Book Synopsis Cognitive Harmony by : Nicholas Rescher
Download or read book Cognitive Harmony written by Nicholas Rescher and published by University of Pittsburgh Pre. This book was released on 2010-06-15 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This novel approach to epistemological discourse explains the complex but crucial role that systematization plays-not just for the organization of what we know, but also for its validation. Cognitive Harmony argues for a new conception of the process philosophers generally call induction. Relying on the root definition of harmony, a coherent unification of component parts (systemic integrity) in such a way that the final object can successfully accomplish what it was meant to do (evaluative positivity), Rescher discusses the role of harmony in cognitive contexts, the history of cognitive harmony, and the various features it has in producing human knowledge. The book ends on the issue of philosophy and the sort of harmony required of philosophical systems.

Download or read book Heal Yourself written by Valentin Matcas and published by Valentin Leonard Matcas. This book was released on 1901 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout this book, you learn to maintain your health, prevent illnesses, heal yourself, and enhance your body and mind in order to become healthier, stronger, more capable, and full of energy and life. You learn to identify, approach, heal, and prevent dozens of distinct illnesses and related health issues, as diabetes, colds and flus, strokes, allergies, autism, bipolar disorder, obesity, cancer, depression, atherosclerosis, social problems, headaches, nausea, heart attacks, insomnia, arthritis, and much more. This is not mainstream medicine since it does not involve drugs, chemicals, or any medical intervention, it is not alternative medicine even if it involves only natural healing, but it is the actual manner of healing, it is your own, normal healing system. You learn everything that you need for your proper healing, good health, and excellent condition, through all facts about your mind and body, including how they function, stay healthy, and how they defend themselves against all illnesses. There is a difference between curing and healing. Because while curing refers to the superficial treatment of your symptoms, making you feel good as all drugs do, healing refers to the comprehensive treatment of your illness, including all main causes and resulting symptoms. Because in order to heal the actual illness, you have to follow the entire line of causality rendering you ill, up to the main reason triggering the actual illness, since that makes you sick. And if you do not heal or solve it, you cannot heal the entire illness, you cannot recover, and therefore you can never feel better. With the drugs prescribed by medicine interfering with your own recovery the entire time. You might have already noticed people healing themselves, yet it certainly takes more than a strong determination to be successful. The endeavor of healing yourself and maintaining your health continuously throughout life might seem complex, yet once you master it, it takes less time, less stress, and less effort to stay healthy and fit, while you may invest the rest of your time and effort on more important matters, as living your life.
Download or read book Virginia Woolf written by Lorraine Sim and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-11 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her timely contribution to revisionist approaches in modernist studies, Lorraine Sim offers a reading of Virginia Woolf's conception of ordinary experience as revealed in her fiction and nonfiction. Contending that Woolf's representations of everyday life both acknowledge and provide a challenge to characterizations of daily life as mundane, Sim shows how Woolf explores the potential of everyday experience as a site of personal meaning, social understanding, and ethical value. Sim's argument develops through readings of Woolf's literary representations of a subject's engagement with ordinary things like a mark on the wall, a table, or colour; Woolf's accounts of experiences that are both common and extraordinary such as physical pain or epiphanic 'moments of being'; and Woolf's analysis of the effect of new technologies, for example, motor-cars and the cinema, on contemporary understandings of the external world. Throughout, Sim places Woolf's views in the context of the philosophical and lay accounts of ordinary experience that dominated the cultural thought of her time. These include British Empiricism, Romanticism, Platonic thought and Post-Impressionism. In addition to drawing on the major novels, particularly The Voyage Out, Mrs. Dalloway, and To the Lighthouse, Sim focuses close attention on short stories such as 'The Mark on the Wall', 'Solid Objects', and 'Blue & Green'; nonfiction works, including 'On Being Ill', 'Evening over Sussex: Reflections in a Motor-car', and 'A Sketch of the Past'; and Woolf's diaries. Sim concludes with an account of Woolf's ontology of the ordinary, which illuminates the role of the everyday in Woolf's ethics.

