Download or read book Passing Time written by W.D. Ehrhart and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2016-01-20 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From 1969 to 1974 Ehrhart was just Passing Time. His reentry into the "world" began with his enrollment as a 21-year-old freshman (and token Vietnam vet) at Swarthmore College. At first simply trying to bury his past, Ehrhart slowly if inexorably came to understand what happened to him, and why, in Vietnam. Interspersed are flash-backs to the war itself. It is the story of political--and personal--awakening. As the war dragged on, the United States' deceitful involvement and its perpetuation of fallacies and lies about the war's conduct forced Ehrhart to confront his own feelings about his government, country, and self. Throughout, the reader shares with Ehrhart his odyssey through naivete, growing awareness, angry withdrawal and, finally, a measure of peace.

Book Synopsis Objective Becoming by : Bradford Skow
Download or read book Objective Becoming written by Bradford Skow and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bradford Skow presents an original defense of the 'block universe' theory of time, often said to be a theory according to which time does not pass. Along the way, he provides in-depth discussions of alternative theories of time, including those in which there is 'robust passage' of time or 'objective becoming': presentism, the moving spotlight theory of time, the growing block theory of time, and the 'branching time' theory of time. Skow explains why the moving spotlight theory is the best of these arguments, and rebuts several popular arguments against the thesis that time passes. He surveys the problems that the special theory of relativity has been thought to raise for objective becoming, and suggests ways in which fans of objective becoming may reconcile their view with relativistic physics. The last third of the book aims to clarify and evaluate the argument that we should believe that time passes because, somehow, the passage of time is given to us in experience. He isolates three separate arguments this idea suggests, and explains why they fail.

Book Synopsis He's Not That Interested, He's Just Passing Time by : Bruce Bryans

This book was released on 2015-11-12 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to Tell if a Man Wants You for a Lifetime or Only for the Moment Men don''t really have "commitment issues." At least, not in the way most women think men do. When a man tells you he has "commitment issues", there''s a good chance that what he REALLY means is he''s not that interested in you and is just using you to pass time with until he meets someone "better." When a man isn''t interested in a relationship with you, his "commitment issues" are nothing more than an excuse to waste your time and reap the benefits of your decision to stay with him in order to "see where this thing goes." It''s at this point where many women make one of the worse dating decisions possible, as they choose to remain with a half-interested man, hoping that over time they''ll be able to "lull" him into a serious commitment. The Biggest Reason Why Men Pull Away and Suddenly Lose Interest Women often wonder why men pull away and lose interest in a blossoming romance without so much as a warning. Though there could be a ton of reasons why a man might pull away, the most common reason for his loss of interest is this: he wasn''t THAT interested in you to begin with. In general, even though men are more than able to commit to a woman once certain conditions in their life are met, they will not directly inform you when you''re not the right girl for them or that now isn''t the right time for them to take a woman seriously. And because men are far more opportunistic when it comes to dating, a lot of guys won''t hesitate to take advantage of a dating situation that reaps high rewards with as little effort possible. How to Avoid Dating Men Who Will Keep You Unloved and Perpetually Unclaimed No matter which way you look at it, even though men don''t really have commitment issues, they don''t find it necessary or in their best interest to inform a woman when she''s nothing more than a beautiful distraction, a way to earn the respect of his peers, or just a target to sharpen his seduction skills so that he''ll be primed and ready when a "better" woman comes along. This is the ugly truth, but there''s hope. In this book, you''ll get an inside look at how a man thinks and interacts with a woman when he''s not that interested in her. This sort of male behavior is actually easy to spot IF you know what to look for. It''s extremely difficult for a man to waste your time and treat you like a short-term plaything without exhibiting certain unmistakable behaviors that clearly communicate that he''s trying to keep you interested...but unclaimed. Here''s what you''re going to learn inside: The seductive language men use when they want to discourage you from wanting a COMMITTED relationship. How quickly learning this ONE thing about him can tell you if he''s "unequipped" to handle a serious relationship. The pattern in a man''s dating history that IMMEDIATELY reveals if he''s a commitment-phobic time waster. How to avoid being confused by men who might love you tenderly, but would NEVER make you their girlfriend. How to stop losing sleep wondering "DOES HE LIKE ME?" and get him to either take you seriously or take a hike! How observing this simple behavior reveals if he thinks you''re "THE ONE" or just "Some One" to pass time with until he finds his Ms. Right. The relationship red flags for recognizing a DEAD ON ARRIVAL romance so you don''t end up wasting your time. How to tell if a man is still secretly IN LOVE with his ex and is only one sad love song away from abandoning YOU for HER. And much, much more... Would You Like to Know More? Get started right away and discover how to tell if a man desperately wants you or if he''s just not that into you. Scroll to the top of the page and select the ''buy button'' now.

Book Synopsis Passing the Time by : Zachary Chastain
Download or read book Passing the Time written by Zachary Chastain and published by . This book was released on 2009-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a six-day workweek, long hours on the job, and the hard labor required to keep house, leisure time was precious in the 1800s. Without recorded music, radio, movies, TV, video games, or the Internet, Americans had to make their own fun, and most of it was simple and very low tech-singing around the family piano, visiting with neighbors, or picnicking in the woods. In the bigger towns and cities, theaters offered live, professional entertainment ranging from classic plays to raucous minstrel shows. In the smaller towns and rural areas, people waited anxiously for those few times a year when a traveling show or circus might come through the area. As the 1800s progressed, leisure time and economic resources increased for many Americans and a more sophisticated public demanded new and more exciting amusements. Read all about America at play in the 1800s! Book jacket.
