Download or read book A Fundamental Mistake written by Graham Cliff and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2012-06-01 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does it puzzle you that, despite ever-increasing rules, controls and counter-measures, antisocial behaviour is seemingly spiralling out of control? Why have there been riots in Britain? Why is law enforcement failing to make our society a better place in which to live? Have our politicians lost the plot? Are our values wrong? A Fundamental Mistake explains why a change of direction is needed in society's thinking about how to get people to behave themselves; it also offers a carefully argued strategy by which to achieve this. The emphasis needs to shift away from coercion and punishment, and towards inducement and reward. The remarkable thing is that although we already have the necessary knowledge, it's not put to good use. Taking a fresh approach, Graham Cliff draws on mainstream behavioural psychology and applied ethics to make his case for challenging some of our time-honoured cultural assumptions and practices. Be prepared to re-think your position. Despite the weightiness of the subject, this is a book for everyone because it works up from first principles in a readily readable way. No expertise is needed to follow the flow from the basics of human nature to the way our minds work, then through the web of customs and rules that make up society, on to government, laws and punishment, and finally to how and why things might be done differently. Nobody will agree with everything that A Fundamental Mistake has to say, because that's what debate is all about. However, it's as well to remember this: when it comes to tackling antisocial behaviour, it's not enough just to get tough – we must get clever, too.

Download or read book CORRECTION OF FUNDAMENTAL MISTAKES OF QUANTUM MECHANICS written by LIU KEDIAN and published by American Academic Press. This book was released on 2023-06-09 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the physical meaning of Planck’s constant h? The Bohr’s Hydrogen atom model is known to be full of holes but what is the reasonable new model? The objective and subjective reasons causing the ultraviolet catastrophe are never analyzed and clarified. What is the difference when the de Broglie’s matter wave behaving in longitude wave and transverse wave? The EM wave is said no medium being needed, but how to explain so that the propagation speed is thus equal to wave oscillating speed, i.e., the propagation speed is synchronized with oscillating speed, then the wave is stationary like standing wave both in longitudinal direction and transversal direction? Quantum mechanics has many fundamental mistakes, imperfects or inconsistent as above questioned. This book intents to correct some crucial and evident mistakes of quantum mechanics as above mentioned, to solve key problems and to derive sound logical conclusions through theoretical and practical analysis, synthesis and derivation based on phenomena, physics laws and physical realities. Thus, conclusions through strenuous rigorous derivations are drawn. For example, the physical meaning of Planck’s constant h is perfectly deduced and clarified as the integral of energy over one cycle of EM wave per wave frequency; the photon is proven not existed; the assertion of de Broglie’s matter wave is proven untenable; a most reasonable novel atom model is derived by rigorous logical deduction, etc.

Download or read book The Baptism of Jesus the Christ written by Ralph Allan Smith and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2010-04-05 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The baptism of Jesus by John the Baptizer is one of the theologically richest narratives in the Gospels, touching the transition from the old to the new covenant, the doctrines of water and Holy Spirit baptism, and the doctrine of the Trinity, to name only the most significant of topics. In The Baptism of Jesus the Christ, Ralph Allan Smith addresses each of these areas, aiming in particular to respond to James D. G. Dunn's view that Jesus' baptism and the gift of the Spirit are fundamentally distinct events, to revive John Calvin's view of the baptism of Jesus as central to understanding Christian baptism, and to suggest directions for re-thinking the doctrine of God's attributes in the light of the fully personal interaction of Father, Son, and Spirit reflected in the baptismal narrative.
