Book excerpt: [From the back cover] Homeworlds is a game invented by John Cooper in 2001 and played with Looney Pyramids invented by Andrew Looney. -- As exotic as this sounds, Homeworlds, and its 2-player version called Binary Homeworlds, is a deep abstract strategy game with a game tree more complex than Go. It features a 4X Space Theme that requires eXpanding, eXploring, eXploiting, and eXterminating. You start with a Homeworld of two stars, and build a fleet of spaceships with which you are going to discover other starsystems to find your way to your opponent's Homeworld, which you will ultimately invade, attack, and destroy. -- In this volume, you'll find all known rule variants of the classic game, as it developed over 20 years, all clearly explained and ordered into a comprehensive whole. Furthermore, it will introduce you to many variants, including multi-player variants, and game-mechanics variants, that can all be combined in various ways. -- Variants are a way to wrap your mind around the many aspects of the game, as they force you to consider unfamiliar alternatives. If nothing more than the pure enjoyment of experimentation, your mind gets a workout. -- To even the battlefield between a veteran and a cadet, the author has included many new ways of handicapping. It allows two players of different experience levels to play an even game, making it challenging for both. -- Homeworlds has a growing player base and can also be played online. This volume tries to accommodate a growing demand for accuracy in the rules, sample games, variety, and references. -- Do you have an appetite for more brain-burning games? Look out for the follow-up by the same author, describing 10+ games playable with a Homeworlds set that will satisfy young (8+) and old.

Book excerpt: How would you react to the sudden realization of where death might actually lead? At fifty-nine, George Harvey, a retired teacher, makes just this discoveryand his life changes in ways he could never have imagined. George finds himself propelled on a headlong journey to another world, where he searches for the truth. Though they are strangers at first, George joins forces with a single mother and two young men, each seeking their own truth. With no easy answers, George, Luba, Philip, and Alyosha experience what seems impossible. Now they must decide if what they have learned is not just realbut inevitable. Each answer inspires more questions, and these four apparent survivors of death must now decide for themselves: When does life really end? Can broken lives ever be reconnected and restored? How dangerous are our beliefs and our faith? Are we destined to be put on trial at some time and place in the cosmos? Can our darkest fears ever be overcome or our most cherished dreams realized? Is there only one path after death? What does time really mean? Their search for truth challenges everything they once believed about life, deathand what may follow.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the worldwide cultural diffusion, which, along with economic globalization, is ever widening the boundaries of an individual and a group's homeworld as alien cultures are absorbed into each other. This process is called 'the mundialization of home.' The spherical movement of capital, goods, technology, and workforce across national borders is also accompanied by spread of ideas, beliefs, values, and customs among diverse cultures. And, as people in newly emerging market societies are being brought to self-awareness as individual citizens, they have begun to address issues of individual freedom, social justice, human rights, global environmental change, and civil society.

This book was released on 2010-06-16 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building upon Husserl’s challenge to oppositions such as those between form and content and between constituting and constituted, The Concept of Passivity in Husserl’s Phenomenology construes activity and passivity not as reciprocally exclusive terms but as mutually dependent moments of acts of consciousness. The book outlines the contribution of passivity to the constitution of phenomena as diverse as temporal syntheses, perceptual associations, memory fulfillment and cross-cultural communication. The detailed study of the phenomena of affection, forgetting, habitus and translation sets out a distinction between three meanings of passivity: receptivity, sedimentation or inactuality and alienation. Husserl’s texts are interpreted as defending the idea that cultural crises are not brought to a close by replacing passivity with activity but by having more of both.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is 2065, and a year has passed since the people of Earth formally established relations with several extraterrestrial races. Appearances suggest that a new age of peace, economic prosperity, and enlightenment has begun. One group of aliens in particular, the Greys, are an advanced and peaceful race. Human journalist C. A. Wyatt is in the process of writing a book about the Greys’ odyssey from their home world, planet Zeta, to Earth and their crash landing near Roswell, New Mexico, in 1947. Their journey begins with the invasion of Zeta in 1944 by an aggressive alien species called Reptoids, just as the Greys’ spaceship, Zeta’s Hope, is about to be launched on an expedition to the uninhabited planet of Avalonia with fifty colonists—made up of both Greys and their human-like allies from planet Amigo. As crew of the ship voyages to various planets, they face a variety of problems, both internal and external, but eventually they set out to meet the humans of Earth, hoping for form a new alliance. But when those plans go awry, the fates of the Greys and of humanity will change forever. In this science fiction novel, set in 2065, aliens known as Greys recall their journey to Earth in the 1940s through interviews with a human journalist.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a time when many philosophers have concluded that Husserl's philosophy is exhausted, but when alternatives appear to be exhausted as well, Anthony J. Steinbock presents an innovative approach to Husserlian phenomenology. His systematic study of the problems and themes of a generative phenomenology, normality and abnormality, and sociohistorical concepts of homeworld and alienworld, and the steps he takes toward developing such a generative phenomenology, open new doors for a phenomenology of the social world, while casting new light on work done by Husserl himself and by many philosopher working more or less in a Husserlian vein. Both critique and an appropriation of a large and diverse body of work, Home and Beyond is a major contribution to contemporary Husserl scholarship.

