Book Description
~THE FIRST AND LAST KING SERIES~ Eschatological novels of beauty and sensitivity! The setting of a 21st Century university medical center, for scientific and technological research, catapults the reader into a supernatural journey from where C.S. Lewis ended his prophetic warnings in his apocalyptic space trilogy, THAT HIDEOUS STRENGTH. * Begin by understanding there is a universal plot to obliterate the image of God in the human. That’s the synopsis of this fictional account, but it is also the factual summary for life on our own planet. * Humankind, on the verge of extinction, pushed over the threshold of technological evolution, had a choice of everlasting life promised by two rival kings. The global population had entered a spiraling future by accepting a radical, interconnected surveillance state – a social, economic, technologic and scientific experiment regulating their behavior, forcing a segmentation and inevitable polarization of the Homo sapiens. * Anderson is the author of three previous novels, a collection read as a series, though each effectively stand alone: ELIZEUM STRIVING, journal one, PARADOX, THE NORM follows, and book three, A HAVEN NO LONGER.

Corrupt Cultures: Cheating In Science And Society
Author: Roy Yorke Calne
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 1786345625
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 120
Book Description
This book is concerned with cheating in Science and the harm that it does, concentrating on three disasters in cell culture, which caused international concern and personal tragedy for the perpetrators. There is an overview of plant, animal and human cheating, providing a background to the focus on Science. This demands a special form of truth in that claims need to be substantiated by repetition in independent laboratories to confirm that the claims work. The nature of originality is examined in art and Science.An attempt has been made to determine the background and motives for cheating in Science in the certain knowledge that it will be unmasked leading to scandal.Advice is given to the young Scientist and suggestions have been made as to how fraud in Science could be reduced by more regulated supervision. There is a need to revise the regulations and assessment of claims of originality and the whole review process of journals to avoid publishing fake data.This text is unusual in focusing on three well-documented cases. The data should not have been published in high impact journals if more rigorous review had been made. Journals should require independent repetition of claims that seem to be 'too good to be true'. This little book should be of considerable interest to young scientists, historians of science and editors of scientific journals. The general reader might find it fascinating to learn how science works or does not work.

What Do the Five Points of Calvinism Really Mean? Many have heard of Reformed theology, but may not be certain what it is. Some references to it have been positive, some negative.

The Oxford Handbook of Kant
Author:
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0192596780
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 865
Book Description
Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) is a towering figure of modern Western philosophy, someone whose thought continues to exert an influence across all areas of the discipline. His work is characterized by both breadth and unity: he writes powerfully about mind, epistemology, metaphysics, logic, mathematics, natural science, ethics, politics, aesthetics, education, and more. And across those areas, his work is concerned with defending a view of human beings and their place in nature according to which our own reason enables us to discover and uphold the laws of nature and freedomthat is, to think for ourselves. The Oxford Handbook of Kant provides an up-to-date account of recent scholarship on Kant's philosophy, taking in all areas of his writings. It will be essential reading for students and researchers who want to think for themselves about the topics he wrote with such insight. The individual chapters to this Handbook each provide a scholarly analysis and assessment of some aspect of Kant's thought, and the collection ranges across all the areas to which Kant contributed. It collectively presents a picture of where the study of Kant's philosophy finds itself at this point in the twenty-first century.