Book Synopsis Normalizing and Treating Mental Illness by : Charles E. Williams, Ph.D.
Download or read book Normalizing and Treating Mental Illness written by Charles E. Williams, Ph.D. and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-03-23 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book argues that mental illness does not just happen. Whereas physical disabilities and developmental disabilities can occur at birth, mental illness and personality disorders come about within a complex process of human development involving socialization, child rearing and nurturance, genetic predisposition, societal norms, and environmental aspects as well as intrinsic internal phenomena (thought, mood, attitude) taking place in the individual. The book advocates for the open and unstigmatized recognition and treatment of emotional/psychiatric aberrations. It goes even further to advocate for the utilization of every resource possible to alleviate the travails of mental illness. The book plead is for tolerance, attainment of more knowledge about the subject, understanding, acceptance, objectivity, and an impartial unbiased way of thinking in dealing with mental illness as a part of life.. This book emphasizes that the mind, body, and spirit are renewed through appropriate therapeutic, pharmacological, and medical interventions. Psychotherapy is a very important part of this process. The book suggests that psychotherapy is not just “talk” but includes verbal release, advocacy, case management, assistance in emotional and social empowerment, and reciprocal interchange in an interactive process between the patient and the therapist. The use of strengths and resources is an important mechanism in the therapeutic process. The most prevalent disorders of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia are presented. Childhood disorders of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Impulse Control Disorder, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, Conduct Disorder and Autism are discussed in a chapter on children. Dual diagnoses of mental illness and substance abuse are also an area of attention. Other topics of focus are religion and religiosity in mental illness; the interstitiality of diagnoses, symptoms, and dynamics in mental illness; and the variables of human development in relation to personality and personality disorders. Music and its relationship to emotions is briefly mentioned. Techniques of intervention, including individual therapy, group therapy, case management, advocacy, and day treatment are also foci of discussion.
Book Synopsis Kant: A Guide for the Perplexed by : TK Seung
Download or read book Kant: A Guide for the Perplexed written by TK Seung and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2007-05-10 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Continuum's Guides for the Perplexed are clear, concise and accessible introductions to thinkers, writers and subjects that students and readers can find especially challenging. Concentrating specifically on what it is that makes the subject difficult to fathom, these books explain and explore key themes and ideas, guiding the reader towards a thorough understanding of demanding material. Immanuel Kant's influence and importance are difficult to exaggerate, his Three Critiques - of Pure Reason, of Practical Reason and of Judgment - standing as landmark works in the Western philosophical canon. Anyone interested in or studying philosophy will encounter Kant and hope to reach a detailed understanding of his work. Nevertheless, Kant is far from being an easy or straightforward subject for study. The ideas entailed in his work - and the connections between them - are complex, and the language in which they are expressed is frequently opaque. Kant: A Guide for the Perplexed is the ideal text for anyone finding it difficult to make headway with this key philosopher. It offers a detailed account of each of the three Critiques and the relationship between them. In so doing, it ranges over Kant's epistemology, ethics, political philosophy, aesthetics and philosophy of religion, and explores his legacy for German Idealism. Valuably, the book provides a way through Kant's often impenetrable prose. Written with students in mind, and tailored to meet their specific needs, this is a reliable, authoritative and illuminating guide to one of the central pillars of modern philosophy.
