Volume two is based on the Jungian interpretation of the 12 steps for the initiation of a capacity the two-hemisphere brain achieved 100,000 years ago, leaping to a new qualium level of consciousness by integrating its subjective and objective cognitive modes (gnosis and science). A critical mass of humanity is already inventing and building a new self-reflective, living system that can meet the challenge of the environment to turn vision into action - though time is running short.

We have entered what is called the "biological century" and a new biopolitics has emerged to address the implications for America's collective value system, our well-being, and ultimately, our future.

What is embryonic stem cell research? Why is it so controversial? What is its relationship to human cloning? Events are moving so fast and biotechnology seems so complicated that many of us don't have an informed opinion about issues that are remaking the human future before our very eyes.

"So wenig als möglich sitzen; keinem Gedanken Glauben schenken, der nicht im Freien geboren ist und bei freier Bewegung, in dem nicht auch die Muskeln ein Fest feiern!" Der Philosoph Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) war kein Mann des Schreibtischs. Er hielt es nur dort aus, wo es Wanderwege gab: am Meer oder in den Bergen, "wo selbst die Wege nachdenklich werden". Seine Gedankengänge dagegen führten ihn in wegloses Gelände. Vorbei an schwindelerregenden Abgründen, in völlige Einsamkeit und schließlich in die Region der Gipfel und des ewigen Eises.

How to Love the Universe is a new kind of science writing by an author truly enamored of the world around him. In 10 short chapters of lyrical prose - each one an ode to a breathtaking realm of discovery - Stefan Klein uses everyday objects and events as a springboard to meditate on the beauty of the underlying science.

From ventilators to brain implants, medicine has been blurring what it means to die. In a lucid description of modern neuroscientific thinking, Zeleznikow-Johnston explains that death is not the loss of breath, but of personal identity – that the core of our identities is our minds, and that our minds are encoded in the structure of our brains. On this basis, he explores how recent discoveries now offer us all the chance of preserving our minds for future revival. Whether they discovered cures or fought for justice, we are grateful to those of our ancestors who helped craft a kinder world.

To listen to most pundits and political writers, evolution, stem cells, and climate change are the only scientific issues worth mentioning and the only people who are anti-science are conservatives. Now for the first time, science writers Dr. Alex B. Berezow and Hank Campbell have drawn open the curtain on the left’s fear of science. As Science Left Behind reveals, vague inclinations about the wholesomeness of all things natural, the unhealthiness of the unnatural, and many other seductive fallacies have led to an epidemic of misinformation.

David A. Grandy's book moves from the scientific to the existential, from Einstein to Merleau-Ponty, from light as a phenomenon to light as that which is constitutive of reality. To measure the speed of light is to measure something about the way we are measured or blended into the cosmos, and that universal blending predetermines our measurement of light speed in favor of a universal or constant value.

Written for both the layman and the professional scientist, The Dimensional Structure of Consciousnessopens an astounding world and points out that further progress of science depends upon a transcendence of the material world. Samuels Avery opens a 'Pandora's box'... and presents a 'through the looking glass' glimpse of the structure of consciousness as the basis of our human experience. Written by Samuel Avery, author of The Buddha and the Quantum.

Most people have heard about quantum physics and its remarkable, well-nigh bizarre claims. And most people would assume that quantum reality describes a world quite different from ours. In this book, David A. Grandy shows that one can find quantum puzzles, or variations thereof, in the backyard of everyday experience.

Filosofía: el término suena fascinante, hermoso, de algún modo romántico y armonioso y, al mismo tiempo, como un gran esfuerzo intelectual. Sin embargo, en realidad la filosofía no es ni especialmente romántica ni especialmente agotadora. Es cierto que hay que utilizar el cerebro, y quizá algunas cosas excedan el sentido común normal, pero básicamente la filosofía sólo significa interesarse por las personas y el mundo.

Africa, a continent teeming with diversity, culture, and history, has long been a destination for explorers seeking knowledge and enlightenment. While often portrayed through the lens of its natural wonders and political struggles, Africa has also been a crucible for intellectual exploration.

В этом эссе Бён-Чхоль Хан анализирует современного человека, окруженного бесконечными нарративами, повествованиями и историями. Однако, несмотря на эту бурю смыслов вокруг, мы, кажется, утратили возможность чувствовать и понимать истинное повествование — и оказались в "постнарративном мире". Цифровое общество полностью подчинено информации, и с каждым днем ускоря ется процесс «денарративизации». Поток информации, который, по сути, является бушующим океаном данных, "удушает дух" истории.

Regarding your life and your brief existence on Earth, is that all there is? If you have ever felt that there is more here than an exclusively physical reality, you may be surprised to discover that scientific data from astronomy, quantum physics, biology, neuropsychology and cosmology actually confirms your intuition. With unusual clarity and humor, Dr. Shawn Adair Johnston reveals the utter failure of current science, based on an exclusively physical model of the universe, to account for the origin of the cosmos, human DNA, consciousness, free will or criminal behavior.

जाणीवपूर्वक वास्तव जग जाणताना, कल्पिताच्या जगाचेही स्वरूप जाणताना, वास्तवाचे आणि कल्पिताची जगं एकमेकाला छेदतात ते तपासताना सापडतो निसर्ग-नियमांचा प्रकाश. या प्रकाशात सारं काही स्वच्छ होतं - काय होऊ शकतं, काय होऊ शकत नाही आणि आपल्याला काय करता येतं.
