Pursuing the mystery, they learn the fabric of space-time is somehow being artificially manipulated and changed.After watching a brutal murder connected to the phenomenon, Marshall makes contact with a "Time Sculptor" named Sixtus Maras, who reveals that agents populate history and make small adjustments in the timeline for the benefit of the ruling elites in the future. When Marshall explains that these changes are creating infinite multiple realities buried in the subconscious that eventually drive people to insanity, Sixtus knows they must determine where a massive time change event is going to take place. Even if they find its location, should they intervene or allow it to play out?They know all too well that the wrong decision carries catastrophic consequences.

Book Synopsis Following Reason by : Mark Manolopoulos
Download or read book Following Reason written by Mark Manolopoulos and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-03-01 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout history, humanity has regularly followed anti-rational figures and forces: demagogic rulers, perverted deities, exploitative economic systems, and so on. Such leadership and followership have wrought all kinds of oppression and conflict. What if this pattern could be altered? What if society were led by Reason instead? Prompted by Cicero’s exhortation to "follow reason as leader as though it were a god", Following Reason: A Theory and Strategy for Rational Leadership explores this intriguing and potentially transformative possibility. Manolopoulos uniquely blends leadership psychology with a deep understanding of philosophical reasoning theory to show how leaders can bravely reimagine and reconstruct society. The book retraces leadership mis-steps in history, and proposes a more "logicentric" theory of leadership, built on compelling philosophical axioms and arguments. Following Reason emphasizes the weight of philosophy and cognition in leadership, and advocates for a diverse network that can create, uphold, and implement a blueprint for a better global society. This wide-ranging and timely book is ideal for leadership, management, and philosophy students at undergraduate and graduate levels.

Book Synopsis Market Insanity by : Michael Taillard
Download or read book Market Insanity written by Michael Taillard and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2018-03-06 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Market Insanity: A Brief Guide to Diagnosing the Madness in the Stock Market is an engaging and accessible primer which applies modern behavioral finance to equity markets. It helps readers understand how logical investment decisions can be betrayed by what Taillard calls "the insanity," all those behavioral quirks which cause us to achieve less than optimal utility. The book describes how limited information, habit, the rules of the game, asymmetric information and ego blend together in potentially toxic ways in market environments, thus creating bubbles, stock runs, and more prosaically, even ‘normal’ equity prices. In addition, the book discusses the implications of these behaviors in-depth. In so doing, it helps the reader to not only predict the madness within equity markets, but also helps them develop solutions that address and mitigate outcomes. Provides detailed and accurate descriptions of the most relevant behavioral anomalies for finance Entertainingly written by a veteran consultant with 15+ years experience helping companies explain anomalous finance behavior in non-economic language Shows how educated finance professionals can use behavioral insights to help build finance solutions Addresses the implications for equity markets in deviations from rationality paradigms Draws on a vast range of literature in explaining anomalous behavior, including economic psychology, economic psychology, evolutionary psychology, anthropology and animal behavior

Book Synopsis Hegel's Theory of Madness by : Daniel Berthold-Bond
Download or read book Hegel's Theory of Madness written by Daniel Berthold-Bond and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1995-01-01 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows how an understanding of the nature and role of insanity in Hegel's writing provides intriguing new points of access to many of the central themes of his larger philosophic project. Berthold-Bond situates Hegel's theory of madness within the history of psychiatric practice during the great reform period at the turn of the eighteenth century, and shows how Hegel developed a middle path between the stridently opposed camps of "empirical" and "romantic" medicine, and of "somatic" and "psychical" practitioners. A key point of the book is to show that Hegel does not conceive of madness and health as strictly opposing states, but as kindred phenomena sharing many of the same underlying mental structures and strategies, so that the ontologies of insanity and rationality involve a mutually illuminating, mirroring relation. Hegel's theory is tested against the critiques of the institution of psychiatry and the very concept of madness by such influential twentieth-century authors as Michel Foucault and Thomas Szasz, and defended as offering a genuinely reconciling position in the contemporary debate between the "social labeling" and "medical" models of mental illness.

Book Synopsis The Suicide Society by : William Brennan Knight
Download or read book The Suicide Society written by William Brennan Knight and published by Kwb Enterprises. This book was released on 2015-03-24 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world continues to decay in a methodical, mystifying way. Values erode, conflicts deepen, and society is desensitized to the brutal and relentless suffering of others. On both a global and personal basis, we know it's true, but nothing can be done to stop it. How did it come to this? After an unsuccessful suicide attempt, Zach Randall, a self-absorbed accountant, begins to experience disturbing visions of other people in the act of taking their own lives. Initially dismissing the incidents as mere hallucinations, he slowly begins to suspect there is meaning hidden within each episode. Struggling in the midst of the most recent punishing vision, Zach is able to see a name and address on a discarded envelop close to the latest dying wretch. After enlisting the aid of his friend and support group leader, Jarad Anston, Randall discovers that the people in his visions are real, and he is voyeur who watches their last moments on earth. Certain that the visions are mirroring reality, Randall tries desperately to find more information as he is drawn into the grey mists of illusion, hoping that he might somehow intervene and save a doomed soul. However, there is an unexpected episodic encounter with someone-no something-that has its own horrific designs on those about to commit the final act. A detective in Seattle, a couple street-wise cops in Chicago and Zach Randall begin to put the pieces together to reveal a conspiracy of supernatural horror that will threaten the foundation of humanity. At its source is the ultimate evil; a malevolence that defies explanation. A Horror Thriller! The Suicide Society evolves as a story of pain, manipulation and a carefully devised plan to infiltrate every aspect of society for the purpose of promoting hate, chaos and ultimate destruction. Randall and his associates race to expose the forces that relentlessly drive the world closer to a global catastrophe.
Book Synopsis Rational Metaphysics: Affectance Ontology by : James S. Saint
Download or read book Rational Metaphysics: Affectance Ontology written by James S. Saint and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2019-05-31 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "RM covers many ontologies. AO is merely the first. RM is a method for creating understandings. AO is a "Unified Field Theory" or "Theory of Everything". First I had to resolve the true nature of reality itself. That became my "RM:AO". But to know the construct of reality is insufficient in itself. The normal state of reality is entropy, and it takes a special effort to prevent anything from being merely churned up and lost through time. That has been the focus of religion for thousands of years and the whole purpose of their rituals and morals. They have been fighting entropy. Once I knew how reality functions, the task became one of what to do about it: "How could people be saved from natural entropy, especially in a world so passionately lusting for change?" What I came to call, "Social Anentropic Molecularisation (SAM)" was my answer to that question." James S. Saint, June 2014
