Book Description
Selecting the right A levels is more important than ever in helping you shape your future path, whether through securing a place at your ideal university, or starting out on your chosen career. But with such a huge variety of subject options and combinations on offer, where do you begin and indeed what are the 'right' choices? In truth, what's 'right' is what's best for you, and any decisions you make about your future should therefore be informed and personal to you, to ensure you find the perfect match to suit your own individual interests, skills and learning style. Giving you all the knowledge you need at your fingertips to support you in making these important decisions, Choose the Right A levels is your one-stop source of practical information, answering key questions such as: What does the course outline look like and how is the subject assessed? What key skills does the subject draw on and develop? Which subjects are preferred or required for certain degree courses and careers? What will I need at GCSE to study the subject and how does the subject compare to GCSE? What subjects combine well together? This comprehensive and impartial guide also features comparative data on national pass rates for each subject, and insightful student case studies on what did and didn't work well for others. Written by an expert Careers Adviser, and laid out in a simple format for ease of use, this accessible guide is your essential aid to navigating the wide range of subject options available and making the best choices for you and your future.

Book Description
The notion of reduction continues to play a key role in philosophy of mind and philosophy of cognitive science. Supporters of reductionism claim that psychological properties or explanations reduce to neural properties or explanations, while antireductionists claim that such reductions are not possible. In this book, I apply recent developments in philosophy of science, particularly the mechanistic explanation paradigm and the interventionist theory of causation, to reassess the traditional approaches to reduction in philosophy of mind. I then elaborate and defend a pluralistic framework for philosophy of mind, and show how reductionist ideas can be incorporated into it. This leads to a novel synthesis of pluralism and reductionism that I call pluralistic physicalism.

Book Description
"Unique in its coverage of all aspects of modern particle physics, this textbook provides a clear connection between the theory and recent experimental results, including the discovery of the Higgs boson at CERN. It provides a comprehensive and self-contained description of the Standard Model of particle physics suitable for upper-level undergraduate students and graduate students studying experimental particle physics. Physical theory is introduced in a straightforward manner with full mathematical derivations throughout. Fully-worked examples enable students to link the mathematical theory to results from modern particle physics experiments. End-of-chapter exercises, graded by difficulty, provide students with a deeper understanding of the subject. Online resources available at www.cambridge.org/MPP feature password-protected fully-worked solutions to problems for instructors, numerical solutions and hints to the problems for students and PowerPoint slides and JPEGs of figures from the book"--

Book Description
Philosophers have gradually accepted axiology as one branch of philosophy. As a basic category belonging to axiology and philosophy, "value" is the general abstraction of concrete value formation in various fields including utility, ethics and appreciation of the beauty. The problem of value is essentially a problem of historical activities of practice in human society. The axiology based on the scientific practice view insists on the principle of unification between theory and practice, truth and value. In research of axiology, the relation between subjectivity and objectivity of values is a problem that must be solved in the first place. The modern conversation of value philosophy is the academic and practical demands of the value philosophy research in China. Value evaluation is an important part of the axiology. In order to deepen the research of value philosophy and to promote the development of current value philosophy, we must have scientific mode of thinking suitable for the nature of value. It is the base of value relation, the origin of value needs, the process of value creation and actualization and the fundamental way to proving ones value as a human being.
