviet Union had the best-funded scientific establishment in history. Scientists were elevated as popular heroes and lavished with awards and privileges.

Post-modernity is the creative destruction that has shattered our present times into fragments. Post-modernism stood for everything modernism rejected: fun, exuberance, irresponsibility. But beneath its glitzy surface, post-modernism had a dirty secret: It was the fig leaf for a rapacious new kind of capitalism. It was also the forcing ground of the "post-truth", by means of which Western values got turned upside down. In his brilliant history of a dangerous idea, Stuart Jeffries tells a narrative that starts in the early 1970s and continues to today.

Jean-Paul Sartre is one of the undisputed giants of 20th-century philosophy. His intellectual writings popularizing existentialism, combined with his creative and artistic flair, have made him a legend of French thought. His tumultuous personal life - so inextricably bound up with his philosophical thinking - is a fascinating tale of love and lust, drug abuse, high-profile fallings-out and political and cultural rebellion.

A much-used word, karma is loosely understood as a system of checks and balances in our lives, of good actions and bad deeds, of good thoughts and bad intentions. A system that seemingly ensures that at the end of the day one gets what one deserves. This grossly oversimplified understanding has created many complexities in our lives and taken away from us the very fundamentals of the joy of living.

Cassique is a time travelling Fixer in AD 2853. It's his job to nip back into the past and fix problems which threaten to wipe out the world of the twenty-ninth century. But the longer Cassique spends in those past times, the more he comes to wonder if the docile, VR-obsessed people of his present would actually benefit from a reset. It's a dangerous thought, because that would mean taking a stand against Father, the world-running super-computer, and Father takes a very dim view of any form of rebellion. When Cassique teams up with a couple of relatively famous figures from the past, they ...

From the 1992 Rio Earth Summit to the 2009 Copenhagen Climate Conference there was a concerted international effort to stop climate change. Yet greenhouse gas emissions increased, atmospheric concentrations grew, and global warming became an observable fact of life.

Time is the most used word in the English language, its meaning so obvious, until we try to explain it. By listening to this book, you will learn how science has revealed the true nature of time, how to understand it, value it, and experience more of it.

Why did once-stone-faced animals evolve to be so emotionally expressive—to be us? The answer, as evolutionary neurobiologist Mark Changizi and mathematician Tim Barber reveal, is that emotional expressions are our first and most important language—one that allows us, as social animals, to engage in highly sophisticated communications and negotiations.
