Book Synopsis The Absolute Truth And Other Uncertainties by : Fairfield Goodale
Download or read book The Absolute Truth And Other Uncertainties written by Fairfield Goodale and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005-08 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "We were told that everything in the Buchenwald camp was as it had been on the day of liberation-torture devices, gallows, crematoria containing charred human remains, gas chambers, piles of teeth with gold extracted, lamp shades of tattooed human skin-except that the diet and living conditions of the current population of 20,000 prisoners were a bit improved, and they were free within the barbed wire compound to move wherever they were physically able to with their slow, torturous, tiny-stepped shuffle. Their striped uniforms, bearing yellow stars and sometimes pinkish insignia, were baggy and hung in tatters from skeleton frames, yet each prisoner's appearance and demeanor displayed every vestige of dignity he could muster. No hangdogs, no whimpering, no complaining, no visible tears. They were beyond that, and above it." All of the author's proceeds from the sale of The Absolute Truth And Other Uncertainties-A Remembrance will be donated to the Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital Foundation, Santa Barbara, California.
Book Synopsis Our Uncertain World by : Leslie Sawin
Download or read book Our Uncertain World written by Leslie Sawin and published by Chiron Publications. This book was released on 2023-12-20 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in times of uncertainty and anxiety. In these times, how can we best navigate our unknowns? Our Uncertain World answers that question through a Jungian prism. Carl Jung’s theory has helped many people through difficult times. Jungian perspectives facilitate such challenging navigation by not simplifying complexity but rather by finding the meaningful through-lines that guide the individual toward individuation even in the darkest of times. Using Jung’s unique multi-dimensional approach, this book offers insights and provides answers to questions about life in a state of three-dimensional flux. Our Uncertain World was born from the premise that we are in a period of ongoing change. The interlocking crises of COVID, national polarization, environmental disaster, and international war can undermine or even destroy the symbols, rituals, and mental structures that give meaning and coherence to our lives. These crises are explored in depth In the book’s three sections, Living with Personal Uncertainty over the Long Term, Social Turmoil: A Moment of Social change for Our Community and Our Nation, and Challenges Facing Our World: Grappling with the Environment, The Pandemic and War. The authors of this book accompany the reader through the current challenges we face and examine new ways of adjusting to the existing condition of protracted uncertainty. The book encourages the reader to articulate their own challenges and develop their own language to write, speak, and live within the reality of uncertain times. Our Uncertain World provides tools for individuals and groups to formulate new perspectives and life strategies for the current reality.

Download or read book Saving Truth written by Abdu Murray and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can Christians defend truth and clarity to a world that rejects both? Increasingly, Western culture embraces confusion as a virtue and decries certainty as a sin. Those who are confused about sexuality and identity are viewed as heroes. Those who are confused about morality are progressive pioneers. Those who are confused about spirituality are praised as tolerant. Conversely, those who express certainty about any of these issues are seen as bigoted, oppressive, arrogant, or intolerant. This cultural phenomenon led the compilers of the Oxford English Dictionary to name "post-truth" their word of the year in 2016. It's popularity and relevance has only increased since then. By accurately describing the Culture of Confusion and how it has affected our society, author Abdu Murray seeks to awaken Westerners to the plight we find ourselves in. He also challenges Christians to consider how they have played a part in fostering the Culture of Confusion through bad arguments, unwise labeling, and emotional attacks. Ultimately, Saving Truth provides arguments from a Christian perspective for the foundations of truth and how those foundations impart clarity to the biggest topics of human existence: Freedom. Human dignity. Sexuality, Gender, and Identity. Science and Faith. Religious pluralism and Morality. For those enmeshed in the culture of confusion, Saving Truth offers a way to untangle oneself and find hope in the clarity that Christ offers.