Book Synopsis The Human Behavior by : Valentin Matcas
Download or read book The Human Behavior written by Valentin Matcas and published by Valentin Leonard Matcas. This book was released on with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Your behavior consists of everything that you do in life, knowingly and unknowingly. Even more, your behavior represents and is a consequence of everything that you need, mean, and think throughout life. Yet it was so easy to manage your life if your behavior was so easy to define, because you always live your life alongside the rest of society, and always influenced by the rest of the world, in every manner. You are a social value, highly useful to others, and this is how others end up controlling you and your behavior according to their own needs and reasoning, with or without your consent. And this is how you behave and live your life in society, you influence and you are influenced by others continuously, according to your needs, beliefs, duties, capabilities, orders, and agendas. And you do so successively, continuously, and many times simultaneously throughout life and throughout society. Even more, your social behavior does not define you entirely, since your private, hidden behavior is distinct from your open, social one. You work hard to keep this shadow behavior unnoticed and at bay, but now when you consider it, you realize that it defines you more than everything else. This has always been the case, it can make life fun and exciting at times, yet it can become dangerous and expensive. Because it has become a continuously hidden need that you are forced to fulfill consistently, and many times, you would rather avoid this private behavior, if you only knew how. What happens is that the entire world lives in this major dissociation, because everybody seeks privacy and intimacy in life for various reasons, as everybody lives in the hiding most of the time, overwhelmed, guilty, and confused. And now, you seek to find out why you behave in this manner, you want to know what you can do in order to change and improve your behavior, you seek to know how to educate your children towards adopting a good behavior in life and in the world, and this is why you read this book. Throughout this book, you learn everything about the human behavior, everything necessary to help you control yourself, understand others, and develop to higher levels, along with everything necessary for you to help and educate others to behave well, while developing consistently to higher levels.

Book Synopsis The Future of Chinese Manufacturing by : TACHIA Chin
Download or read book The Future of Chinese Manufacturing written by TACHIA Chin and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2018-05-24 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Future of Chinese Manufacturing: Employment and Labour Challenges gives context and analysis on employment and labor issues in contemporary China, specifically relating to manufacturing industries. With one fifth of the world's workforce, China has taken advantage of its cheap labor to serve as the world's factory, achieving stunning growth for two decades. This book covers the appreciation of RMB, constant increases in minimum wage, shortages of skilled workers in China's labor-intensive manufacturing sector, and the fact that many large multinational corporations (MNCs) must cut costs, and are thus shifting their main production bases to other developing countries. Under such a tough situation, and coupled with the global economic slowdown, manufacturing employment in China confronts severe labor-related challenges, such as high turnover rates, recruitment difficulties for workers, and a series of high profile labor strikes and publicity concerning working conditions. - Integrates human capital and cultural theories - Analyzes looming labor unrest and related workforce issues in China through a unique context-specific lens - Explores the roles that Chinese institutions and culture play in resolving problems related to these issues
Book Synopsis On the Ugly by : Lars Aagaard-Mogensen
Download or read book On the Ugly written by Lars Aagaard-Mogensen and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-06-11 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study offers an original and innovative collection of fresh approaches to the investigation of the concept of ugliness. It is divided into three parts: the idea of ugliness; Kantian conceptions of the ugly; and ugliness and art. The papers in all three sections deal with problems in the way that aesthetics has understood the concept of the ugly, in aesthetic experience, in fine art, and in contrast with the beautiful. These are new papers from a range of scholars from diverse philosophical backgrounds, and use the most recent literature in their areas of expertise. There is no other book available that collects the latest research in this field, and, as such, it will be a key contribution to recent and growing theoretical interest in the place of the ugly in aesthetics.
Book Synopsis An Integrative Model of Moral Deliberation by : J. Jeffrey Tillman
Download or read book An Integrative Model of Moral Deliberation written by J. Jeffrey Tillman and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-27 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Integrative Model of Moral Deliberation maintains that current models of moral deliberation do not effectively deal with contemporary moral complexity because they are based on an inadequate theory of moral cognition. Drawing on research in neuroscience, evolutionary psychology, social theory, and dual process cognitive theory and on the work of William James, this book develops a theory of moral cognition which provides a major role for aesthetic sensibilities and upon this theory develops a robust model of moral deliberation. This model portrays moral deliberation as a back and forth movement between intuitive and analytic cognitions, which constructs narrative scenarios and then assesses and revises them according to aesthetic sensibilities.
