Book excerpt: Bizarre events disturb the quietude of Gatestown; in fact, something extraordinary is happening to the entire world. There are widespread computer problems; poltergeist phenomena; strange deaths; hyperspace effects; sudden floods; suspected alien invasion; and, in particular, NASAs computers have frozen with hieroglyphics on the screens, incomprehensible to the experts. The puzzle slowly unfolds throughout the story and is essentially solved by a teenage computer wizard named Alvin. Is this an alien invasion or is it a gigantic error by an extraterrestrial civilisation and Earth has haplessly become a victim? The story is based on mainly valid science but is not too technical for the layman. In fact, the Intergalactic Travel Project that is revealed could be achieved practically.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Properties of Feelings is a read beyond comprehension into the unknown shadows of the universe. Being beyond strength and imagination I cannot explain it further this author has seen the best of the world. It bleeds is the strength and commitment of this book. Believing is the end of everything is the statement of this book. How can I survive is the question this book attempts to solve. Now I will tell you to look no further if you are exploring the universe and in search of answers to the impossible. Why can’t I believe is the question we most often ask in a universe that says the answers aren’t there. Keep trying and if you think the answers aren’t there ask again. Ever wonder where your feelings come from? I cannot explain it but your feelings are real and the universe will support this idea. It isn’t the idea that you are real it is the idea that feelings make it so. Belief is supported through strength and courage and conviction. Heart is everything in a world of plenty. Life begins and ends on a notation that sings. Politics is everything to a philosophy that ordains it. Now I must excuse this book as far as I can tell it believes in something called the notation. But enough about that if you believe in something you believe in your feelings. Ask more about them and you will find them in this book. Properties of feelings is a manuscript that feels.”

Book excerpt: Long before it took the home video game console market by storm, Sega was already an arcade powerhouse.

Drawing on interviews with former developers and hundreds of documents, this history follows the rise of Sega, from its electromechanical machines of the mid-1960s to the acquisition of Gremlin Industries to its 2003 merger with Sammy Corporation. Sixty-two of Sega's most popular and groundbreaking games are explored.

Download or read book Thinking Film written by Richard Kearney and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2023-06-29 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hailed as one of America's original art forms, film has the distinctive character of crossing high and low art. But film has done more than this. According to American philosopher Stanley Cavell, film was also a place where America in the 1930s and 1940s did its thinking, a tradition that was taken up and enriched throughout world cinema. Can film indeed think? That is, can film do the work of philosophy? Following Cavell's lead to think along the tear of the analytic-continental traditions, this book draws from both sides of the philosophical divide to reflect on this question. Spanning generations and disciplines, pondering everything from art house classics to mainstream blockbusters, Thinking Film: Philosophy at the Movies aims to fling open the doors to this conversation on all sides. Inquiring into both philosophy's word on film and film's word to philosophy, the interdisciplinary dialogue of this book traverses the conceptual and the particular as it considers how film catalyzes our thinking and sets us talking. After viewing the world through film, we find our world--and ourselves--transformed by deeper understanding and new possibilities. This book aims to provide a novel and engaging way in to thinking with and about this enduringly popular art form.