Book Synopsis A Theory of Uncertainty by : Andreas Klinke
Download or read book A Theory of Uncertainty written by Andreas Klinke and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-08-02 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using sources from classical to modern that broach the phenomenon of uncertainty and its relation to risk, this book creates a novel approach to the recognized but theoretically often unattended issue of uncertainty. Andreas Klinke develops a new, general theory of uncertainty that provides a taxonomy of categories which are deduced from a critical inventory in philosophy, social and natural sciences, and risk research. Comprising six parts, the philosophical grounding of uncertainty sets the stage for the following philosophical and social scientific accounts and explanation of four distinctive guises of uncertainty that form a taxonomic notion and rationale: ontological, epistemological, linguistic-communicative, and teleological uncertainty. The theoretical-conceptual rumination provides a complex, differentiated view of the anatomy of uncertainty and an understanding that can be used in further theoretical and empirical research, as well as socio-political practice. The latter is delineated in the final part addressing the societal domestication of uncertainty. This book will be of great interest to scholars and students in philosophy, social and natural sciences, risk research, as well as inter- and transdisciplinary science fields.

Book Synopsis EU Environmental Principles and Scientific Uncertainty before National Courts by : Mariolina Eliantonio
Download or read book EU Environmental Principles and Scientific Uncertainty before National Courts written by Mariolina Eliantonio and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2023-04-20 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comparative book explores the dynamics driving how courts across Europe and beyond understand and analyse scientific information in nature conservation. The Habitats and the Birds Directives-the core of EU nature conservation law-are usually seen as the most 'uniform' parts of EU environmental law. This book analyses the case law from 11 current and former EU Member States' courts and explores the dynamics of how, and crucially why, their understandings of scientific uncertainty on the one hand, and EU environmental principles on the other, vary. The courts' scope and depth of review, access to scientific knowledge, and scientific literacy all influence such decisions-as does their interpretation of norms and principles. How have the courts evaluated scientific evidence, encompassing its essential uncertainties? This book answers this and many more questions pertinent to EU environmental law, comparative environmental law, administrative law, and STS studies. Co-edited by experienced leaders in the field, and with outstanding contributors, this book is an essential guide to the dynamics of nature conservation law.

Book Synopsis Modeling Uncertainty with Fuzzy Logic by : Asli Celikyilmaz
Download or read book Modeling Uncertainty with Fuzzy Logic written by Asli Celikyilmaz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-04-08 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world we live in is pervaded with uncertainty and imprecision. Is it likely to rain this afternoon? Should I take an umbrella with me? Will I be able to find parking near the campus? Should I go by bus? Such simple questions are a c- mon occurrence in our daily lives. Less simple examples: What is the probability that the price of oil will rise sharply in the near future? Should I buy Chevron stock? What are the chances that a bailout of GM, Ford and Chrysler will not s- ceed? What will be the consequences? Note that the examples in question involve both uncertainty and imprecision. In the real world, this is the norm rather than exception. There is a deep-seated tradition in science of employing probability theory, and only probability theory, to deal with uncertainty and imprecision. The mon- oly of probability theory came to an end when fuzzy logic made its debut. H- ever, this is by no means a widely accepted view. The belief persists, especially within the probability community, that probability theory is all that is needed to deal with uncertainty. To quote a prominent Bayesian, Professor Dennis Lindley, “The only satisfactory description of uncertainty is probability.
Book Synopsis The Certainty of Uncertainty by : Mark Schaefer
Download or read book The Certainty of Uncertainty written by Mark Schaefer and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-08-23 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world is full of people who are very certain—in politics, in religion, in all manner of things. In addition, political, religious, and social organizations are marketing certainty as a cure all to all life’s problems. But is such certainty possible? Or even good? The Certainty of Uncertainty explores the question of certainty by looking at the reasons human beings crave certainty and the religious responses we frequently fashion to help meet that need. The book takes an in-depth view of religion, language, our senses, our science, and our world to explore the inescapable uncertainties they reveal. We find that the certainty we crave does not exist. As we reflect on the unavoidable uncertainties in our world, we come to understand that letting go of certainty is not only necessary, it’s beneficial. For, in embracing doubt and uncertainty, we find a more meaningful and courageous religious faith, a deeper encounter with mystery, and a way to build strong relationships across religious and philosophical lines. In The Certainty of Uncertainty, we see that embracing our belief systems with humility and uncertainty can be transformative for ourselves and for our world.