Book excerpt: An impassioned look at games and game design that offers the most ambitious framework for understanding them to date. As pop culture, games are as important as film or television—but game design has yet to develop a theoretical framework or critical vocabulary. In Rules of Play Katie Salen and Eric Zimmerman present a much-needed primer for this emerging field. They offer a unified model for looking at all kinds of games, from board games and sports to computer and video games. As active participants in game culture, the authors have written Rules of Play as a catalyst for innovation, filled with new concepts, strategies, and methodologies for creating and understanding games. Building an aesthetics of interactive systems, Salen and Zimmerman define core concepts like "play," "design," and "interactivity." They look at games through a series of eighteen "game design schemas," or conceptual frameworks, including games as systems of emergence and information, as contexts for social play, as a storytelling medium, and as sites of cultural resistance. Written for game scholars, game developers, and interactive designers, Rules of Play is a textbook, reference book, and theoretical guide. It is the first comprehensive attempt to establish a solid theoretical framework for the emerging discipline of game design.

Book excerpt: Mobile Lifeworlds illustrates how the imaginaries and ideals of Western travellers, especially those of untouched nature and spiritual enlightenment, are consistent with media representations of the Himalayan region, romanticism and modernity at large. Blending tourism and pilgrimage, travel across Nepal, Tibet, Bhutan, and Northern India is often inspired and oriented by a search for authenticity, adventure and Otherness. Such valued ideals are shown, however, to be contested by the very forces and configurations that enable global mobility. The role ubiquitous media and mobile technologies now play in framing travel experiences are explored, revealing a situation in which actors are neither here nor there, but increasingly are ‘inter-placed’ across planetary landscapes. Beyond institutionalised religious contexts and the visiting of sacred sites, the author shows how a secular religiosity manifests in practical, bodily encounters with foreign environments. This book is unique in that it draws on a dynamic and innovative set of disciplinary and theoretical perspectives, especially phenomenology, the mobilities paradigm and philosophical anthropology. The volume breaks fresh ground in pilgrimage, tourism and travel studies by unfolding the complex relationships between the virtual, imaginary and corporeal dynamics of contemporary mobile lifeworlds.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning a new series from a military science fiction master with over 3 million books in print. A young hero comes of age in the crucible of war and galactic struggle. When Allen Allenson, scion of a noble family that has fallen on hard times, gets a mission to roust the power-hungry Terrans from a "wild" star sector where they're encroaching, he jumps at the chance to show his individual worth, improve his family's fortunes¾and gather enough lucre to make a good marriage. But the wily Terrans are not so easily persuaded by a young colonial they think of as a "rube." Worse, "Riders"¾the being who naturally ply the wilderness between the stars, are playing their own deadly political games¾against the Terrans, against the colonials, and against one young greenhorn commander in particular: naf young Allen, whom they figure they can manipulate to do their bidding. The one thing nobody has counted on is the fact that Allen, while young and inexperienced, happens to be a hero in the making much to his own amazement.
