Book Description
This volume contains ten new essays focused on the exploration and articulation of a narrative that considers the notion of order within medieval and modern philosophy—its various kinds (natural, moral, divine, and human), the different ways in which each is conceived, and the diverse dependency relations that are thought to obtain among them. Descartes, with the help of others, brought about an important shift in what was understood by the order of nature by placing laws of nature at the foundation of his natural philosophy. Vigorous debate then ensued about the proper formulation of the laws of nature and the moral law, about whether such laws can be justified, and if so, how-through some aspect of the divine order or through human beings-and about what consequences these laws have for human beings and the moral and divine orders. That is, philosophers of the period were thinking through what the order of nature consists in and how to understand its relations to the divine, human, and moral orders. No two major philosophers in the modern period took exactly the same stance on these issues, but these issues are clearly central to their thought. The Divine Order, the Human Order, and the Order of Nature is devoted to investigating their positions from a vantage point that has the potential to combine metaphysical, epistemological, scientific, and moral considerations into a single narrative.

Book Description
Never before have the master numbers - 11, 22, 33, through 99 - been examined in such depth and detail. Faith Javane, one of the most respected numerologists in the country, reveals the significance of these power indicators, both in our personal lives and in a historical and cosmic sense. She looks at the progression of the master numbers as the journey the soul takes as it seeks to master the different levels of understanding. Javane also analyzes the two single-digit numbers that, when added together, equal a master number, for example 2+9=11. These numbers within numbers "test" how well we have learned the lessons of the master numbers and whether we are ready to move on to the next level.

Book Description
Astrology is the Divine science that makes sense of the order of the Universe. In this book you will come to understand how mathematically numbers are the bases of astrology. The houses in astrology are the core essence that will give numbers meaning. Once the meanings of houses are understood in terms of the numerical order the perfection of the Universe is revealed. The houses reflect the purpose and meaning of life and how everything is interconnected and related. In this book the meanings of numbers and how they relate to each other come alive through the meanings of the houses. It will reveal our spiritual journey through life from birth to old age. The houses are divided into the categories of the 4 Aims of life, which are the 4 elements. This gives an understanding of the energetic flow of how life unfolds and the purpose and meaning of our lives. This is revealed from the understanding of Fire-Dharma, Earth-Artha, Air-Kama, and Water-Moksha. As the planets are placed into the houses the areas of one's life and destiny become clear as to the karmas of the soul. The houses the planets rule and the houses they are placed indicates the intricacies of an individual's life. The houses are assessed through the experiences of seasoned astrologer Joni Patry from many years of working with planets, signs, and houses in her personal life and with clients. In each chapter all 12 houses, are explored with deep and profound understanding leaving no stone unturned. The book is organized in this way: The houses are grouped according to the 4 elements or 4 Aims of life. Each house is analyzed as it is in relation to all the other houses giving deep perception into the meaning of numbers. For example, the 2nd house rules our personal finances. Therefore, the 2nd house to any house indicates financial gains from the house in question. The 8th house is the 2nd house from the 7th house indicating the partner's (7th house) money (2nd from the 7th house). Each house is understood by its relationship to other houses, and Bhavat Bhavam. For example, the 5th house represents children. Counting 5 houses from the 5th house is the 9th house. So the 9th house is our children's children or grand children. Each planet is analyzed and interpreted in all the houses. And the planet's rulership of each house is analyzed as it is placed in all 12 houses. Each house has 2 birth charts of famous individual's to explain the core essence of what the house means. Finally, all the planets are analyzed as they transit through all the houses. Future predictions are revealed through the understanding of all the transiting planets through all 12 houses. This is the most in-depth analysis of the understanding and meaning of the astrological houses, using numbers, signs and planets in astrology. Amazing and powerful, this will change the way you view astrology through and understanding of the Divine Order of the Universe!

Book Description
Ever since antiquity, philosophers have pointed to the supposed 'divine' character of music, and following Pythagoras's discovery of the mathematical basis of the musical scale, have posited a link between the mathematical order of music, the physical order of the universe and the moral order of human society. Both practicing artists and moralists came to believe that, by demonstrating an analogy with music, they could claim a dignity and value for their art--whether painting, architecture or sculpture--that it might otherwise lack. Why was this so? What was the point of such analogies? What advantages was music believed to enjoy, by comparison with the visual arts? Artists and critics frequently cited music as a manifestation of God-given order to which visual arts should aspire. But on what evidence was this belief in the inherently systematic character of music based; and in practical terms, how might visual art seek to emulate any such divine order or system? In what way might Gothic cathedrals have been based on systems of harmonic proportion? How did Poussin's search for a compositional principle derived from antique 'modes' in music resemble, or differ from, Palladio's attempts to embody musical 'harmonies' in architecture? And how did each artist conceive of the sense and value of such analogies? Systematic answers to such questions have hitherto been lacking, and, for the first time, the author makes direct and detailed comparisons between musical and pictorial practices in the long period covered by the book. He also provides a broad analysis of changes in the character of the analogies drawn at different times, using in his analyses critical and philosophical sources as well as evidence about artistic and musical practice. "That divine order" will be of interest to art historians and musicologists, to practicing artists and musicians and to students of cultural history.

Book Description
Mark's out of the military, these days, with his boring, safe civilian job doing explosives consulting. But you never really get away from war. So it feels inevitable when his old army buddy Jason comes calling, with a lucrative military contract for a mining job in an obscure South-East Asian country called Quanlom. They'll have to operate under the radar-Quanlom is being torn apart by civil war, and the US military isn't strictly supposed to be there. With no career prospects and a baby on the way, Mark finds himself making the worst mistake of his life and signing on with Jason. What awaits him in Quanlom is going to change everything. What awaits him in Quanlom is weirdness of the highest order: a civil war led by ten-year-old twins wielding something that looks a lot like magic, leading an army of warriors who look a lot like gods. What awaits him in Quanlom is an actual goddamn dragon. From world-renowned artists Asaf and Tomer Hanuka (twins, whose magic powers are strictly confined to pen and paper) and Boaz Lavie, The Divine is a fast-paced, brutal, and breathlessly beautiful portrait of a world where ancient powers vie with modern warfare and nobody escapes unscathed.
